Out of the Fog

I have been gone a while. I wasn't out of town or doing anything exciting. I was in a fog. The problem with depression is that it is incredibly hard to see when you are in its midst. I was first diagnosed and medicated for depression in 2000. My medication had changed a couple times and I had talk therapy but for the most part things were better. Then, in March, I realized something. I had sunk back into that part of my life that is depression. Sarah went out of town for a week and I was on my own. I suddenly noticed that without someone else there I was sleeping all the time, not eating, not myself. Although it is difficult to admit there is a problem I called a guy and we talked for a few weeks, he changed my medication and voila! Just like that I am doing better, I am out of the fog. I feel more like myself, have more energy and am looking forward to things again.

So that's where I have been. I am back now and for anyone still reading this after all this time I am blogging again.
