[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 321330, member: 393"] [SIZE=3][FONT=Comic Sans MS]Heather, you've shared many of your medical issues, your difficult child issues it's no surprise the holidays get here & you're depressed. As you know, my brain is somewhat scrambled & I have these same lows. I found the more homebound I became the worse it got. I forced myself outside each day - even if it was to do yardwork. I spend time, mostly reading, losing myself in something humorous; getting out my art or playing piano. Anything to shut down the thoughts. I've also set up a routine that I didn't have before. I schedule almost every minute of the day (because of my memory) but I've found that keeps me on task. I'm managing my fatigue & pain through that routine. Mostly, it's just the things that make me smile - my music, my art, reading all wrapped up in a warm afghan. Time to sort out & journal. [/FONT][/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
