Depression Support Group
Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
On December 22 there was flooding in my area and I lost my internet connection. My home is on a hill so I did not experience any loss or damage, PTL, but I had to drive 40 extra miles a day to work and back for a week. The store where I work was really busy, then right after the holidays we had to begin the yearly inventory.
I kept having troubles with that old car and one day some idiot came blowing through a red light and slammed into me. I waited for 2 hours In the cold for a tow truck. The other driver admitted liability right away, and his agent settled with me in 3 days, but it took 10 more days for me to get my money from the company out of state home office.
I was not injured, but very inconvenienced and angry at the unfairness of it all. My therapist was on vacation and I had one to talk to
Some good has come my way. My boss has decided to keep the store open until the license expires in July so I am not going to be unemployed right away. I used the insurance money to pay off an existing loan and this week assumed new debt and bought another car.
And this evening my internet provider sent a tech to my home to find why I was still unable to access the internet and he discovered a faulty Y-adapter!!!!! Something that simple.
I feel all my ducks are in a row now ..til next time

"I wish there was some other place to go and have some fun besides a casino."
I am not beating myself up over that. I did it to myself. It is not like all the other unfair and unexpected stumbling blocks that roll into my path the last three years.
