Went to the ocean today and burned my legs and arms with only about 30 minutes exposure. I got aloe and it feels good when I apply it but I have to reapply it every 15 min or so.
Good news! Really good news! My depression dissipated for about 30 minutes today while I was in the ocean. It was awesome to see everything in color again.
My mood has fallen again though so I'm back to where I started but it's ok. I had a glimpse of feeling myself for about 30 minutes which is a big win!
We're going to a big show and dinner tonight and an excursion tomorrow. Hard to believe 5 days of vacation are already done.
