…and as it turns out, probably my last. Apparently, I’m not that screwed up after all.
But I rather enjoyed it! I got to talk about myself for an hour, and she really listened to me and asked me really great questions. It was really nice. She said that it seemed like I had everything under control, and she suggested that I kept writing my journal, and if I started going down again, I’d just give her a call.
So I’m slowly getting off the meds and I’m getting my life in order.
The thing is that my depression was intimately linked to some really hard stuff that were going on in my life a while ago. Now that I have sorted out most of that, and I have meds to keep my diurnal rhythm in order, I really do feel good.
I’m happy to hear that you are swell too, Turp! Yeay us!!
soda, the orignal Swedish chick… I’m glad you went to therapy (although I didn’t know that you needed it), and I’m even more glad that you don’t need to go back.
soda, can I give you a (virtual) hug? Taking the step of going to therapy is an incredibly frightening experience, and I think you’re so brave for going. I also think it’s beyond smashing that you’re doing well and probably won’t have to go back.
Woohoo for soda! ((((((((((soda))))))))))
And, of course, woohoo for Turpentine, who is also feeling swell! ((((((((((Turp)))))))))
