1. I've lost almost all the weight I'd gained on Paxil. I'm eating healthy foods and exercising. Not as much as I'd like, but better than sleeping 20 hours a day.
2. I sucked it up and got help for my outrageous credit card debt last night, and a huge burden has been lifted.
3. My boss yelled at me for not doing a certain project all year, and now I'm doing it, as if his yelling at me and yet not firing me was the motivation I needed to actually *start* the project.
4. I've felt pretty happy for the past two weeks, although I've got some anxiety issues over a crisis my brother is going through. But it amazes me that his pain hasn't plummeted me back into depression. I wonder if that is a sign I'm getting better?In any event, life isn't perfect. I'm not as motivated/ambitious/thin as I was 5 years ago. But I'm a whole bunch better than last year.
Tell me, do these good periods ever truly *last?*
