In the last eight years it seems like spring going into summer has not been very kind for me. I've had depression and anxiety during that season. Also I've had medical procedures at this time of year and bad things have happened. I was hoping that this year would be an exception, but it has not been so far.

I know the feeling of seeing others having fun. At this time of year I have to have the windows open at where I live and I can hear all kinds of noise. Plus there are a couple of houses on the other side of the alleyway that I live at that are families. So they would have their stuff going on in their back yards (that faces me) with all kinds of kids and guests. All of that going on while I feel cooped up and alone. And they are very loud, too.

Maybe by September, things might get better. One can only hope.
