Well, it is happening. The grey clouds of depression are gathering. Stuff I think about is filtered and changed so it seems I can only see my thoughts in the worst light imaginable. But as long as I am self aware that this is the case (because I have gone through this so many times before) it makes it a little more bearable. I am temporarily waving goodbye to my uber energy and sad that my silly jokes have run off for a while to play in the sunshine where they belong. I am gathering together my support network (sisters, mental health care team, this forum, friends and cats). I would like to say that just because I am depressed does not mean I do not want to hear frow you all. I DO want to hear from you all. I probably will be reaching out a lot less, but that does not mean I am not reading and caring and thinking of you all, it just means my ability to send positive feedback is impared for a little while. If you could, I could e a little positive energy right now. Thanks for listening and being here for me.
