If it's real bad, I cry. I try to embrace my feelings and go with the flow.

The hardest times I have these days isn't with the loneliness...it's with the bills. Worrying weather or not this pay or that pay is going to cover my expenses. Many paydays I cry...but I manage to get by...with alot of prayers and thanks flowerforyou .


This is me. I don't often get depressed, but when I do, just getting myself to laugh just doesn't work.

I cry if I need it, but mostly what I do is praise G-d. Usually by singing. It may sound weird, but to me when I'm feeling insignificant, thanking G-d for what I do have and what he's done for me always carries me out of the blues. I take the dog for a walk (raises seratonin levels)and sing quietly to myself. It works wonders for me.

After that, I talk to my sister. We were raised to compete with each other; she was the Golden Child and I was the screw up and we carried that attitude into our adult lives. We wasted a lot of years not getting along. About 10 years ago, we tossed the past and just decided to love and accept one another. I can tell her anything! It's great. bigsmile

My problem is that I regularly have too much adrenaline and cortisone in my blood ... I need something to counteract the adrenaline. :laughing:

Pets are good for therapy and stress management.

Lady and me go for walks or work out in the yard. I shouldn't encourage her when she makes the neighbor's guineas fly up a tree. And she only chased that neighbor's cat up a tree because she was bored this morning. When she is running real fast it is like she sails through the air.:smile:

I am only a thirty second Cherokee. I am the descendant of Morning Dove. Her folks walked the trail of tears. But she did alright for herself. She married a doctor.
