Walking with me


I am all ready to go out with some friends I haven't seen in 15 years. I mean, I have seen some of them but others I haven't...suffering from depression, this is hard for me. I have tried to think of ways to get out of it. I have to be truthful and well the truth is, I am feeling quiet. Writing is one thing but talking is another. Depression is very isolating and I have to fight that.
I called my friend Leigh Ann who has been my friend for 36 years and I asked her if it would be okay if I didn't go...Leigh Ann said "no and why"...so I am going. I am sure as soon as I get there I will have a blast but making myself see past the clouds right now is not easy. I have even given myself a headache.....
I will let you know tomorrow how much fun I had....remember, if I can do it so can you!

It's hard to get up and go, Christy, but you can do it!
And just being honest about it is a really good start...
Big hug -

I totally understand what you are saying when you try to make excuses because you don't want to face anybody during times of depression. But you are a very strong person.
