In case you didn't know...

For those of you who don't know I figured I would share what is going on. Back on March 13th I had a mental breakdown and started crying. It was the worst bout of depression that I have ever been through. I cried off and on for several hours.

It was like I had been wearing masks and they shattered all at once. It left me exposed, I felt so vulnerable. I started to examine everything that was going on in my life. A flood of thoughts came through my head and I was overwhelmed. Karma was out with the kids and when she got back home I told her that I needed to see a professional and get some help. Since then the depression has lessened but it is still there.

Why this came on suddenly? I don't know. I am lucky enough to work for a company that has some pretty good mental health benefits so several sessions will be covered.

Keep in mind it is not a debilitating kind of depression but I am down a lot of the time now. I AM NOT SUICIDAL. Luckily, I will have my first session with a therapist tomorrow.

I am a little nervous going into all of this. I am not completely sure what to expect. I hope that things will all go well. Being depressed sucks and now more than ever I don't know what the future holds for me but I am staying positive and know that eventually the future will be brighter than it seems to me right now.
