I'm starting a new day!!!!!!!
For anyone who read my posts lately, I was concerned that I would end up in Hospital in order to to get my mind back in order.
With daily therapy I have managed to make baby steps back to a bit of clarity. I am at home, I am not at work, but it is a holiday anyway conveniently, and I don't have to do any outpatient treatment-allowing me to avoid Family Med. Leave.
My big sad thing is that I am not completely back on track, so there are things I can't do yet. I must have someone with me all of the time still and I can't drive. The driving is a big one for me. I had wanted to take my three teenagers on a day trip to the beach during this week off. I think it means more to me than them, but I only have a little over a year before they will be off to college.
I again meet with my therapist today. She will have input about the driving because she always reports to my pdoc afterwords. I hope. I think activity will speed up normal.

I'm so happy to hear that. I hope you continue to move forward. Don't be too upset at what you can't do and focus on the great things happening. I understand about your children. My daughter graduates in May and will be going to a college 2 hours away. I have some depression and anxiety about that but I'm working through it. Good for you!

That's good news, bluemountains!
I'm with Jennifer1967 -- focus on the forward steps. What you ARE doing. Don't worry about what is not yet. All in good time. It will come.

I'm happy for you....take things one day at a time and don't be afraid to ask for help.

Thanks for the nice stuff and well wishes-maybe not so well deserved but I'll take them.
I was a bit rough on my therapist today, I guess I just want all of the questioning behind me even though I know it's only what's best. Most of the time I just want to scream that I am doing better, enough for now!
Please all who are reading, know that this is just frustration talking and I working to get better.

Jennifer-many, many hugs-my oldest is in her junior year of college and my triplet boys will graduate next year from high school, so I feel your emotions! Btw, my daughter is two hours away and it hasn't been so bad. I think the first few months were the toughest.
