We will get each other through.
You are not alone. We care for sure and thank you for caring. HUGS!

hm. At this point in your sobriety I'd say there's something else going on. I think courage2 may be on to something. Needing a little tweak to the meds is really common. They don't always work forever, and sometimes a change is needed.

You'll figure it out

I am really late to this post, dear trachs.

Count this soul, please, among the people who care about you and hold you in high esteem.

Sending hugs your way.

I got up at the usual early hour with nothing to do. The weather is good so I'm airing out the house. Windows open, fan pumping fresh air in, old air out. Today will be a housework day. Yay, right?

Waking up to find all you people here, wishing well for me, is truly humbling. Thank you.

There is satisfaction from seeing something come clean--and when the task is done, you get to bask..

(((Trach))). Also late to check in. Working too much out here but look at all the friends you have! You touch more people than you realize.

For me, I found that the AV would use depression against me. I don't know, but once I thought about it, the depression lifted a bit. I know you're a creative and sensitive man.

Is it time to whip some okra?

Love to you from Lenina

I did that today Trachy, here in the middle of winter when we had 23C! My house and mind feel much fresher.

Thank you, everyone.

In the past, an episode like that would have ended with me waking up someplace strange. Like, in a schoolyard. BTDT.

I often wonder how I survived.

The support here is nothing short of miraculous.
