    I've been tagged for the topic

    I've been tagged to do the topic for the blogwalk this week. The topic I have come up with is this:
     
    We all spend time doing things that we like to do. What I want to know is what is that you hate to do? Something you actually procrastinate to get done until you absolutely have to?

    Lately I have found my symptoms of depression creeping back up on me. I am finding lack of motivation to do anything at all. Just making it out of bed is a big accomplishment for me lately. Wow, I actually did something. I can't even make a simple decision. Choosing a topic for example. I had a lot of ideas, but they kept changing on me and I just couldn't decide. So finally I thought blah just stick with this one and hit publish. The only joy I have been finding is my kids. So much has happened this last year that I have lost sight of everything again. My Dad died, followed by my Grandma, two months ago someone else I knew growing up went also. I have so many unresolved grief issues and my own feelings about myself piling up on me. I should have done something immediately because of my past issues with depression......and I didn't. Now that I recognize that my symptoms are there again and can actually see them, I know that I have procrastinated long enough. I just wanted to be able to do it on my own. But when someone just has to say one thing, even if it's a nice thing, and boom the crying starts and won't stop, besides all the other symptoms I have, it's time to see a counsellor and deal with it all before it gets any worse. That is the one major thing I hate doing. Admitting I need help.

    I'm sorry to hear it's creeping back. Have my own creepers too, and it cheeses me off.  Bri asked me to tell you that he can't post the blog walk topic this week because his space is messed up, and asked me to post  it for him on my blog, if you could let folks know its there - I will actually do this one too, I've been lax. If he gets his blog back up working, it will go up there, but for now, its on mine. So, anyone who wants to take part will need to go there for now.

    Hi sweet heart..
    I'm sorry your entering depression again.. don't feel alone in this ok? cuz there are a lot of people right now that are going through it.. including myself.. at least you know what is going on.. and yes its hard to take the meds.. and to make the appointment to see someone whom you can talk with.. but you know tis  important.. I think this is one of most hardest things to do.. and when those around you don't understand.. when they think that you can just get over it.. well.. 'sigh'.. just  remember that you have a hand to hold on to.. There is this med that I take.. that does seem to help.. and you only have to take it once a day.. its called Lexapro.. does not have any of those nasty side effects.. you may want to ask your doctor about it..
    I have placed my email up above if you want to email me.. I know you tried to give me yours at one time.. but it never did come through.. so if this one doesn't please let me know..
    holding on to your hand.. and giveing you a soft hug ~Hope

    My list would take an hour to write if I was going to come up with something I hate to do..lol  Too many things come to mind.  Anyway..

     

       It is really great that Ben is coming back!  Thanks for letting me know.  I am sorry to hear about the whole depression thing.  It makes me almost sick to my stomach when people act as if it can be helped.  I know first hand...It cannot be helped.  My Brother took his own life because of it.  I have suffered from it a few times in my life.  To be honest, I think this is the 3rd time I have had problems with it. I am trying not to get meds for it this time but like you, I just dont know if that will work.  There may come a day, I just will have to break down and seek out zoloft once again.  I hope things get better for you.  I know how hard it is.  Ive been there, done that.  I just wish people would educate themselves on things like that before they judge.  Have a great week.
