official moping thread

I had about a 3/10 yesterday, back to 8 or 9 today. Not been down at 2 for a while, but I suppose the odd dip is to be expected. For me now, it's just something that passes that I have to grin and bear.

4 forever

Technically, I'm a manic depressive so ya won't be hearing from me for a while!

I was arguing with my wife about the "Glass half full/empty" question (which I have always hated), and I decided my answer was it depends on which direction the contents are flowing, making the answer proportionate to the efforts of whomever the glass belongs to.

She told me I was a pessimist for focusing on the fact that the question is baited. I told her she was wrong.

Then I realized I proved her right.

Goddamn that pissed me off.

I've never ever bothered with any self help guides before but I managed to get hold of an mp3 of Wayne Dyer's Erroneous Zones and a mixture of that and just realising what's important in life an' all that, have made the last 6 months a bloody good'un.

This is seriously good to hear, although from talking to you a while ago on the train, and how you are now, it's definetly apparent that you're looking up. Take inspiration from this man heres reply Vamos, a few months ago I don't think I had talked to anyone who felt so shit in themselves, stick with it, work through it and you'll come out on top mate.

i'm just going to hang in my room for a while i guess

put on some music and draw

december thru May was kinda 2-4. but ever since i've been about a 7 or 8

it was just a one night thing i suppose. today's average has been about a 7 with highs in the 8s and lows in the 6s during certain stretches of time.

i've found that i haven't been depressed for more than a day or two at a time for about the past 4 or 5 months. it's been good overall.
