Cherishing Humor

The Scarlet B Posted on July 31, 2012 by RaeynJuly 31, 2012

One thing that always helps me slink by is being able to laugh at things. Besides the British knack for self-depreciation, it helps put depression and its allies in its place if you can laugh at them. By the same … Continue reading →

Aim Low:Goals & Functionality

The Scarlet B Posted on July 30, 2012 by RaeynJuly 30, 2012

Part of my survival method is to set minimalistic goals for myself. That way, I get the sense of accomplishment without risking hurting myself too badly. And I do hurt myself if I set too many; I will ignore my … Continue reading →

It’s Sunday…

The Scarlet B Posted on July 29, 2012 by RaeynJuly 29, 2012

Which means I have nothing, ha ha. And that’s fine — maybe it means I’ve survived my depression dip and am on the way up and out. I’m not counting on anything, but it’s nice to think that maybe this … Continue reading →

Success Maybe?

The Scarlet B Posted on July 28, 2012 by RaeynJuly 28, 2012

I feel significantly more human today after sleeping through such a large swathe of yesterday. That is definitely hopeful for not feeling quite as zombie. Which, in turn, will elevate my mood just that tiny bit. It’s harder to be … Continue reading →

Reset Attempt

The Scarlet B Posted on July 27, 2012 by RaeynJuly 27, 2012

My husband looked at me laying on my desk this morning and hurried himself at the little one out the door this morning. Why? So I could crawl back into bed. After a week or two of being a morning … Continue reading →

Blah, Wah, Etc

The Scarlet B Posted on July 26, 2012 by RaeynJuly 26, 2012

Yeah yeah, still whiny, still at home. I’m listless and just sort of bumming around doing not much of anything. I’m hoping to feel put together enough tomorrow to drag myself into work, but I’m not going to count on … Continue reading →

Self Doubt

The Scarlet B Posted on July 25, 2012 by RaeynJuly 25, 2012

I commented to one of my best friends yesterday that I do my best to not wallow in self-doubt… which means I’m having a dose of it today. Irony, thy name is irony. Thankfully, I’m not doing too much in … Continue reading →

Two Minds

The Scarlet B Posted on July 24, 2012 by RaeynJuly 24, 2012

The depressed brain says: ‘Whiskey! Marlboro Reds! Oblivion! Can has?’ The rational brain says: ‘No, we can’t go that route. Even though it would be so much easier than bleeding on the knife edge.’     But seriously, today is … Continue reading →

Wah Wah Wah

The Scarlet B Posted on July 23, 2012 by RaeynJuly 23, 2012

I’m at the point of things where I feel whiny. I don’t want to do anything, I want to just go back to sleep or stare at the ceiling or cry… yanno, anything but drag myself onwards through the day. … Continue reading →

Out of Doors?!

The Scarlet B Posted on July 22, 2012 by RaeynJuly 22, 2012

Even though I’m still mega-meh and don’t want to do anything, I’m going out in the land of natural light again. And it’s proper bright and sunny today, so this will be… interesting. *chuckles* The irony is it’s to see … Continue reading →
