I have suffered from depression since the day I was separated from my father, Age 13.
On and off, of course.
Just came out of one that lasted three years. Do to retirement and feeling unproductive. and the fact that my wife still works. Years away from retirement.

So now I'm the houseAZZhole. And I don't do it well.
She still deals with the laundry and dirty dishes. I can't . And cleans after me sometimes.

In spite this situation, I've recovered I think fully to my old self.
I do stuff. A lot of stuff a 68yrs old won't do.
I want to live. Not for my Mother (who passed in June). Not for my kids, relatives or friends.
I want to live for my life. I'm happy to be alive and hyper.
I might not be the real Superman. But I'm the Old Fart of the Century.
My secret?. Avoid old people like the pest. Roam around the young. Both rub on you.
