Positivity Thread ~ Anything Positive Happen Today?

[RiverLight 11,934]

Hello DF peeps! I thought we could use a positivity thread to share anything positive that happened today, or maybe an inspirational quote that helped you, or anything positive that may help others, or really anything positive that you feel like sharing!

For starters, I will share one positive thing for today. Today I am inspired in my career for the first time in months. I went through a lull after many disappointing interviews that led to no jobs. Actually, I was really pretty depressed about that outcome for a while and stopped trying so hard in my job. But today I found a professional certification course that I am really excited about. This course will help lead my career in the direction that I want and land the kind of job that I want. So I can't wait! =) YAY!

That's awesome, River!

Today I'm going to meet a friend who I haven't seen in ages.  I'm nervous about it but also happy.  I hope it will go well.

Oh I'm happy for you, Cat!!! That's so great. I hope you have a wonderful time.. there's nothing like catching up with old friends. =) I'm sure the nervousness will drop quickly enough. HUGS!

I talked with a couple of friends and I got to swim today, it's been a decent day.

Also I got more sleep than usual.

@RiverLight @CoolCat7

I'm happy for both of you. Good Luck!

Not to high jack the thread, but I am drinking a Red bull now :) I'm going to try easing my med withdrawal by taking a fourth of my remeron dose, so I can handle a little more caffeine right now.

An antidepressant warning about supposedly increasing suicide risks in teens and young adults finally includes real information about how these conditions increase these risks in the first place Finally 12 years after the horror of black box warnings things have improved slightly.

Updated warning

Antidepressants may increase the risk of suicidal thoughts or actions in children, teenagers, and young adults. However, depression and certain other mental problems may also increase the risk of suicide. Talk with the patient's doctor to be sure that the benefits of using escitalopram outweigh the risks.
