Just read your profile and needed to send you a hug. My sister ruptured one of the disks in her back and they can't do any more for her so she is in pain every day. That on top of depression she has struggled with for years is really tough. So I know how hard this can be for you. If you can do the physical activity though, that helps a million. New babies can be overwhelming, but such a joy and motivation as well. Be kind to yourself and don't beat yourself up. Let your wife in so she can be a support. Take one day at a time, that is all any of us can handle.
Thought you may be able to use a hug. Jen
Hey, you! It's been MONTHS since I've been on DS as well, but I really wanted to say hello to you. I am so happy for you that you are doing well. Have the twins arrived yet? Congrats on going full-time in fitness! We are so alike! Although I am still in a ton of pain and very depressed I manage to run this department and am currently the top Fitness Manager in my entire company... how the hell do I do it? My son is going to start Kindergarten in the fall... life just keeps on rolling along so I try to suck it up and deal with the pain. I miss talking to you and truly wish you all the best. I hope someday I can feel better, feel happy like you. Love, Heather
Pretty Much been depressed and possibly bi-polar for 8-10 years. Doc does not really know how to diagnose me, not sure if I am bi-polar. I really don't experience too many highs, just normal to really low depression.
I drank from 14 until I was 31. Quit cold turkey after a it just got to be too much. Two years and 6 months since my last drink, and i wont ever have one again.
