> Well, it's one of those nights, drinkin some MErlot, hangin out by the comp, thinkin thinkin thinkin-is this all there is to life? watching people, playing with animals, sleeping, taking meds, wondering when I will be happy-I mean really happy. Happy where I don't have to wonder what this life is all about?
> I see children and want to hug them up and tell them they are innocent-it's adults sometimes who do the best they can but sometimes fail like my dad did. I miss my dad-I don't care how old I am-I miss the man-alcohol and drugs got the best of the man and shame of showing tears took him away from a family who loves him more than we love ourselves. So what do I do? What can a person do? Pray? Hope? Wish upon a star?
> I don't know. Does anyone know? Again, I don't knowWhen will we find happiness? Is it out there? Some say yes, but I'm not so sure. My therapist finally conceded that I will fight this battle most likely the rest of my life, but said that with newer and, hopefully, better treatments, the dips might be shorter and not as low.
We'll see.
