Hi, so I have not posted in six months or more….I want to say that things can get better. My life has turned around and I did it without meds and therapy. I have a stable job (they love me) and an agent wants to read my manuscript. It is night and day for me. I am so glad that I stuck it out, day by day even just three months ago I was still pretty hopeless. But here is the difference, I’ve read about the link between mood and creativity. It is not my fault. Yes, life is hard. I think it is menat ti be hard, I don’t kniow why but even rich people have issues, sometimes more issues. I won’t let people or anyone in this world rob me of my dignity. I took every bit of blame this year that was dished out and swallowed it. I’m stronger now. I won’t do that again, and nit just because things have turned around. In spite of them. If I had killed myself as planned, back in December I would not be around now to hold the literary agent’s card in my hand or to look forward to every day living in my essense, come what may. I deserve a place here. Life is good and so don’t you. Take a dream. Hold tight to it, whether it is just feeling ok or getting a job or getting through a heartbreak and keep getting up. Keep moving the date. You’ll be glad you did. Is life perfect? Nope. I’m still neurotic and still a worrier. I get stressed easy. But I have hope. Love and hugs. M.

That is amazing, and I’m glad you were able to realize things get better. Hopefully I figure that out too someday. Keep your head up.
Mitsuko – I am very pleased that this has happened for you. I’ve read your story and it’s like mine. I’m 44 and back with parents after great career went wrong. I’d love to chat with you, I can find no-one with this specific pain apart. Hope to hear from you.
