I'm doing pretty good. I'm trying to straighten out the chaos that took over my apartment when I was very depressed - piles of unfiled paperwork, areas of messiness. My place is looking a whole lot better, but there is a lot more to do.

I don't get as much done in a day as I plan. Then that starts to get me depressed. My new resolution is to be glad for what I do get done. This is so much better than when I was horribly down and used to do absolutely nothing for days at a time.

I don't know how to move quotes from other posters. (But I will learn.) I really feel for those of you above who are very down. I've been there and I understand. The seemingly endless struggle can be so demoralizing.

I've also been relieved of the daily suicidal thinking that was plaguing me for months. Recovery feels good. I know I have to work at it, if I want it to last.
