Oh alright I'm Guilty

That's right I have been so wrapped up in doing business I haven't been as diligent as I should be in checking in, but Then again I was in keep myself busy mode.  I've finally gotten out of my annual depression.  This year was extremely stressful as Jan 20th would have been Gayle's 21st birthday.

I pretty much was in a space of keep myself too busy to think or dwell on the fact that she was not here.  I recognize that this is a coping mechanism for me and I tend to embrace it.  But the 20th has come and gone and I can start to be myself again.

Hi Cheryl,

Recognising a problem is a large part of dealing with it. We all develop
coping mechanisms, and I'm like you - got to keep busy and not think
about the problem, until I'm ready to.

Glad you're back to your usual self again! :-)

Sometime words just aren't enough.
I'm glad you are here.

Thank you, sometimes we just have to do what works. Since I realize that I go through this a few times a year it makes it easy to understand what is going on with me and why.
