Okay.  This is my first journal entry.  I'm a little disappointed there is no spell check on this program.  My spelling is not too good.  Today has been very productive and positive.  Just when I think I'm out of the woods and will survey the day, I'm hit with that dreaded depression monster.  A woman should never be left alone with her thoughts.   I have a good friend who also suffers with depression and unpredictable mood swings.  I invited her to a meeting that deals with depression to see if we can get a handle on our inner monsters.  Big mistake!  She acted like I was out of my mind!  Hence, the bad and negative vibes came rushing in my head like a water breaking through a damn.  Did I spell damn right?  I'm trying not to let this get me down, but it's hard to keep my head above the water.  Tomorrow is a new day and this day is almost over.  Anyone have suggestions on how to lift your spirits when people or events get you down?  Maybe I just take things way to personal.  I don't know...grumble.
