Tonight,I am feeling okay.I had a pretty good day today.
After getting up out of bed this morning,I ate a quick breakfast and I had a couple cups of coffee.I also did my personal PC work and after that was done,I simply closed off the internet and started to get ready for the day.
This afternoon,I had a talk with a neighbor of mine and I also went to a gas station to get a little bit of gas.After that,I took my mom to a local supermarket so she could do some last minute shopping.
I also had a talk with the counseling center today.Unfortunately,they couldn't hook me up with anyone to talk to and referred me back to the local hospital,which I called the minute that I hung up with the center.I talked with the medication manager and told her exactly how I felt and she advised to try and hang in there until next Monday.She told me to share how I am feeling and to take any advice that she gives and if she wants to prescribe me with any new medication,just give it a try.It wouldn't hurt to just try something instead of avoiding the situation.I have only one fear.I fear that the nurse practitioner is going to overmedicate me and I don't want that.I don't want what happened to Elvis Presley or Michael Jackson to happen to me.I did talk with the Drop-In Center tonight and they advised me not to have any worries and not to dwell on anything negative.I told them that the only thing that I can do is hope.I am just hoping that I will be okay after I see the nurse practitioner because I can't take this depressive funk anymore.Though the depression has leveled off a little,I am still feeling the feelings of being depressed and I am hoping that I will be out of this funk soon.I just can't take it anymore.
After eating,I watched the evening news for a while and I as stated,I talked with the Drop-In Center for a short time.It was another pleasant conversation and I will be calling again tomorrow night.
I am now relaxing and I am getting ready for tomorrow.
Tomorrow is a work day.I am hoping that the day goes well.
That was my day today and my hopes for the day ahead.FJ

FJ,
Hope is great to hang on to my friend. I must admit I would not be here today if there wasn't that hope inside that things would get better. It has been a slow process but hey, I'm here, you're here, life will get better. Believe in yourself, have courage, it is there, I know I've read your writing and I see a courageous man.
Take good care. Have a good night and great day tomorrow.
Stan
