Surviving. Occupationally, my colleague and I won the best team if the year at the Electricity company we worked for. We helped set up, then run, a department that helped out people with genuine financial issues not get their electricity disconnected. I was helping people, using my brain and being creative coming up with ideas to make it work. My main role was that of a Case Manager with a bit of project management thrown in.

Sadly, my physical health deteriorated to the point where I had to resign and go on disability. The last thing I did as a Case Manager was make an acceptance speech for the award. I stopped working that day, had sick leave but as I just kept getting worse with the Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue it became clear I was not getting well anytime soon. I was practically bedridden for a couple of years. Then my mental health crashed.

Sorry for the long response.

Does happy music annoy you when depressed?
