I figured this is mundane and pointless so I would post here.
I suffer from depression and sometimes have problems interacting with people. My job requires me to be in contact with many people daily. This combination causes me to feel the need to withdraw from people and “go into my own world”
I used to withdraw from the “outside world” and throw myself into the online world. Last year I decided to break that cycle.
When I felt it happening again I made a promise to myself, other than work Email and one message board that is helping me I was going to stay off the internet and channel my energy into what I like doing.
Now I’m back to my “old self” and am starting a class next month. It’s a non-credit course but in a field that has always had my interest. If I can get past the self-sabotage that I used to do (and with the therapy I had I know I can) I will start taking credit courses next year.
I promise not to drop off the face of the board again. Most likely I will be reading much more than posting.
