Preparation

I have a lot I've been meaning to blog about. I want to talk about the idea of depression deteriorating neurons, and thus the continuous downward spiral of the condition and the length at which it takes anti-depressants to kick in. I find this really interesting on multiple levels- and yet, I cannot seem to motivate my self to come up with a decent post. It's actually rather frustrating. I've also been in the mood to come up with something creative and artsy, but alas that escapes me too. Nothing I've attempted to do lately has turned out well. I think part of the reason is the stress of the end of the year has begun to catch up. Not only do I need to begin studying for finals, but there is the loom of media through out this week (there are so many police officers around to keep the media out of res. halls, its somewhat impressive and somewhat eerie) as well as the impending task of packing up my room, and saying good by to my home for the past year.
This morning I was being rather lazy, and laid in bed for an extra half hour, just looking around. As much as I'm going to enjoy the space of the apartment next year, I'm going to miss Lee Hall. I do not want to pack everything up and think about leaving anytime soon... but these next few weeks are going to go by really fast, and bring with them a ton of changes I don't know if I'm ready for.
I am ready for classes to end (even if I only have a week break before summer school) but leaving Tech, and leaving Alan.. and all my other friends here- I don't much want to do that.

Oh well, c'est la vie... and I'm sure the summer will go faster than I want it to- I know this semester did.

The info about depression is interesting. Can you suggest something I can look up or is this stuff you've learned in school? My mom was just asking me to explain depression to her. Harder than you'd think!
Good luck in the next few weeks. :o)

yes, dear, please explain what you are learning about the depression. "Downward spiral" are words that seem to fit right now. I used to blame it on the moon and my cycle but now I am thinking it must be something much more...like missing my midget soul mate.
