Birthday Update

[idlemuse]

Today is my 20th birthday.

So I thought I'd make a post. But it ain't gonna be a happy one; apparently birthdays don't cure these kinds of feelings.

I nearly cried tonight at darkside when these Code 64 lyrics played:
I am drifting away

Only piece of advice I can offer.

Go see a Doctor. They will give you options to help you overcome this, they can refer you to people who will give you the tools to enable yourself to beat depression and down moods.

Your not alone, your going through something that can be treated, but it has to come from you. You have to want to beat it and change.

If you don't, that only leads down one road.

oh yeah, and there is nothing wrong with having a dressing gown day every so often. I've found that when my various 'things' get to much, having a day to just fuck it all off and wallow can actually be restorative and help me work through some of the mental conundrums that crop up

*hug* I can't think of any more helpful advice than what has already been said. But always know that I'm here for you, for talks and hugs.

I was in just about that kind of position when I was 20, too. Depression sucks but it can be beaten. I'll echo the advice you already have- see a doctor. They can help. If I hadn't gone to the doctor when I did, well, I dread to think, really.

Nothing I can say that the others have already said. I too can offer sympathy. Or tea. Sympathy tea!

Also I hope you enjoy at least some of your birthday mate. Best wishes.
