Depression

Hi, Friends!

From everything I've been reading on this webiste, but mostly books and documentaries on Cliff's I-pad. plus all those meds, barely tested and not sure how it helps with this and also helps with that. It's crazy, no pun intended. I suffer from depression, and it may last a week of sitting in front of the tv, not dressed or eating. The house would be a wreck.

But with the ADHD, I don't think the depression lasts as long and isn't as severe. I mostly get manic, like I have done twice, or is it three time? this week. I just didn't want to get in bed, so I stayed on the computer until 5am Friday and 245am the next day and 2:30 last night. I'll take an extra ambien and maybe a couple of valium. That should do the trick.

I'm really not going to that. My husband keeps the pills with him and gives me my directed doses and no begging in the world will make him change the instructions. He gets mad wihen I refuse to take my ambien at 8 o'clock, but I like to stay up later than that and watch "Crimal Minds," and other crime dramas(and I wonder why I have bad dreams).

I have a story to write, edit, rewrite again and enter in one of my contests. I think it is the Pet Newsletter. Since I only write about non-fiction, I lack the imagination I need to write a believeable fictional story. I'll keep trying. I've been learning a lot from y'all!

Love from Lesley and Seinna
