Sorry I haven't been around

Sorry I haven't been around

Well so much has happened I barely know where to start...

I've been seeing a psychologist to try and work through my grief and I am learning a lot about myself and processing my demons. I recently did a review with her for my mental health care plan review and for the first time in my life, I scored within normal range. This is huge for me as I was told depression would always be part of my life. Don't get me wrong, I still need medication, but for now I'm not in the doldrums.

I also met with my Dad and he actually seemed like he cared about me. This has also no doubt helped my depression ease. It was a great day.

I've seen a reduction in my hallucinations and paranoia so much so that my antipsychotic medication has been reduced. This means I can do more as I can concentrate and not so fatigued all the time.

I also bought myself a new laptop as my old faithful kicked the bucket. This means I am able to post again!

Christmas looks to be a good day this year. I am actually looking forward to it which I never thought I would hear myself say.

I guess things are looking up!
