Keeping Busy

Due to insomnia, at 2am I was busy putting some of my CDs into alphabetical order. One thing I have discovered is that when things are bad, no matter how I feel I need to do something. It can be difficult at times, if I wait to feel motivated it might never happen, instead I have learnt that I need to do something then I will start to feel motivated.

So despite feeling like I wanted to hide I didn't cancel my driving lesson, luckily my instructor had planned a quietish lesson today, and I even managed to cope with pedestrians crossing the road right in front of me.

One thing I have never fully understood is the description of depression as a black dog, I know the description is meant to illustrate that depression is always with us, but I have never found this description as any where approaching adequate.

To me depression is more like a fog or a blanket, that totally envelopes and covers you, reaching into all aspects of your life.
