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.
Im at my daughters & staying w them during the fires. 2 bedroom apt, 2 kids, 2 adults, & 3 dogs. She has 2 cats. My son took us to lunch today. last night daughter took us to dinner. All of a sudden i got real depressed. Told hubby we should go to the big bear house. We were outside having a cig, (thank god those 2 kids didnt pick up that habit & we wont smoke in their house) but my son is talking bout all the stuff he does & my daughter gets her nails done, pedicures, hair done, etc... I said, shit, i cantg afford to buy food for the house sometimes. Im happy they can do the things they do but it depresses me too. Does that make any sense??? I havent really cried over all the shit yet, but have gotten teary eyed. Im not sure its really hit, or has it??? I watch the mtn & homes & places we've been & lived for 15 yrs going up in balls of fire.
so far it has not got our house but i love those mtns... It is my home, maybe not my house but my home.
i still think we should leave daughters apt. She said the manager called her today on her ce3ll to let her know no dogs allowed. She explained that we were evac. & the mangaer said to let her know how long we will be here then. WHO THE FUCK KNOWS!!!! If i could go home right now i would. I should had stayed & sent kids down w someone.
if im not online tomarrow, it may be cuz im in big bear & no internet access there but will have cell phone.
I JUST DONT KNOW WHAT THE FUCK TO DO!!!!!!!!

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
I am praying for California all day now, that the winds should die down. I'll be up late.
I'm so sorry that you're having to go through this. I wish the best for you and hope you and your family get through this all right. Do you have access to a therapist? Talking to someone who understands is so important....
If you go to big bear (aren't there fires up there too?) then you can always call me and I will post anything on DS that you want me to post for you! WHATEVER YOU NEED!
I cannot watch the news for very long without ending up in tears. My best friend is in San bern and my folks in fontana, so I get almost hourly updates on what is happening.
I swear to you girlie...I will come down there to help if you need me!
