I'm lonely
Well I just came down from a mini manic episode about a month ago. It felt great while it lasted. My new psychiatrist responded quickly to get it under control. Now I'm in the inevitable depressive state but can't take anti depressants cuz of the risk of mania. Historically antidepressants haven't been very effective for me anyway. My pdoc asked me to consider shock therapy cuz my depressive episodes last so long. I've had docs bring this up before. I just don't trust it.
Im very lonely. I maybe see Victor once a week cuz he spends so much time at his farm since he's been laid off. I may see my brother every other month. No friends. Sleep, eat, watch tv.

I'm lonely too, mmp1. I miss the rich banter of the old DS but i believe this will begin to thrive once again. As for the rest of life: I have 2 siblings who live rather close (15 minutes to 1.5 hours) away and i never see them at all. I am at least at home and heart with my hubby. I sleep, eat, watch tv. And come here when life is good or bad. But, loneliness i know too well. Sending you big hugs. xoxox
