Blonde Ambition

I can feel a depression coming on. I think I’ve been heading that way for awhile now. I get like that every once in awhile. I don’t know what causes it and I don’t know how to stop it.

I usually just ride it out…miserably.

I can tell I’m heading there because one of the first signs is my anti-social behavior. There are only a select few that I want to be around. I don’t want people stopping by my desk to chit chat. Idle conversation irritates me. I want to be invisible to almost everyone around me.

Another sign is the headaches. I have had a headache now for a week and a half. OTC medication just dulls the pain and makes it tolerable for a little while. Then it comes back full force…enough to drive me to my knees.

Yet another sign is my inability to function. I find myself getting further and further behind at work because I lack the motivation to do what needs to be done.

It’s going to make it hard to focus on what I need to as far as my goals go. I have a hard time writing when I feel this way.

I can see all the signs…but I have not figured out how to stop it.

How do you get a handle on depression?
