Fresia,
Baby steps are the key I suppose... aren't they?
I'm sorry to hear your T is gone for a while. In the past I've wanted to say, "Wait, let me pack my bags, I'll come with you."
Hang in there...

It is heartening to hear you speak of the same issues.
I guess my partner is sort of an example... she suffered for 12+ years with depression but came out of it and she is now in grad school and doing very well. I guess every day I ask, will I be able to do this? When will I get my energy back? When am I going to feel better?
