The All About Me, or Why Did I Do This Page!
These needed some updating done, so here goes.
This started as my ramblings with the ups and downs of depression that I go through, but it’s slowly becoming more than that. It’s becoming as unique as I am.
Who really am I? I’m not even sure, but please, if you know, by all means, do share with the class, but until then, here is what I know. I’m a geek. I’m a survivor. I’m crazy in love with Star Wars, SteamPunk, MMO gaming, and tea. You can likely find me paying very little attention to one thing while devoting my time to multiple projects at once. I’m artistic and creative, yet when my depression kicks in, you never know if I’m going to be thrown in to my work, or forget about it.
I’ve been through trauma, and am learning to survive from PTSD after rape. I’m a person who suffers and lives life with depression, but trying to not let it rule my life, just coexist with it. I tend to have a short attention span. Really, it’s true. I’m an ADHD squirrel inside of a metallic confetti factory. OH SHINNY!
Suggestions? Comments? Random thoughts? Please share. I welcome it, though I may not comment upon it. This is my rabbit hole journeys, and you’re welcome to them, but they are mine, so don’t expect it be like you.
Hi Alice (almost) – You’re following me – so does that make me the rabbit?!
Thought for the day:
Don’t ask who you are – you are never the same twice anyway. Ask instead what you should do. Do something amazing and let that be who you are. Until you do something else…
You could be the new rabbit, but not the white one I hope
And thank you. I try to keep myself positive, but it is such a hard thing to do. I also try to do something worthwhile each day, or at least through the week.
From one Alice to one not quite – nice blog. I know all about rabbit holes. Good luck.
I’m a Star Wars geek, too. Did the avatar give me away?
It’s a reson I started reading!
Woohoo!!
You sound like an amazing person. Taking things one step at a time, some days are better than others, right? I hear ya. Good for you for being so strong even when awful things are thrown your way.
Thanks for following my blog. I really like yours
Thank You. Lately, talking about what happened, besides in therapy helps. I can express and feel safe expressing what I’m feeling.
And you’re welcome. I like yours as well.
Thanks Rara!
Definitely! My mom is a therapist and she always told me to talk things out.
Even if it’s just on “virtual paper” it does help.
I admire anyone who can speak about their depression. I tried keeping mine hidden for so long, but that just made the depression worse.
Thank you
writing down how I feel and the thoughts I acknowledge helps so much. I didn’t think people would read this, but if they did, my hope was to help them the smallest amount if possible.
I wrote notebooks on top of notebooks full of my feelings and depression. Some of them dated back to when I was around 10 years old. I did not want anyone to see what I had written. I did not want to talk to others about my depression. 40 years later I still do not like to talk about it, but finding others dealing with the same, over the past couple of years, has helped.
That’s good
I’ve found if I don’t express, I shut down. I become a zombie basically. And not a fun one.
Alice,
