The group seems very quiet at the moment, I don’t
know if it’s a good sign or a bad one. Personally I am having a
really tough time. Just to prove it doesn’t matter where you are or
what you are doing, I was in Prague
last week with my husband, having a short holiday. The place and the
weather were beautiful, but I could feel myself going down with a bout of
depression. In a way it was a good thing I was on holiday, as I had lots of
enjoyable distractions, but on my return home I went down like a lead
balloon. I am managing to go to work, but I am there in body, not in
mind. I have told my manager (which I don’t like doing), but I
think it only fair that he should know. At home, I am spending most of my
time sleeping and I have had to take a break my voluntary work. I have
increased my dose of Sertraline, but that hasn’t helped either.
