@Soupe du jour...Your post seems to indicate you're in a better space today. A good night's sleep can work wonders. I hope the improvement continues.

@gina_re...I'm sorry you're having such doubts about your relationships. I think most people occasionally harbor some insecurities, so you're certainly not alone in that respect. CBT & DBT work was helpful for me but, like BethRags, I did my work with a therapist.

@whatever2013...I hope you had a better night's sleep last night & are able to get out & about today. Having Hush kind of forces you to get outside, I'm guessing. There was a three-year period when we didn't have a dog (we had our previous dog euthanized due to old age & couldn't imagine replacing her). I found it much easier to isolate during that time. Isolation isn't my friend when I get depressed...

It's almost 80F here...Unreal for April! My partner wants me to drain & run the snowblower dry, but I'm certain that will jinx us! My sister's birthday is April 17, & there have been a few occasions when we've had measurable snowfalls. Anyways, I hope everyone is in the midst of a tolerable day...though a GREAT day would be preferable.
