The truth is...I haven't posted much this summer because I've been a little depressed: here and there, on and off, now and then. Nothing major, but enough for me to think it's time to consider medication...again. So it really couldn't be a more perfect time for curious girl to bring her happy week to the blogosphere. Here's how it works: starting Monday post a picture and/or words on your blog about something that makes you happy each day through Saturday. Wanna get happy with us next week?

yay! i need to get back into my blog! be ready for a puppy picture i am sure!
I have been in my depression battle too. I switched meds and feeling better. Good luck with that! I am taking pictures like crazy. I am ready for happppppppy weeeeeek!
Hang in there sister. I recently graduated to the big kids pills, found a new girl and am happier than I've ever been. I've often thought adding chemicals to the brain to fix an issue was a poor way to do it. But sometimes you need it. Good luck, can't wait to see next week's entries.
Girl...I feel you! I don't really blog about it, but I've been in weekly therapy and medication since February...and it's been the best thing that has happened to me in years. Dustin notices the difference, I see the difference...I feel like I have new lease on life! If you ever need someone to just talk to about dealing with depression (especially while trying to take care of your family!), please know you always have a non-judging ear in me...you can always email me! Hugs Christy!
hang in there sweetie and know that you're not alone. i look forward to your happy posts but i'm just as eager to read posts that expose the less friendly side of reality.
xoxo
I totally want to get happy with you next week. But, I'll be without internet access for the whole week (and loving it). So, I'll play along in my own way ... I'll TAKE one picture each day that makes me happy ... and then post them the following week in a recap. =)
I'm totally up for happy week. Love you, my dear, dear friend.
Hey Christy, we haven't chatted in a while but you know you can always let me know if you need someone to talk to. I hope you'll be feeling better soon. I don't know whether you're seeing someone, but I tend to think that therapy plus meds is better than meds alone.....the hardest part is recognizing that you need to do something, and you've done that so I'm sure things will be looking up for you soon.
maybe a visit to norfolk is what you've been in need of this summer. i can't commit to happy week but i will try.
i too joined in the happy week to work through and out of the blues
what is it?
something in the air!!!??
What a fantastic idea!
I spent most of my summer severely depressed as well and finally decided to go back on meds as of last week. I've only been taking Celexa for about 4 days but wow, what a difference already. I like having my "happy" back. :)
