If you're here you probably did a search on anxiety or depression and, because something called a "web crawler" found my page and decided it matched, you were routed here. Well let me tell you exactly what this blog is about.
I am starting this blog tonight, at 10:52pm PST (the time now) because today I had a random bout of depression and anxiety and have decided I've had it.
Odd thing is, of all days to be depressed, this sure is an odd one! I mean after having rain 2-3 days a week per week for the past 2-3 weeks we have a BEAUTIFUL sunny day. It was about 80 degrees outside and upon waking up my mood didn't feel like this at all. I think I even remember telling myself how much it would suck to have a day like this ruined, maybe that struck into my subconscious mind and made it a reality, like a Twilight Zone episode, haha.
Anyway I hope blogging about my progress will not only help me (though this is currently my priority) but also others get a jump start on battling depression and anxiety. Today, I have come to accept the fact that being depressed and anxious is not something you can get rid of in a day or a week or even a month in most cases. But I see it this way: I have two options:
- Stay depressed hoping it's just something that is happening today and, as always, tomorrow I'll be back to feel "OK"
- Begin the fight against anxiety and depression and, although it may take much time, 2 years from now if I am finally rid of it God willing I can say "Yeah it took a while, but it was better than just being sad randomly whenever my mood decides to change". I want a PERMANENT fix. I want to be stronger. I want to feel BETTER!
In an effort to keep things clean I will start a new post about what I did tonight to help combat this "disease", as I see it.
