There was a shooting at my workplace.

...See more Hey everyone, i don't know why I feel like I need to get this off my chest, it's not like it's a secret or anything, but Monday there was a shooting in my workplace. Nothing major, technically, but two people were shot, and one of them has died. I was at school when this happened, so I didn't have to see what happened, but for some reason it's still scary to me. I was robbed at gunpoint at my workplace almost two years ago, and now this looks like it will be a reoccurring trend. Again, I'm not sure why I'm so shaken up about the shooting. It's not like I was there, it's just.. so surreal, you know? i just wanted to get this off my chest, thanks for reading this, if you did. Sorry for taking up your time haha.

Fluctuating depression? Is this normal?

...See more We all have some really hard days, but for me I'll have a pretty decent streak of feeling happy, but then it all boils over and I have one long, long crying session leading to some thoughts I'm not the proudest of to say the least. This sadness might be gone by the next morning or it might last through the next week or two. Maybe more. I was diagnosed with depression in the past, which was treated with medication, and I got a bit better. I'm off the meds now, but I'm not completely sure if this is normal or if this is just minor relapses or what. If I'm just being over-dramatic that would be better than knowing I'd have to go get medicine again, but I don't know how normal the extent of how intense the sadness gets is, if that makes any sense. Sorry if this is troubling or is a waste of your time.
