Re: Have you had a period of remission from your depression
hi @utopia good to hear from you
you sound like you're doing an amazing job with your son. Well done.
I've been having a hard time with a mean man at my volunteer position, he was agro & triggered some yucky MH symptoms in me so I've arranged to have 2 weeks off volunteering so I can recover.

@BryanaCamp . Well done on looking after your mental health needs first.
We cannot always avoid triggers, but when they do hit, we need to take extra care of ourselves. ❤

Re: Have you had a period of remission from your depression
thanks @utopia your support is really kind & sweet. ANd wise words, we can't live life with no triggers can we? for me they are always going to be a risk anywhere where I interact with people becuase I'm vulnerable to emotional abuse and manipulators (due to my parents' abuse).
Haven't seem much of you around the forum. I hope you are ok. And that your son is well
How are you?
It's getting cold here in melbourne now so my heaters are blaring and walks are more bracing. Hope you are taking good care of yourself. How is your medication going, are there any winter things that take your fancy?
My medication is ok, it's a juggling act of feeling emotionally agile Vs feeling irritable & angry. I have cut back my volunteering to once a fortnight and may take up my mean colleague's unprofessional behaviour with my manager. I've sent her a email to feel her out so will see how that goes.

Re: Have you had a period of remission from your depression
Hi @BryanaCamp
I'm doing ok-ish. Anti depressant is working. I can laugh now when I see something funny. That's a big improvement. Still no motivation or energy. So I tend to do nothing all day everyday.
Am seeing a new psychologist. Had 3 sessions so far. She seems okay.
My son is well. Getting most of his school work done. A lot of study in year 11. He's still in love with his girlfriend ❤. Lol.
Very cold here in country Victoria too. Heater on every night.
Hopefully your manager can sort out your colleague for you.
Stay warm.
