The Journey of a Survivor

My life has been turbulent…dramatic to say the least. Read a little, but use caution it contains many triggers.

Almost 3 months without depression.

I am on a good run—almost 3 months without any major depression. I am stable on my meds and therapy is going well. I have determined that not being depressed does not mean you are happy all the time. Since I don’t have the escape of sleeping 16 hours a day or the intrusive thoughts to buffer me form reality—it seems like the world is constantly in my face. There is no escaping reality. My pdoc forgot to tell me that not being depressed would be so much work!

June the 1st is going to be a big day for me. I graduate school, my parents arrive for a visit and I quit smoking. The stopping smoking is probably what scares me the most—I can handle the graduation and the parents.
