Things improved considerably yesterday when BF came around from having been in a very bad place. (I should write a post, because such times cause me very great confusion and fear, and I could really use some advice in specific areas of it. But it is hard.) Anyway, work yesterday was quite stressful (and before receiving the relieving text from BF, it was getting altogether too much and was close to sending me around the bend. Actually did send me around the block when I walked out! Lol, I'll take the block over the bend. ) Anyhow, have 4 days off. Actually prepared a real meal last night (first time in about a week and a half... lazy, the heat etc.). So far, so good.

(My mood (distinct from emotions) isn't determined by such times as these with BF, but damn, the stress. The aspect of feeling very overwhelmed it has in common with my depressions, but the other key indicators are missing. Just FYI. Compelled to share that for some reason. Clarification, maybe? It's like a lifting of a load, not like a coming out of depression.)
