Wow Rachel, I've been gone since September from Blogit

I need to catch up with your life and stories. Yours was always my favorite blog. I am so sorry you are feeling down. I've been going through some stuff too lately that I will write about. Maybe blogging again will help. I am also going to a Psychiatrist. I tried to stop taking the pills, thinking it would be better to be pill free but that was kind of stupid.

I think writing a list like that is a good idea.

Anyway, I got a lot of catching up to do

Sometimes we all need a little help.

Peace and love be with you.

Peace Rachel...

I always hate the idea of talking to an outsider, and when I do, it always helps. just stopping by, I have been away too long...I'll try to get back more often, just read back a ways and seems like you are having quite a time of it.

If it helps any, I was totally against going to any form of counselling for years until I finally went when my last relationship ended. It actually did help. Just talking to someone totally neutral was wonderful. Good luck!

By any standards that is a long and draining list that would have sapped most people but you are still standing and how it can be easily told that you are strong. Take care and good luck.

You've had a lot to deal with. It sounds like a good idea to make a list to  focus your own mind.  Perhaps you should make a list of the outcomes you want too. Take care and good luck

you are probably thinking that you are stuck with depression for the rest of your life and right now you can't see the bright side. I also had depression so I know what you are going through. It's an awful place to be.The thing that helped me is that I told myself that I had to go through the motions of life even if I didn't feel like it. I had to keep up with the daily routine even if I could feel no joy or no hope. Your world right now seems dark and gray and the things that you used to enjoy doing you can't seem to do anymore because your joy seemed to have exited out of your body. If you are feeling like this then you are not alone. Lots of people suffer from depression. I Think that all your disapointments and all the bad stuff that has happened to you in the last five years have just added up and has taken it's toll on you. You can get through this and you will. It may not happen overnight. Try to not be reclusive. Get yourself out of the house a little at a time, going for a walk is a good start and the easiest thing to do to get yourself going again. Fight it and hang in there.

trust me when I tell you

that talking about it with someone outside the situation will help.  You are strong, which is why you will get through this. Just remember to breathe.

Trust me. If you got through all that, this is a piece of cake.

I did that whole dump the good, the bad and the ugly stuff when I had postpartum depression too. Some questions you are like, gee I could be worse...and others you're thinking I am so screwed up... Good luck....it'll all be okay in the end.
