How old do I look? No, wait, don't answer that, I may not hear what I want to hear, and today I am not in the right frame of mind to hear what I don't want to hear. ;)

I Understand Why People Attempt Suicide. (Part 2 )
You can Read part 1 here
Over the course of all the years I've been depressed and anxious, as I stated, I've found different ways to cope. I've coasted along fairly well since the point where I accepted that medication would be a constant companion in my life. I've changed medications a few times, been to therapy for a couple of different periods, and then... life goes on. It's not something I think about on a daily basis, at least I didn't until recently.

Depression Sucks the Life Out of Me
The past year, for me, has been the hardest of my 47 years. I've had some tough years along the way, but this one takes the prize. As I sit here today I feel... numb. I'm finding it hard to even grasp words I need to describe the depths of emotion I feel. Depressed? Yes. Anxious? Yes. Worried? Yes. Scared? Absolutely. I feel all of those things and yet, it's difficult to describe the combination of emotional soup that is my mind and heart.

I Have No Idea What to Do Next
I find myself in an unfamiliar place today. The place is known as I-have-no-idea-what-to-do-next. I realize now the times in my life I felt I was at the door of I-have-no-idea-what-to-do-next, those times were only to prepare me for the real deal, which is now, those times were to teach that I can overcome. I can climb out of the pit. There are lessons to be learned from every broken moment in our lives and this moment is no exception; I know that to be true. However, I have no idea what the lesson is, as yet.
