And listen to upbeat music, watch comedic movies, and read whimsical books.<BR/><BR/>Plus, spend as much time with kittens and puppies as possible.twobuyfourhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18195751674340015830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8040734.post-8756736248083973142008-10-22T13:19:00.000-07:002008-10-22T13:19:00.000-07:00Wow...I read your post that you linked back to. I...Wow...I read your post that you linked back to. I feel that things happen for a reason, and you meet people in all sorts of venues for lessons and gifts too. I have struggled for a few years now with depression and anxiety...and you're so very right. There is a lot of fear in admitting to a mental health problem...and the worry of being stigmatized by others also. It took me a very long time, and almost a complete "breakdown" to force my hand to finally seek intervention. I wanted so much to be happy and grateful...and, like you, couldn't understand why my life seemed so settled and okay yet I was still unable to find my "happy". Good for you, and thanks for sharing. I was meant to find you, and read your story. It has brought me great comfort...and you're freaking hilarious too.<BR/>from your one and only follower:)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16081240770654599827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8040734.post-78814200596408770002008-10-22T13:03:00.000-07:002008-10-22T13:03:00.000-07:00Take heart, AM: it's not just you.Feeling "oogy" i...Take heart, AM: it's not just you.<BR/>Feeling "oogy" is pretty common, and there is always the bounce-back phenomenon that helps show that you just had the "oogies". Oogies make us human. After all, who wants to be a robot? <BR/>I think you are a little wrong: chocolate is a cure-all that tastes yummy. My fatter face and bigger pants are badges of honour awarded by the chocolate gods!<BR/>Take it easy!gmanSethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13717266069543942588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8040734.post-18176691309512115952008-10-22T12:56:00.000-07:002008-10-22T12:56:00.000-07:00I'm bothered by the decreasing light, and have had...I'm bothered by the decreasing light, and have had great results with a SAD therapy light - see the top of http://www.exploreshoppingonline.com/tanning-therapy-lights.html and available at the health shop in the Horwoods Bldg in Whitehorse. It's one of the best $180 I've spent - while I enjoy a tanning booth more (MUCH more :) ), it's more expensive and not as effective when it comes to SAD.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8040734.post-77786090675105491242008-10-22T04:17:00.000-07:002008-10-22T04:17:00.000-07:00Hang in there.
