Default finally

I had a situation last night in which I was faced with a HUGE trigger, I let it hit me, cried, then moved on. I did not wallow at all. I realize that I am happy, a great person, and I will find happiness again.

My depression is back. I had a good couple of weeks, but now I'm feeling stupid, useless, blah, blah blah. It'll pass. I'm just really, really happy to see you getting better

Had a small twinge today. Thought of her being with the OM.

Lasted for about 4 minutes.

Hopefully, if all goes well she will begin moving out as soon as next week.

Oldgirl hang in there, it WILL pass. Depression, situational or chronic us hell to deal with. I thank God for the medications I take to deal with mine otherwise I don't know where I'd be right now. I still have some really bad days, but they do pass. Nothing scarier than wondering if the meds are pooping out.

Proud, good for you, more proof that healing is taking place.

Jayb, how are you doing today?

An inch better than yesterday, thank you. However, getting up was rough. I have other pressures to deal with. Job and finances. If it's not 1 thing, it's another.

I just have the feeling that I'm shellshocked. Don't know who I am or where I'm at. Just, there.

OldGirl are you going at it too hard with your exercising? Sometimes fatigue can mask itself as depression. Make sure you are getting lots of sleep. Do stretching every night to get the lactic acid out of your muscles, and drink lots of water. You'll start feeling better soon.

Look at us all.... the walking wounded.

TAM really is a triage for folks who's souls have been amputated.
