Only talking to my dog today

Does anyone else "cocoon" when they are depressed? i.e., run away and hide under the covers in bed and refuse to acknowledge the presence of any other human?

I had to do that for a few hours yesterday. I couldn't help it - didn't mean to freak out Mum but I just became incapable of doing anything but cocooning. It worked though, and I emerged, not quite a butterfly, but a little improved.

I hate depression and I hate being weak. I kind of hate everything except my dog. He has been so lovely and staying with me at all times, letting me cuddle him <3 <3 <3 I do not want to live longer than my dog xx
