I've got out of that particular downward spiral and now I feel I little stronger and able to fight. And I intend to win, in time :)
For now it is all about resting; just allowing myself some grace and cutting out the 'I have tos' and the 'I really ought tos'... Resting now will give me energy and strength and hopefully when I do recover the good times will last a while :) Wow, see how much more positive I am? - I never thought I would get here again.
You know one thing that has really helped? This....
HOPE; it grows within me again.....
Namasté my friends xx

Hope you feel better soon and that is very positive that you are being gentle on yourself and taking it easy and resting. That was my biggest lessons this year, as I also had the flu for 3 weeks. Best wishes to you and a very Happy New Year in 2013 xx Love and happiness to you always :)
I was in that dark place several times in the past year and it was only through sheer stubbornness (and support from people in my life and my wonderful, wonderful therapist and doctor) that I'm still here. Oh, and my cats. They actually were the reason I fought so hard--I was so afraid of what would happen to a banged up (but still handsome) 8 year old and a neurotic 5 year old (extremely afraid of people).
Keep trying--it's worth it in the end

be kind to yourself. i think when we get sick & our bodies tend to shut down, our minds go to that dark place too. i too struggle with those dark times... but getting outside has helped me. although i have a job & are among people, it's not quite enough to take the dark edge away. i guess i've learned to be a "functioning, depressed person" sort of like a "highly functioning alcoholic". if you have to take some time away from your blog - do continue reaching out to others.
