Hoping you enjoy your new job!
Lethargy is a problem I always seem to have as well.
My best to you

Yeah the blogs are great.
Number poetry would be interesting :)

Thanks so much everyone :)
Hen- Thanks!! lol who knows? We could be :)
Whatcha- Haha yeah that would be a fun experience trying to get a bear through airport security :D Wow that's the biggest thing with airports, the security lines are always a pain.
Absent- Yeah it's weird isn't it? I'm sure the relative (a distant cousin, but blood relation) is homeless, or possibly worse. My mom hasn't heard from him in years.
You're very right about healthy fear! You really helped me put that in perspective :)
Jojin- I know what you mean. Just like many other types of illness mental illness can be caused by genes.
Thanks for your kind words :) I'm trying hard to focus on now rather than next week.
I have to say I feel bad having fun while others on DF are not...but my brother and I are taking plenty of pics that I'll share with you all soon. Hopefully that'll help others forget some of their problems.
Thanks so much to all of you! :)

Hey Nate.
I hope you decide to come back soon. I do understand needing a break though.
Take care of yourself

*HUGS* for you Broken!
I know you'll be ok.

Hi Duck.
Yeah, unfortunately sometimes we just have to trudge through life and hope that something good happens one day. Hope that maybe the depression will just completely vanish suddenly.
Sorry, that isn't very uplifting I know!
Of course, as you said just gotta keep hoping for the best...who knows, maybe there will be a cure for this in our lifetime.
That's just enough to keep me going.
Take care Duck :)

Hey Nate.
Yeah, this forum is all about support, both giving and receiving.
Like you, I've found that just about everyone here is great. There are a couple of exceptions, but I wouldn't want to go into that on your blog :)
It's a pleasure to have met you here.
Take care,

Hi Lady M!
Yeah I can relate to what you are saying. I always give the standard "I'm ok" reply as well, even when I'm really feeling down. Except on DF, where I generally am more open about how I'm truly doing.
That's great that you have a good therapist.
HUGS,
-AG

Yeah no doubt it would be kind of scary.
You have a couple of weeks to prepare yourself though.
I think it's really cool and I'm very happy for you Jojin :)
-
Congrats Jojin! That's awesome :)
The anxiety... well unfortunately it has a way of trying to ruin our thoughts.
Don't let it though. You deserve to be excited about this :)
Take care,

Very good insights (yep, I read the whole entry :)
Funny, but I see DF as my common ground with everyone here who is dealing with depression in one way or another.
That's awesome you picked up some pencils again. Your art is very good and you clearly have a talent for drawing.
:)
Take care!

Hi WyldeWriter.
You're obviously very frustrated with life right now (I've been there many, many times).
I really hope you decide to stick around on DF.
Please keep in touch with us.

Wow she's great!
I wish I'd seen this earlier.

Hi Jojin!
It's good to see ya back :)
When I was very young, my grandmother suffered from dementia before passing away. It was very hard on my family, and such a sad thing to watch happen to someone :(
I have watched the documentary "Bully" as well. I wasn't really bullied at school, but a few of my friends were.
I really feel for them!
Take care and I'm very happy you're back :)

Hi Jamie.
I can definitely relate to that.
Some people just can't understand depression or any mental illness. It's very unfortunate.
I sleep (rather, try to sleep) a lot when I'm down, and yeah, like you said it's not because I want to. It's because I feel like crap and can't stand to be awake and depressed.
Hope you can feel a bit better soon :)
take care of yourself!

Hi Deepbleu.
I'm sorry for the depression, of course, but I really like that you describe how you are feeling poetically. It really is moving.
Take care of yourself.

Thank you Shmooey!
I'm very glad that you have some loved ones that are supportive of you.
I've always thought that it's better to have a few supportive family/friends than it is to have many people around who don't truly care....But then yeah, I feel like a burden to them precisely because they are supportive. Like I don't really deserve it.
Have a great weekend! :)

Hi LibraryLady!
What an uplifting entry :)
That's great that you can help yourself by helping others.
-
Hi and thanks Lady Mozzer :)
I'm really looking forward to the trip. It's too bad they haven't invented some type of teleportation device so I could just skip the plane altogether :)
Yeah, feeling like a burden is such a bad feeling isn't it? It's hard for me not to dwell on such thoughts when I'm so down.
Thank you for replying, and take care of yourself :)

Hi Duck.
I hope the klonopin helps you out.
I take it daily for anxiety and panic attacks. Works for me.
Take care of yourself :)

Cool thanks Absent :)
I don't have BPD but want to learn about it as a couple of my friends have been diagnosed.

Hi James.
I hope the new meds will help you out.
I like what you said about "stop thinking about getting well", and allow the depression to recede with the meds help (and time).
My best to you.
Take care

Hi Whatcha.
It's cool that you decided to make a blog. I think it's a good way of getting things off our chest.
Yeah, it's frustrating when others don't understand what it's like to have depression and anxiety.
That's awesome you got to visit your niece and nephew though.
I'll be visiting my family (including 2 nieces and 1 nephew, ages 1-5) out of state in a couple weeks.
Take care,

Hi Brokenme.
Sounds like you have a great therapist, and I'm glad you were able to talk about your feelings with her.
Take care of yourself, and *hugs* for you!

Hi Phan!
You know what you should do? Take a vacation. It doesn't matter where...
I've found that getting away for a while really helps me out.
I tend to lose interest in my hobbies...it's like they go in cycles, almost.
Take care!
