Gayle thank you. Yes I do track my anxiety and depression scores almost daily using the tools here at psychcentral (see "quizzes"). Perhaps my depression is seasonally related - it has been very cold recently, so there's little exposure to sunshine. I think my suffering is more existential...I just can't seem to get back on my feet emotionally, its as though there is nothing for me to look forward to...
