Below are entries written 2 weeks ago.
To my utmost surprise, I actually found a depression support group in my city. I've always thought these groups don't exist in Malaysia. So , there I was last week.
Again, I was surprised by the attendees. I can relate to them very much. They may come from different age group, race, economic background, yet I feel a strong connection with them.
The pain that we had to go through, that was what bonded us together.
Although we didn't get too personal, some of the things discussed were close to my heart. I did feel encouraged.
Finally, for the first time, in a very long time,
- I felt 'less alone' in this struggle.
for the first time, in a very long time,
I felt 'that things may brighten up'
for the first time, in a very long time,
- I felt 'I might just get better'.
for the first time, in a very long time,
- I felt 'I just might be OK.
Written a week ago,
I'm very grateful that I haven't had any anxieties at work yet.
In my past experience, I always have anxieties within the first few days of work.
I'm giving credit to the new medication I'm taking, SULPIRIDE.
However, I'm quite confused as why I'm taking it because I'm diagnosed BIPOLAR_BORDERLINE.
My dear readers, I honestly don't remember the last time I felt this 'normal'.
No worries, No quick heartbeats, No anxieties, No Fear.
To some people, going through an ordinary day is mundane.
But for me, ordinary means BLESSING.
Last Sunday, I drove 30 mins to have dinners with my Depression Support Group members.
It was so comforting to see familiar faces waving at me when I arrived at the restaurant.
My friend asked, "I thought you wouldn't come because you were afraid to travel".
I answered, "I decided to start making changes in my life".
She gave a very wide smile.
