Midweek Blues

Does anyone else get consistent midweek depression? Like, it doesn't matter how good or bad things are, you just feel less in control of managing your down mood on a Wednesday or Thursday, and some weeks it gets VERY bad. I don't even get Monday blues. Mondays feel good, at least for me.  Is this normal?  For me, it gets so bad that at least once every month I feel like un-aliving.

Yes i think mid week blues is a real thing.... 

usually Mondays are a new week- new things ....   but if this week is not going well or are going great it is Wednesday when really we  feel it....

Thursday is a double edge sword ... it can be good as end of week is near ..... or it can be pressure like a deadline to finish the week.    Any day can be good or bad often it is how we look at it.

I haven't noticed a pattern for myself of certain days of the week feeling better or worse. But I could understand mid-week feeling worse if weekends are pleasant and it's far away from the weekend in both directions. (On Monday, you're still in the afterglow of the weekend. On Friday, you have the weekend ahead of you to look forward to.)
