    Well done for talking to her
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    I'm really proud of you for talking to her and telling her how things are. That's really important.
    Do a little of something that makes you happy every day!

    The black cloud is definitely lifting. I am sleeping so much better and I know that has a major influence on my mood.
    The more sleep I get, the more I want and the more relaxed I feel. After being so chronically sleep-deprived for so many years, I'm enjoying the feeling of waking up in the morning and stretching and just feeling relaxed. My psychologist put it very well on Monday when she said, " you are not a manic zombie any more. You dont feel the need to be doing doing doing all the time just to keep going, your body is learning that it can actually relax and allow you to relax."
    I feel a more positive and able to enjoy things rather than just do them to be busy. I feel connected to A and the thought of 'tomorrow ' no longer fills me with fear and dread. I know I still have a long road to travel but I am willing to travel it. I can say at this moment and for the past few days, I no longer want to end my life, I feel like there is a way through and I am going to make it.
    Thank you all for helping me reach this point. I cant remember the last time I felt a bit of hope like this.

    Aw thanks guys. It is A's birthday today, a big one so we are celebrating. My daughter and I had great fun decorating a cake for him. I've never tackled fondant icing before but we are very proud of it. So today is all about the big guy and the wonderfulness that is him. Both boys are back to work so we are doing a bit of running about again but I am still maintaining a relaxed outlook.
