Depression is one of those things that you can recover from, but it never really goes away. I was diagnosed with moderate-to-severe depression around two years ago, finally making sense of a lot of the problems that I'd been experiencing. I am not a moody teenager, though I admit that my PMS is something to be feared. I'm not 'just being grumpy'. I have an illness, which is fortunately isn't bad enough that it requires me to take medication.

Writing, reading and drawing are my means to escape. It's difficult, though, because I'm a terrible perfectionist. If I don't like what I'm drawing, I'll scrap it. If there's a major problem with something that I write, I find it hard to carry on. Sometimes I find it very hard to post the things that I write here, and I only continue to do so because of the positive feedback that I receive.

I've been happy though, lately, and I've been doing my very best to get back into university and it's been working. I went in today, even though I didn't want to, and a fat lot of good that did me. I ended up leaving fifteen minutes in feeling like I was about to throw up. The worst part is, I was supposed to go to the cinema with my friends today, to see Alice in Wonderland, but naturally, feeling like that, I didn't go. Bah. I got up early for nothing. What a waste of a day.

On a lighter note...

How many Poles does it take to change a lightbulb?

Just one, but he needs a Lithuanian to spin the table.

Are you online? Do I have you online? I struggle to connect the people I have on messenger to the ones on LJ these days. Especially when they keep changing their names

Hahaha...yeah...I was phoenixdown7...then I wanted to change it to lamp_spirit...then I hated that and wanted to change it back, but phoenixdown7 had already been taken. DX so I had to change it to phoenix_down7...which is lame.
