I think I have had a couple of symptoms of depression. I have the same kind that preceded my "Suicide Sunday". Only this time I am following some suggestions. I have stayed up instead of going to nap all the time. I made a simple short time goal. I said by the day is over I would do three chores around my home and I did them. I can do a fourth one but only if I 'feel' like it. The self-contract is for three things. I need to stick to the contract if I am going to be successful in the future also. I have put off making a follow up appointment for the hospital day program with my psyche doc. I will do that in the morrow before I got see my psychotherapist she will ask and I want not to have to explain why I didn't and besides if I am going to like myself I need to do the good stuff for myself. I also have ask my sister for some 'take care of me' support (big time: UGH! Me, asking for such, ugh) and she has invited me up for an afternoon visit with dinner this coming Thursday home cooked meal my tummy will not know what to think. I just do not want to experience that awful place I was in on Suicide Sunday ever again. If you missed it, I put up a short web page describing the day but not all the surrounding stuff that led up to the day:

It has been kinda of a good day despite of the symptoms

Jeez a phone solicitor just called 6:30 p.m. selling Blue Cross & Blue Shield stuff (medical insurance)... I could hear her family in the back ground making all kinds of racket her accent was like that of that one woman character on "Friends" that was kinda irritating with the laugh thing and all.

Oops getting long winded here.

Hugs to all even to the above solicitor
