I took this job back in February, coming back to work after 18 months on disability. Part of me really wants to do a good job and care about my work--it's like the old me shining through.

Then there is this side of me, the severely depressed side that is like, why did you come back to doing this. You don't care about this. You don't care about getting your work done. Fighting the depression is near impossible.

And just to complain a little, it's freaking hot in my office and I don't understand why the A/C isn't working better.

Oh, I hope I can stay on task today. I have so many deadlines coming up.

Hi Seesaw,
Our mind is very tricky. We need to learn how to manage it. Some days I feel I do not have strength at all or that even simply challenges are unbearable. I used to be strong in the past and fought many battles. However, I feel weak

I went to a colleague and asked for some help with the project I was working on. I think I just have to get more used to writing for this organization. My learning curve is not going as fast as I would like.
