How would you best describe yourself at the time being?

[KATE336]

vote in! And elaborate if you want. I would say "alright" to "just getting by".

I know these are huge generalized categories, but the best description...or make up your own in a post.

I voted all right, I would be happy if it weren't for the fact that my shopping delivery is late and I want to go and practice my bass but I know as soon as I pick it up they'll arrive. Grrr.

Be interested to hear how everyone else is getting along.

I voted happy, which is usually the way I am, even when stress and frustration seem to be overwhelming. A couple weeks ago, I was just getting by, but that seems to have passed.

I voted just getting by.  I'm not sure why just a lot on my mind.  Glad to see that so far I'm the only one that is that low.

Oh Jennifer, sorry to hear that you are depressed to.  Wish I had my magic wand so that I could change that.  If I can help please
let me know.

Thanks, Elwood...you know, good days and bad days...so far, I feel pretty good this morning. I've noticed from your posts lately that you are also quite depressed. Maybe we can just hope that each other will get better, and hang in here together.

Thank you Jennifer.  Working on our depression would be great.

I'm not very wordy tonight so I will write more later.

Just getting by.  Why is it so hard to just be happy and maybe have a little fun?  I'm not really depressed.  I just don't feel anything.

[Phyllis]

ahhh yes. the feeling of stagnation. don't ya just love it?

I notice it has been a little over a year since I posted my first responses to this topic.  In that year I have bottomed out on depression, took a swim but failed, Hospitalized, shot at (Police wouldn't help in fact they made it worse  ), K kicked me out of the house and I had to stay in a hotel for almost a month, got my apartment, starting to move in, K is after me to get the rest of my stuff out of the house.

Remember as bad as life may seem at the moment, I can and will get worse.  At least that is what this year has taught me.

I have to remember to get a Heavier anchor when I go swimming next.
