Good Day All! (At least I hope it is!)
I was wondering, since the holidays are bearing down on us, and since depression can be unbearable during these times, I was wondering if any of you had plans to get through them. I'm especially curious, since during my no food for you destructive depressive phase, I was not only denying myself food, I was planning on leaving this earth on thanksgiving(which is also my b-day). My thinking was, by starving myself in the weeks leading up, I would be so weak that my "plan" would not take very long at all. Good thing I came out of that hell in a headbasket, huh?
Anyway, since it is so painful for me, and I don't have family to go visit, I am planning on volunteerig my morning at the homeless shelter community dinner. I also now have plans to visit my friend's family, and quite possible, the new beau! I'm not backing down on the volunteering though. For some reason, I really have this need to do it. Maybe just to be a part of something so big and special.
So what are you all doing? Anyone in the same boat as me familywise?
