If it helps at all to know, that situation would depress the heck out of anyone. It isn't just you, at all. <br /> <br />Having to move from a place you liked to one that is filthy and currently depressing? Yeah, that's real stuff. I think sometimes the term depression is used when a level of dissatisfaction that is completely understandable exists. In other words, it's not just a rocking case of the blues, right now? You have some circumstantial stuff that isn't fun, and would wear on anyone's spirit. <br /><br />I'm glad your counselor is teaching you coping tools, those are handy things to have. Hang in there, you'll get the place clean, and freshly painted. You'll get your stuff moved in and it won't feel as much like this place you are being sentenced to, it will start to feel like home. <br /><br />I'm glad you're taking meds, that's a wise decision. I do think sometimes people are really hard on themselves for feeling low and not always being able to put a bright spin on something. <br /><br />Try to remember to give yourself a break about how you are feeling, it's understandable.Land of shimphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15671954452597068904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3230542560056207737.post-3619266359878782572009-10-04T12:09:15.471-07:002009-10-04T12:09:15.471-07:00I remain convinced that Spokane is the root of all...I remain convinced that Spokane is the root of all problems. I was miserable (MISERABLE!) living in Spokane. Things got a lot better when I went home to Portland. Seattle, though, also not so great. So maybe the root of all problems, really, is the state of Washington...I blame the vampire problem out there on the Olympic peninsula. I wasn't truly, genuinely, for-my-own-sake, happy until I moved down here and started medical school. Amazing. It's like I'm a different person.Lindsey MishLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06288168442145766941noreply@blogger.com
