The Good Life
I had a doctor appointment today, with my primary doc who I haven’t seen in 2 years. I was there for a migraine. She looked me over, sat down and said, “Well, you have a nasty migraine, we need to break it. Other than this though, how have you been? I haven’t seen you.” And [...]
Diaries and Depression
So, this blog is like a public diary. I know that’s an oxymoron if there every has been one, but that’s just what it is. Sometimes it’s easier for me to write about what I’m feeling than to talk about it. Eventually I’ll talk about it, and sometimes I’ll talk about it first. But if [...]

Two years ago a dear friend of mine called me. She said she was driving through the town where we taught in Michigan. When I asked why she was in Michigan she told me her brother had commited suicide. I told her I was sorry. But I had to go. I had a thing to get [...]
New Directions
I’ve spent the last week doing a lot of thinking about this little blog of mine. I started it with a specific purpose in mind: to tell others that they are not alone in the battle against depression and to prove that by sharing my story. Graphically. I’ve read so many stories about depression that [...]
