Certain times of the month seem to really influence my emotional state. Maybe it is the full Moon or maybe it is PMS – maybe both.
Between my anxiety coming through in my dreams, followed by waking up depressed – it is a bit much.
I am thankful for what I have in my life but sometimes my old companion depression kicks in for absolutely no reason. It kind of sneaks up on me and hits me. Thankfully this only happens a few days a month now. It really makes me stop and wonder how I lived with depression and anxiety almost daily at one point. I couldn’t imagine viewing the world through shades of grey now.
Depression, at this stage in my life, feels claustrophobic to me instead of being one of the few emotions that I could feel.
I am grateful that I have the people I have in my life. Those that love and support me.
