Comments on: My Life’s To-Do List http://www.rebelliousarabgirl.net/2008/04/02/my-lifes-to-do-list/ Open your arms to change, but don't let go of your values Wed, 01 Feb 2012 22:30:49 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: queenie http://www.rebelliousarabgirl.net/2008/04/02/my-lifes-to-do-list/comment-page-1/#comment-36214 queenie Thu, 03 Apr 2008 19:58:49 +0000 http://www.rebelliousarabgirl.net/?p=1578#comment-36214 I can't say that I've gone through a prolonged period of depression, but there have been times in my life where I've felt like I've just been thrown down a deep well, and there's no one to help, and I feel my hands are tied. I turn to my faith in these times. There's a certain relief that comes with the realization that you are not always in charge of your life, that things happen and you have no control over it, and that's okay, because when you feel lost and alone and depressed, there is someone to guide you and keep you company. It's definitely not always drugs and shrinks that are the solution, sometimes, all you need is a little bit of faith.

Get out and enjoy some sunshine! Life is beautiful! BTW - I really like the new layout, as I believed I mentioned before, but it bears repeating. Try reading a book that always helps me, 'Oh! The Places You'll Go" by Dr. Suess. At this point I cannot promise you it will help - but it doesn't look like it can hurt. Mind you, I'm kinda screwing the pooch myself at work today. Ah well, on it goes ... Spring is springing! Get out and enjoy some sunshine!

The only difference is that it is my own fault (as if it is anybody's fault to be depressed), not that of any shitty work environment. Sleeping? I don't go to bed until I feel so tired that I can't keep my eyes open, sometimes 1 AM, sometimes even 7 AM... I spend more and more times on the net, or reading, regardless how good the weather is or what I should be doing. I find it very brave of you to tell us all this about yourself.I admire you for that. I wouldn't be able to do it. As for your depression, It will eventually disappear someday soon, as will mine. I have a loong experience with that. :smile: I know how you feel
