Trying
I’ve been dealing with intense anxiety the last few days. Doing my best to divert my thoughts, relax, and be thankful for the good things in my life.
Foreign
A foreign emotion has made a place in my life. I’d forgotten what it feels like to be happy. I feel strong and positive for the first time in years. Reconnecting with an old friend, kind words, and just talking has lifted me up. It’s hard to put it into words how I felt before […]

Life is not fair, and yes I never expected that it would be that way.

Writing
I’ve tried to write on a regular basis lately. A friend mentioned how difficult that can be when you’re depressed. I tend to agree, although I’ve read books and articles that recommend channeling your feelings into your writing. I find that to be a sound idea that is much harder to do than it sounds. […]
Ugh…
Sad tonight. Feeling worthless. Just putting this here because its what I feel right now.
