Surviving Late Life Depression

Dear Katie, you brought a tear to my eyes. My life is not great right now, but I'm not nearly going through what you are going through. I lost my mom when she was only 62. That was 20 some odd years ago. I know a bit about that.
When I manage to get an article written I feel like I've done some work. That always makes me feel better. (That and selling something on Zazzle :))
I'm sending you prayers and hugs too.

Watches For Lefties

Very nice, I'm ambidextrous so I like wearing my watch on my right arm, I write with my right and sign with my left. I naturally mix it up. People assume I'm left handed because I wear my watch on my right arm... Great topic. :)K

The Worst Buddhist Ever

Interesting. I was raised in the church, Presbyterian, I am now raising my children in the same church. My kids visit many other churches with their friends, some of which are in what they themselves call the cult church. It's The Fish House, created by a mother fed up with the standard churches. I have Buddhist, Jewish, Catholic, friends and on and on. We live in a very diverse city, one of the most diverse in fact. Religion is of little interest to me now, I got so much of it as a child I live by my heart. If my kids say they are done with the church it's fine with me and they know it. I feel it's more about how and who you are in the real world with real people that matters most, you know day to day when no ones looking. Great topic :)K

Surviving Late Life Depression

I remember when my daughters were just babies, only yesterday, and so many people would tell me, hang in there it gets easier. I was confused by this, as my kids were a delight to me. I thought they must mean kids get easier to care for as they get older. BUT I often think back and remember most of those people were older folks and most of them seemed to have a distance in them that made me wonder do they miss it, does it in fact not get easier yet harder? As life moves past us we seem to realize it doesn't get any easier. It is my every hope you find something in each new day that brings you joy. I like your dogs, they are cool. Pets are the best of company. I have a sweet heart of a black cat that is my shadow, following me around everywhere I go. She cracks me up and makes me smile.

Depression is a big part of all we mere human beings. It's not a big dark ugly secret we should keep hidden, I'm so glad you brought this topic up. I'm not sure of the practical need for sadness and the low moments in life but they are a constant and must serve more purpose than I know.

I'm losing my mother to a horrible illness. I just took for granted she would be around for at least 25 to 30 more years but illness takes her now. I'm very depressed as I learn to live without my Mom. She's so ill she doesn't know when I'm around. I'm told she may never wake to us again. It's hard in so many ways. I listen to the voice mail messages she's left me and realize I may never speak to her again. Realizing how important we are to others makes life take on a whole new meaning. I'm glad you have your dogs, and friends. I'm going to imagine a truck or other vehicle coming into your life not to mention much much more.

I'm very happy you are here to bring a ray of light to our Wizzley family. You are a great asset to us all :)K

Get the leggings too. Leave them on for work, then take them off for the party afterwards. :)

For me - Regular Exercise and a large daily dose of Vitamin B group works wonders.

I want to find a costume for work...and play afterwards too! But, I haven't found one I like yet, so maybe that dress could work for that. DECISIONS.
