Vicki, I'm sorry that you have so much going on, and all at the same time. It *does* get overwhelming and even I've been known to sit down and cry, asking for just several days of "nothingness" so I can de-stress and unwind. But it does sound to me like you could very well be clinically depressed. Maybe you should give your doctor a quick call and see if you can get on some Paxil or Wellbutrin or something along those lines. Not a huge dose but just enough to help even out the brain chemistry. As for the great 2008, well, we can always hope, can't we? -- Piggy's Pad

In reply to: V~ 's message, "I worked thru both holidays... Christmas Eve/Christmas Day, New Year's Even and New Year's Day. Heck, I've been working about every day! Great for my paycheck, but I'm tired. Was supposed to go back down to my normal 25 hours a week, but so far that hasn't happened. My boss has needed time off to take care of things, so I've been working a lot. As I stated above, it's helped with my depression.... and my paycheck... but I'm really starting to get tired. Very happy we have low-maintenance dogs here today!!!!" on 6:57:27 am, Mon, 01/14/08

Well, I was diagnosed with Severe Major Depression as a child. Have been on various meds for a chemical imbalance for years now. I'm currently taking Paxil. I think it just all hit me at once.... Losing my FIL, losing Snickers and Jacob in 4 days time, dealing with various illnesses with them and myself... money problems... trying to help my MIL as she is depressed and lonely after losing dad. It just all ganged up on me.... on top of the holidays being sad for me cuz of my own parents. I'm feeling a TON better this week! Thanks! (NT) -- V~, 1:46:39 pm, Wed, 01/16/08
