Its funny how you go along in life
and you think yep Im doing ok and then
it hits you slap bang in the face and says nope
your not and I will show you blah blah
why is it that for yrs I could hold it together
and now it seems I cannot even make it to the door
so to speak I am so broken right now I just want to curl up
under my bed and hide away unfortunatly I wont fit
its only 5 inches from the ground these days
I just want to feel safe and secure again somehow.

Giue it time. You will eventually find what works for you...this does not include getting a taller bed so you can hang out with the dust bunnies...good company they are not, but we are!

True, true, true!

How many times, even how many times each day do I go from semi-functional to frozen? At least I can take some comfort from the fact I've yet to permanently seize up; so far I've always returned to semi-functional sooner or later.

Thanks for posting this, Starrina!

Star... sorry you are feeling broken right now. As you can see you are not alone and you know you won't feel this way for ever. Just as the clouds that bring the rains come and go so shall the darkness you feel retreat again to reveal the sun. Be good to yourself and shelter yourself with kiindness until this storm passes.

Starina, I think we people are kind of like some of our body parts. Like eyes, even when they are doing really poorly, they funnel everything they've got into functioning at their highest capacity until one day, the light just goes off. I t hink that is kind of how depression works with a lot of people. After a while, the on swith just goes on strike.
don't get me wrong. It will get better. It seems like it will go on forever. But it won't. Huggs
Thanks for this!
