I recently posted an update on my Facebook page, finally coming clean to everyone about the state of my mental health. The feedback and support has been overwhelming. I was really touched by what a former high school friend said. I sent her a message and thanked her for her kind gesture. We got a bit of a conversation going, and I finally summoned the courage to ask if she wanted to meet up for a coffee and catch up, and she said she would love to and we plan on meeting this Friday. This isn't a date, since she's already married and has a family of her own, and I am a bit nervous about it.

A couple of weeks ago, I also posted on my timeline that it was 20 years ago that I got my first job at Montana's, and I tagged my friends and uploaded some pictures. We all swapped some memories we had (some not suitable for message boards).

Last week, I started a Facebook group for all of the alumni in the Ottawa area, and uploaded all of my pictures. Nobody has really said anything (there are A LOT of pictures to go through), and I would like to get a reunion together. The thing is, I suck at planning these things, and a lot of people have moved and moved on with their lives and have families now. I feel sad a lot about this, because I miss everyone and I sort of wish I was younger again so we could relive the fun times.

I'm glad I did what I did, but I still feel lonely sometimes.
