Hello everyone....
(((tgirl))) I will keep you and your husband in my prayers.
I'm sorry to have to say this, but I had a relapse this week. My dad was hospitalized on Monday after collapsing at home. I have been struggling with depression and just gave up. However, I don't want to go back. There's nothing there for me but more sadness. I'm disappointed in myself, but am holding myself accountable and also recommitting to recovery. I talked to my boss at work about how overwhelmed I have been and that was helpful. My dad is home from the hospital and while there are no conclusive answers to his problems, he seems better and that will have to be enough for now.
If I've learned anything, it's that I need to take care of myself. I need to be healthier and I need to accept the things that have happened this year for what they are...I can't change them and I have to stop wishing things had gone differently.
So, put me down for the next 24 hours, please. I'm back on the team.
