You need professional help. You can't climb out of the quicksand alone, babe.<br /><br />If you are depressed long enough, it can affect your chemicals/hormones and that will keep you depressed no matter if it is a good day or bad day...and the fact you were on hormones anyway...sorry to be blunt but seriously, get thee to a doctor, pronto.<br /><br />CALL ME.

If you are depressed long enough, it can affect your chemicals/hormones and that will keep you depressed no matter if it is a good day or bad day…and the fact you were on hormones anyway…sorry to be blunt but seriously, get thee to a doctor, pronto.

CALL ME.

It totally sucks ASS. ((hugs)) <br /><br />For me, trying to just move through it is the best way to deal, because it is nothing that can be fixed. It's like a huge mudpuddle in a parking lot. Dark and dirty but you've got to get past it or you'll miss something good. Be gentle with yourself. You do many good things. You have things to be sad about and, I suspect, little time to process.

Hell, any one of the things you are dealing with would send many people into a tailspin, much less an ugly cocktail of depressing or just outright hard stuff. Wish I knew of a magic cure.

I'm sorry you're having a rough time of it, but it's usually when things settle down that we finally feel stuff (after the crisis, etc.). Sending much love.

And I quite understand why you would be. And I have faith that you will conquer it and life will turn out right, for you. You sound very much like you deserve that.

I wish (so badly) that you would quit being so f'in hard on yourself. So you need to lose some weight? So what? No, you're not getting pregnant right now- but you're not even close to menopause. <br /><br />You are bound to your home right now by duties and needs there. You are accomplishing the unbelievable. How many people could devote their daily lives to caregiving in the most unselfish of ways? I'm gonna be honest with you... not many.<br /><br />What is going to happen to Calliope when the unthinkable but inevitable happens? Where will you go? What will you do? Who will you meet?<br /><br />If I sound like a snarky bitch right now, it's because I'm trying to give you some gentle tough love. Because your amazing talents and soul are there... waiting to be utilized. I know damn well about being depressed. I know about struggle and not getting what you want when you want it. And you know I'm no Bible thumper... but I do believe in a higher power... and that everything happens when it's supposed to... and that you are loved by many many people far more than you might realize. <br /><br />Take a yoga class. Read a new book. Bring your camera with you EVERYWHERE you go and plot a book of photographs. You can do ANYTHING. And "Anything" will happen... when you're really ready.<br />I love you, C. You carry the world around on your shoulders and then wonder why you’re hunched over.

I have oftentimes wondered why you have killed yourself over not getting preggers when you already have a baby to take care of… albiet in her 80′s… she needs you like any child would.

What is going to happen to Calliope when the unthinkable but inevitable happens? Where will you go? What will you do? Who will you meet?
