Ecar, that was a brilliant, beautifully written description.

Even though I, obviously, endorse Mental Health Week, it is exhausting. Every thought pattern was intensified and I have struggled with depression and crippling anxiety all week as well as insomnia and other symptoms. I still need to figure out why this happens every year, considering I've always been quite open in regards to mental illness and its advocacy, so this past week is nothing new to me but it still seems to be a trigger. But, for now, I need to recharge my batteries and get back on track.

Its times like these that I miss the old CW Depression Support Thread.

Thank you, Bluecat.

This is the quote I was looking for...
