I suffer from anxiety and depression. So there it is. I was diagnosed in 2003, but have carried it around with me since childhood. I rallied when I started taking medication, then crashed in 2008 due to a number of factors.
Finally - finally! - I seem to have found the right mix of medications to re-awaken my brain to its possibilities. I feel creative, I feel capable, I feel intelligent. These are all things my life has seriously lacked in the past year or two.
So what am I going to do with this re-awakening? Well, the first task at hand is to continue my recovery. I'm currently unemployed and still have some therapy to do before I'm able to work again. I hope to be back in the workforce soon, as my benefits are close to running out. I'm really not sure what my vocation will be, but I do not want to go back to the corporate rut that helped precipitate this latest crash. A writing career would be great, but not entirely feasible in this economic climate. Event planning is one of my fortes, so that's a possibility.
Right now, I'm just happy to have my brain back!
