Wow! It's been awhile since I last made a post. Guess I'm not too good at this.
Basically, I'm battling depression... ugh, okay. Soooo, what I've been doing now is my research. Thought that this was a good site because it's a non-profit organization, HelpGuide. See, all the other websites that I found seemed to be backed by the pharmaceutical companies. Oh, lovely.
Now don't get me wrong, they were helpful. I just prefer to get my info from a source that isn't pushing their product.
Also, there's this thing of Anxiety attacks that tends to make me useless for the day. Oh, goody. Also HelpGuide covers that topic as well. What a lovely website!
I actually had a client share with me that she goes to FiveBranches to help deal with this pesky attacks. If you don't already know, I'm not exactly keen on taking meds but that doesn't mean that I'm against them totally. Especially since I'm in a depression study at the moment. Hey, I've no insurance and the original product has been out on the market for decades. They've just changed the chemical balance a bit for people with Major Depressive Disorder. Thus a study....
Will definitely hope for the best. At the same time I'll try out acupuncture, keep going to my therapist and by God keep working through it.
In the end I must Thank God for my shrink! I mean, how else would I cope with this?
Well, this is a nice little post about where I am on the health front. Phew, thank God for the anonymity of the internet!

Almost a year.
Well, I haven't touched this blog in a very long time.
What have I been up to? Basically I did take the internship with the chiropractor, got a couple of jobs in the field (which I still have) graduated and am now looking into going back to a 4-year to graduate in counseling psychology.
Goodness, I started going to a gym. Have sworn off men for the coming year, and am not in OA at the moment. All ties with my ex will definitely be severed by September this year and ol' Mr. Blues Eyes is out of the picture.
A lot of changes.
This year is for me and I'm having a heck of a time dealing.
Well, here's to figuring out me. All thanks to my therapist (she's new and great)!
