...See more Here we are again you scoundrel! Again and again we are at constant odds. You are my mortal enemy, yes you! DEPRESSION! Now if I could only sword fight a a sad version of myself. The movie would be a reality. I've been battling depression my entire life, from the early loss of siblings, to the recent loss of my 10 year old pup. Now let's not confuse grief and depression. They are different, but one is constantly set in motion by the other, At least in my life. Right now I am struggling to stay in a emotionally stable place. Remembering part of a dream last night has sent me spirailing mid-work, in the work place. If I was in another room with people in it this would have gone much worse. Someone would have asked what's wrong, I would have had to attempt to explain which would have sent me spirialing further from emotionally stable. I choose to grieve properly after my dog died recently, and that turned into a massive depression, which is still stopping me mid day. Not sure what I need to do, bit I definitely need to get it out. I've lived alone for about 10 years since I was 22 with my dog. I took her everywhere I went if I could. She is an emotional support animal which I have due to a read skull injury a few years back. Now 32, after being extremely alone during the pandemic and losing her. I am lost I guess I am still grieving. But tension headaches, and migraines added to the mix aren't helping. Curious what other people do to avoid breaking down in these situations.
