Mood Watch
I just need a place to bitch about my mood and say: I'm depressed.
Mostly it's the short, cold, snowy days. Partly it's because my wife is sick and will be having surgery next week. If that weren't bad enough, it means we had to cancel travel plans I was really excited about (poor baby me).
Sorry, Perry.
All of those things will bum a person out. I hope your wife improves, and I hope you find your happiness soon.
What glatt said. It's always something, you know? Wishing better days.
And, if levity helps (it always helps me) I was expecting to see an old mood ring only a mood WATCH.
What time is it?
It's BLUE 3:30, time to get HAPPY.
Now I want a mood watch.
Hey, have you ever considered one of those lights used to help with SAD (seasonal affective disorder?)
Sorry to hear that, Perry. I hope things go well for your wife and you both find the New Year warmer and happier.
those are all legit reasons to feel sadness.
I hope things turn around soon.
:flower:
in my prayers.....and chag Chanukah sameach. Things will get better
things will be better by dec. 19th.
that's when I can get my vals refilled.
Perry, I know the feeling. Sometimes it helps to think of it as a cold of sorts that lasts and lasts and makes you think weird shit about your life that probably isn't objectively true. Maybe more like a bad acid trip than a cold. Just keep telling youself "it's not real, it's just the depression, it's not true, I'm gonna come down eventually."
Tell your doc to up your meds or change them up. My doc added some welbutrin to my sertraline and I felt a lot better within days. Other factors continue to impinge on my bliss, but those I know are external.
In the meantime, may I recommend comedy?
I second the comedy recommendation. It really is the best medicine.

Back in my married days I had one of those mood rings. When I was happy it turned a lovely pale blue colour, when I was upset it left a big red mark on his forehead.
Rhianne, you're funny.
I recommend comedy. I mean, I tried my hand at it my own damn self.
Thanks for the support and good advice, everybody. I really appreciate it.
I hope all works out well for you.
Thirded it. You thirded it, BigV.
What Rhianne said...things will get better soon. I think I'm absorbing some of the depression so perhaps I can lighten your load a bit. :comfort:
Ok, thirds then.
One-third Three Stooges.
One-third Mel Brooks.
One-third Looney Tunes.
More thirds: (turn up the volume!! better yet, launch all three at once.)

Damn, sounds to me like you're not depressed, you're oppressed.
The way shit's been coming down around your ears is a perfectly good reason to feel bummed out. Hope it gets better soon.
Cheer up Perry. Did you know there's a Disney fairy named after you? She's in 'The Secret of the Wings'. Great movie if you're 3. Not bad if you're a grown up...the first time. After about 100 times, it loses it's gloss somewhat. Still, some of the songs are cool to sing along to. :)
Good luck to your wife with her surgery. I hope it all goes well, and maybe afterwards you can spend some time together doing nice stuff close to home to make up for missing the trip. xx
Tril, every time I see that ICQ flower it makes me think we're still in the computer stone age. lol
