phew.i feel much better today. what a relief. i'm not certain as to why. i ate three brownies and a godiva bar (yes,i know that's a lot!) over the course of the day yesterday but i didn't feel that great last night.

when i got to work yesterday,the work was piled up unbelievably,even though i could tell someone had done some work in my department.fortunately,even though the quantity of stuff was ridiculous,things were actually fairly neat,which makes me feel better. having things be messy makes me feel crappy. anyway,i attacked the mountains of work and did a hell of a job,if i do say so myself. there's still lots to do,but at least i took a bite out of it. so that probably made me feel better. and there may have been some hormones shifting as well which helped a little.

you'd think after 45 years i'd have it all figured out. well,granted,the first ten years of my life i was merely frustrated and angry,but not depressed,so i've only been dealing with depression for a mere 35 years! and it's really hard and it's awful to think some people have it worse than i do...though of course it's hard to measure. and some people have a horrible episode but don't have it all the time.i think i have some of both,and i DO have good days. but they are just not very frequent,which makes life wearying a lot of the time.

nevertheless,i feel good right now and i am going to try to enjoy it and get something accomplished.

I've found chocolate can do wonders for me when I'm low. :) Perhaps that helped.

It's funny how a physical mess can make you feel so out of sorts emotionally. That reminds me--I have to clean my room.

((hugs))

yay to accomplishment and feeling better today!!

Huzzah for feeling better, especially on a Friday, and Halloween to boot!! Which of course, just means more chocolate for the seretonin
factory!

I myself just had a chewy goo-goo brownie. De~lip~smacking~lish!

hehehe. chocolate CAN make you feel better! i'm glad you're doing better. it made me feel a bit better reading your post. :)

i'm glad you feel better today. :o) i need to take a bite out of a few chores myself. i keep putting them off cuz i have no enthusiasm or energy. i think if i could just have one big sleep, i'd have a little more get up and go.
happy halloween.

That's great! I'm glad you feel good today and are getting things done ... I love days like that, however rare they may seem to me.
Happy Halloween! :D

I'm so glad you had a good day. :)

i meant to tell you that i love the title of your journal. :o)
it's funny you mentioned the red sox to me because i've been emailing with my cousin from chicago and she's all about the cubs! i was torn. in the end i just hoped someone other than the yankees would take it this year. nothing against the yankees, just wanted to see someone else have the joy.

that was from me. patti!
