Pharma Option

With all the drama in my life since Feb, I was always surprised I was not depressed. I'd be devastated, disappointed, hurt, drained, mad, tired, worried, cynical, sarcastic, determined, amused, frightened and numb - but when I reflected on how I felt I was not depressed. Well in the past two weeks I started to get depressed. Down with no cynical come back, down after talking with a friend, no reaction to good things happening, no exercise high and no excitement for an upcoming big event. I love Xmas and Advent and usually I am delighted to decorate, bake, and get overstimulated. This year I do not care a whit.

So today I finally threw in the towel and got some meds. Counseling again in Jan as well. I'm grateful I knew for me when I needed help. Of course that was a painful prior lesson!
