Grad school applications are definitely eating my soul. Or are about to. I've been in a semi-depressed anxious state pretty much since i got out of school [or before], so sometimes its hard to think straight and not let the days slide by in a fog. i'm thinking about looking into anxiety medication. my depression is mostly existential life doubt angst. i'm afraid that clinical psych isn't my passion [or that i dont have one] and i'll end up being miserable, but thats probably just me worrying too much. i try to reaffirm my choices as often as possible as much as i can without ever being 100% sure about anything. i think you're BA awesome ass too, and i miss you.
