I do the shower thing, too (losing track of time & process). One time I was toweling myself dry and realized I hadn't rinsed the conditioner out of my hair. Oops! I had figured it was just an age thing...
Have you explored administrative work? I have no idea of the pay scale in your area. Back here, it's not high, maybe $30-$40K depending on the industry, with most places tending toward the lower end especially at the beginning. But having done it for several years now, I can say that the stress factor, while not completely absent, would probably be much lower than what you are dealing with currently. Plus I think you'd be great at it. Maybe you could explore that a bit in the summer, when school is out?
The only drawback would be that you'd be stuck at a desk for hours on end, with the only exercise being trips to the photocopier, file cabinet, hunting down people for urgent phone calls, etc.. so I make sure to get up and stretch, and walk outside during my lunch hour as often as possible.
I've been depressed lately, too - life is kinda sucky right now, in so many minor ways. But remember that you are loved, and so very important to a lot of us, always!
Thinking of you today as I debate whether or not to color my hair this evening, or wait til I can get to the store and pick up some more of the good stuff. You have me hooked on Sally Beauty now...
