Can a person choose to be happy?
I am still trucking along, almost two weeks sober. But holy goodness anxiety and depression have really taken hold. Day seven was actually the worst, I stayed up all night worrying about everything totally out of control with impending dread.
Anyway I stayed home today from work because my thoughts are all over the place and I just feel so depressed and have this nagging dread over nothing.
So anyway I saw some trivial daytime television and this pop psychologist was talking about choosing to be happy. Sounds easy doesn't it??!
Maybe after I have the minimum sober time to have my brain settle down that could make sense, but today I was like, "Choose to be happy? SHUT IT!!!!!!"
