Just a short note to let you all know that one more time my depression is trying it's darndest to take over - 2 weeks of he$$ but I am fighting hard.  I see a new therapist the afternoon as well as my Pdoc's nurse.

Coming here and letting each of you know that no matter how bad things look we can always make our way to the top of the ladder one more time is the message I want each of you to hold on to.

Also coming here and posting to all of you is very good therapy for me.

Don’t go down there.  shakehead

When you are not feeling great, your focus is on sending a positive message to other people. That is really admirable. I hope the appointments go well and that you feel better soon. Medved

I hope you feel better soon. It's a wonderful attitude you have even when depression feels like pulling you down. Wonderful to hear you keep fighting. Very positive. Thank you for sharing. Stay strong.

Awww! I'm so sorry Kitt!

I wish there was something I could do or say to make you feel better. You have ALWAYS been there for me when I needed you, and I'd love to return the favor. I'm sending comforting hugs your way, and I'm going to say a prayer for you to get past this as quickly as possible. It sucks when we get stuck in a "funk", as I like to call it.

You have an army of people here supporting you. Don't EVER forget how special you are Kitt! You are an amazing woman, with one of the biggest hearts I know. Just know we are all here for you, and pulling for you to get through this.

Sending much love and hugs to you,

Fox

As I sit here reading the support from each of you I do not feel alone, but hopeful again.  I saw the new therapist - she is a Psychologist/Chaplain - now maybe this will be a good combo for me.  yeah I liked her and she promised me she would not forget that my greatest loss was the death of our son in a horrific car crash.  I have lost 14 of my family members over the years which leaves only me left on my side of the family but I am blest to have my 3 adult children, my grandchildren, my hubby of 41 years and my hubby's family.  :-)

I also met with my Pdoc's nurse and we are going to tweak my meds a bit.  So I woke up feeling pretty good today - 30 minutes later I was crying but the cloud past by quickly and I kicked my feelings of guilt to the curb knowing I will get my house cleaned and I am not a terrible person for being sick the past 2 weeks.

The one thing we must always remember is  life is a flux, it keeps moving. We will continue our journey and as we move along we will become stronger and wiser.  God bless each of you.

Gentle Hugs,

Kitt

Good Luck Kitt...You have been through a lot and sometimes people need a little assistance to get through situations. Stay strong, ou have been through this before and you know you can come through it again.

Well here it is Monday and I am expecting way to much of myself seeing as a week ago today I was unable to stop crying and was on the couch all day unable to pull myself out of my funk.  Today I had plans but my anxiety sky rocketed and I ended up calling my hubby to come home early from work. 

How I hate the anxiety but know I need to keep battling on in learning to accept that I am OK and I am not laying on the couch in tears but instead watered my flowers on the deck, and washed the patio door - such simple tasks but right now just doing the simple things is a victory for me.

Any prayers would be appreciated as sometimes I feel like I am losing this struggle.

Gentle Hugs,

Kitt

We are still pulling for you. This too shall pass....xo

Doing stuff around the house is a big deal!!! Looking at the things that you were able to do...and letting go of the things that will have to wait a bit is perfectly okay.:)

You are going to pull through this...like you said, just since last week you have mad great strides!

I am glad that you had positive appointments with your therapist and nurse...and know that you are taking the rights steps in the right direction...and that we are cheering you on all the way.:)

S.C.

p.s had a little cry-fest myself this morning (stress build up and lack of sleep)...needed it, and I feel better for it...we can cry it out together, say 10:00 your time tomorrow?;p

To my dearest friend Kitt

Sorry for the late reply to your post I have had a lot on the last few days. Sorry to read that your depression and anxiety have raised their ugly heads again, I am glad that you have found a new therapist that you feel you can work well with and that they understand that is important.

You are a strong person and have had to deal with a lot but I know and have faith that you can get through this tough time and we are behind you all the way so do keep posting and let the members here know how you are getting on. Try and stay in the moment the best you can and maybe look into mindfulness? I had my second session last night and really think it is going to help and dare I say that I find it a lot more useful than CBT.


Kitt please do lean on us and lets us support you as you have supported others here on HW my thoughts and prayers are with you my friend and I send big hugs. Take Care

Ah, thank you so much for the support.  Yesterday went from bad to worse - but I finally went to bed and my dog hopped up next to me- for about 12 minutes.  However he then hopped down and slept on the floor all night right next to me.

It is amazing how animals can sense when they need to stand gaurd over you. 

New day today and the electrician is here installing a new chandlier in our front entry way. I think it was about time as ours is 28 years old so that is something fun for today.

Heading upnorth later in the week and leaving my comfort zone is worrying me but I will be OK -  I will be with my hubby and children.  I always fear breaking down in front of my kids and grandkids. 

I am taking all of you with me on my shoulder as my angels.

Happy Tuesday

Kitt
