Thanksgiving Thanks
I know everyone is getting ready for the holidays and giving thanks. A few weeks ago I almost lost everything I held dear to me. My home, my fiance, and my family. I had taken a real deep turn in deporession. Losing my job so many months ago made it hard for me., I think that and the fact that this had been the longest I have ever been without work just really got to me. I pushed everyone away from me including my children. No matter what anyone said or did I just couldnt get happy. I never had felt like that. I had aches and pains that I never had before. I gained almost 40 lbs. I was a complete and total mess. I made a trip to the doctor and another call to a therapist. I now feel better than I ever have, This is also the reason why I chose what I chose for my project. I just want to remind everyone to give thanks everyday for what you have, I feel that even in the hardest times you will always have your family. ALways remember they love you. I thank my stars everyday for what I have. I hope everyone has a good holiday..

Dear Jinx,
ReplyDeleteHappy Thanksgiving! We all have so much to be thankful for. I want to thank you for sharing your experience, it has reminded me to stay strong. In this economy, many of us will be approaching the bridge of depression. I too am without employment and we are having extreme difficulties. I just cannot imagine the pain you were feeling. I am greatful the doctors were able to help you so that you can continue in your studies and graduate. You have alot of work to do, and so much to look forward for. I am so glad that you choose this topic for your paper. It will not only help you while writing it, it will help us when we read it. Thank you.
