So far, pretty decent
After three weeks plus on Prozac, I can say that there’s an improvement. I’m also moving more, getting more steps in, both in spurts and spread out. This week, I’m actually 77 out of 79 and on track to be 82 out of 84 for the twelve hours per day I have my Fitbit set to prod me ( Read more... ) -

I admit it
I finally admitted, out loud, that I’ve been battling depression for a while now. For months. I’ve put up a variably functional front, even been enthused over things here and there. But I’m not okay. And I don’t feel like I deserve to be depressed. I don’t ( Read more... ) -
New
Naturally, at the start of a Gregorian calendar year, those of us who live by it think of the new. New year, new growth, new look at what’s right and what’s wrong with our lives and our world. Part of that comes from the placement of the new year so soon after the winter solstice ( Read more... )
