Greg, I wish I had some talent that would give me a hobby like yours. I lack the creativity and the patience to do anything like that.

I'm sorry that you are in a cycle of depression. I wish I knew what to say that would help you, something besides "I've been there before." Which I have, but everyone's situation is so completely different that little comfort comes from such remarks.

Do you have any long-range plans?

Also, I like your icon!

*looks at your list* It looks like I might have been a little inspiring :-)

Sorry you've been all down, is there anything I can do?

Could you be my white knight and rescue a damsel in distress?

Are you OK? What can I do to help?

Am I ok? That all depends on the day I suppose. The extreme heat down here in the SE hasn't helped. Both my HIV and RA medication make me very heat sensitive (as well as the added fun of medically induced IBS).

I'm still highly affected by depression. . .mainly because I haven't had a permanent full-time job in for over five years now. But also because I'm still sensitive about grandma's death. It's been almost 8 months now, but it's hard. It's hard because I'm still living in the house, I can't afford to move at the moment. Memories of her are still very prevalent and all around. I can't even afford to go away for a little bit for a "mental" vacation. . .so the just surround me and envelope me and sometimes suffocate me.

Really I don't know what anyone can do to help.

Ugh. . .that just leads to a whole other set of depressive issues, mainly about my weight.
