Hello everybody, saw my GP on Monday, because I have been having a few down times, he is a fantastic GP, listened to me, and suggested I change my anti depressants, and go for counselling again, because as he said I am living with a chronic health condition, with little help from family, ( hasten to add I have lived with depression for 7 years now) I think I would be even worse if it weren"t for my granddaughter. My achievement for this week was driving down to Norfolk to see my mum, difficult at the best of times, but because I felt the way I did, it proved more of a challenge, so I was doubly pleased with myself, even if I ached all over and felt cream crackered! Home now and taking in the view of a full moon, so feeling connected to all of you. I hope you have a good weekend whatever you are doing, and I am still smiling, still waving, even if it is proving to be a bit harder to do, take care of yourselves, xxx

Glad you have a helpful GP and well done you for the drive to Norfolk- driving is super tiring.
Hope you have a lovely weekend 😊
What a super GP
Sending thoughts and good wishes - enjoy the sun today. Smile and wave xx
Good morning fairy, I hope you are feeling bright today. I follow you, as your posts are inspiring, most helpful and I always think you are one beautiful soul.
So this morning reading your post, I felt compelled to reply, I never usually do, as I don't feel I have much to contribute, but again your post fairy makes me. You are always so good with advice, with your light and breezy ways, I was a little taken aback to hear you suffer from depression my lovely. That's a tough cookie to be dealt, I had it many years ago for a couple of years and it took every ounce in my being to literally step out from and leave that monster behind. Know that you are not alone in depression, most people have had it at some point, and some people who never have experienced it will go on and have it.
Enjoy the full moon, knowing we are all underneath it, howl loudly my lovely, at it and enjoy time spent with your granddaughter, those times are precious.
Sending much love, and two arms to give you a hug.
Davina.

I'm very sorry to hear about your depression. It can be a great burden. You are very good at sounding positive and I'm sure that helps you as much as it helps other people who read your words , but I'm glad your GP is aware of the situation and so helpful. It isn't easy to support other people when you aren't doing well yourself, but I'm sure your Mum must have been very grateful for your effort to see her. Are you having your granddaughter this week? If you are it'll help you to get through till your new meds kick in. I'm praying that everything will be easy for you. Take care x
Be well pleased with yourself for doing the drive - I'm sure you feel better for having made the visit to your Mum. Have a peaceful weekend and here's hoping you'll feel tons better when the meds get to work. xxx
