    One Step at a Time - November 2012

    Nora... I was just thinking... maybe if we accept that "darkness" for what it is... and take it at it's face value... ???

        I am with you Zen. The past five years have been very hard financially for my family and my low grade depression and anxiety can rear it's ugly head. I think mine is hormonal, but most of it is life related for me....

          Well Mama... that will put you and me in the same boat then. Mine is *situational* mostly but I think there is some *clinical* mixed in there from the menopause...

          Quite frankly...... we need a break!!!!! If things sorted themselves out a bit in life, I reckon I could deal with the hormones moaning...

            I agree with all of that. It definitely was life related at the beginning. Husband illness, financial, etc., etc. But, I do believe that there was some 'clinical' mixed in there.

              Zen - that was the really, really scary part. I would step back and examine it. Ok, I'm just a little depressed. It will pass. Give myself a pep talk and all of that. But, the 'darkness' was just sucking everything else out. I don't know how to explain it. But, I was really getting worried. Knowing that I was heading there and I couldn't seem to stop it. A very scary feeling.

              Oh well - sorry to go on & on about it. Just never tried to explain it before.......and now I know why. :H

                It's good to talk about it Nora. Otherwise, how do we set it straight in our own minds? Some days, during the meno, I thought I had lost the plot... and it was scary. I started going through the meno at 42... (so did my mum...) and I'm not sure if that made it better or worse, being younger. Mentally I was NOT prepared for it... physically maybe I did better than some. It still SUCKED though!!! No matter what way I look at it... I thought I was loosing my marbles...

                  I just used my lunch hour to grocery shop and I "pulled a Nora"....got back a little late. LOL

                  There are not too many details to share from the weekend, my future husband was with us the whole time, but I think my sister and I are going to have to work harder to get him to crack...he's so much part of the family already that I'm not sure he's on to us. He MUST know something though or why did we go out to dinner alone? OY MEN!

                  Sorry I haven't had much time to catch up with everyone...I promise I will later this afternoon!

                  Love ya'll!!!

                              In the old days, I'd be having a drink from across the country to celebrate for you. :H:H
                              Guess I'll just send you a cyber hug instead. :l

                              Alco - glad you're having a quiet day.

                                In the old days, I'd drink for no reason.

                                Why are my hands still tremoring after 3 weeks of mostly no alcohol?
