I'm getting better, less and less mood swings and just feel overly better. I feel my job is therapy for me now. I got my own truck, no longer teaming. I'm all by myself, my PDoc doesn't like that idea, but it's working for me. I'm out on the open road now, seeing the country by myself is a great feeling, however I do feel I may become anti-social at somepoint because of the lack of human communication. But overall I'm feeling so much better!

Happy to hear you are feeling better. Nothing like having hope again is there?

Try a little people therapy once in a while though, just to keep you in practice.

chandlerT660 that's great news! I'm so happy to hear you're feeling better. Maybe you can get your people therapy when you stop at restaurants for meals along the road.

Great! It really helps and accelerates your healing when things look up for you. I'm sure that being out and about is good for your soul too

That is good to hear. I can understand why the job is therapy if you drive a big rig. My husband drives one and I have gone with him a few times. If you stop for a bite to eat or if you stop for the night or weekend at a truck stop take a little bit of time then to socialize with other drivers, or even possibly when waiting in line at the fuel desk if the line is moving slow.
