    i’m trying to limit myself to 10 minutes of brooding in the AM and 10 minutes of panic at night even if someone offers up a lil anxiety or slice of sadness during the day i’m like “no thank you Wendy, i dont want to overdo it and go inpatient again!”

    It's not a memorable Thanksgiving unless you've been impatiented. 😆😞🤪

    Faint depression with Christmas music in the background. Sheer torture. But sometimes you get so down with it, you end up laughing. Not a normal laugh, not the laugh of your youth. But that grunt that turns into a howling belly laugh as you realise this faint depression is here to stay.

    Might as well add some bells at Christmas and laugh along with all the other faintly depressed adults you now share your life with. Actually, do I know anyone who isn't suffering some kinda depression? Nah. At this age almost everyone has been caught, you can hear it when they laugh.... that low guttural laugh....

    Merry Christmas everyone! Xx

    @FeelinFooFoo Sorry to hear about your cat. She was a beauty. It's the third year without my "firstborn" cat and the pain of losing her still hits me hard on occasion.

    The Christmas season is a lonely time for me. Don't really know why. I have a spouse and kids at home, so shouldn't I be happy? But at work I feel downright sad. Everyone else seems to be in the spirit and spreading joy. I just fake it.

    Fake it till you make it. Or die. The story of my life

    Like the neighbor's car alarm just went off and dogs barking like cray, so now I'm on edge and can't fall asleep.
