01Moving Through It
I was going to write this big post about depression and how I’ve been rotting in my house for the past week, but I’ll spare you the pathetic details and just say this: I’m feeling a lot better.
Being that I’ve dealt with depression and anxiety my entire life, I can usually navigate through the rough patches and still maintain some semblance of normality, but this blindsided me. And sure, if I had health insurance at the moment some Xanax definitely would have helped take the edge off. But I haven’t taken meds for a good year and a half, and I’m glad I got through this by myself without chemical aid. Things are good, and I think too much.
I’ve also made some serious changes in my lifestyle. As opposed to eating once a day and usually something with no nutritional value, I’ve been eating three meals a day and drinking water instead of snacking on bullshit. I’ve also cut down ridiculously on the amount of coffee I drink, down to one or two cups when I wake up. No more of this hey lets drink an entire pot and then go straight to sleep crap. I have furious headaches from the caffeine withdrawal, but I’m already starting to feel much better. blahblahblah anyways, my spark is back and I feel good.
solid.
