Hi everyone. I was really active on this forum last fall-- then the depression set in again. This time it's been different than ever before. More like the arctic than the deep dark woods. Anyway I'm back poking around here for the first time this year.

When I was posting before I always tried to be upbeat. Today's not gonna be that way. I haven't left the house in over 2 years except for appointments and grocery shopping. My pdoc moved away in April and they didnt find a replacement until this month. I've been having lots of anxiety lately-- which is a new thing for me-- and that just sucks.

My wife, who also suffers from anxiety and depression, didn't go in to work again today. She's an instructor at the local university. Classes started last week, but she hasn't been in since the first day of class. This morning my anxiety is through the roof, fearing she will lose her job, and then we'll be completely screwed.

Two good things: I have an appointment w/a new pdoc next Tuesday, and I'm making this post. Thanks for reading.
