An odd day all around. The depression continues to slowly worsen. Hopefully, I’ll soon be on a new, third, cocktail to see if it helps.
In the midst of this I went to get a sandwich at a place I frequent. I asked the server how she was doing and she said much better now that I was there – she looked forward to seeing my happy face. Made me feel great, but I couldn’t help think about the masks we hide behind…
Not a half hour later I got a call from a salesmen at the Dillard’s department store where we shop. He just wanted to check on me, no sales coming up, nothing. Just had me on his mind. Another nice boost for the day.

hmmm…maybe what she sees is the REAL you…and what you expect from yourself…is an old habit. Depression, on or off meds, can become a habit for me. I am USED tobeing sad all the time…making a choice NOT to be sad. To just accept my life as it is, and sit in it for a while, is both empowering…and frikking hard 🙂
Good luck my friend. and remember…you are exactly where you are supposed to be in this moment.

A lot to think about here. Thanks!
We often don’t realize how what we say or do impacts others. It is quite touching that these two people let you know today that you matter to them. I am so happy for you.
