I haven't been posting like I normally do because I am struggling with depression. The last thing I want to do is depress people. I do read through Roll Call everyday so I know what is going on. I am also reluctant to post because I don't want to infringe on other people's conversations.

My despondency seemed to come out of nowhere. Usually I get sad in the winter months and can get through it without much problem. I am not sure why it is really bad this year. All I want to do is sleep and do nothing. My head also feels really weird.

I got two exam deferrals, which is a relief, since I am in no shape to write. I am thinking about taking next semester off. My mother thinks it will make my mood worse, unless I find something to replace class with.
