This past week I had a whole lot of emotions.
I had made the choice to stop taking my medicine for reasons not understood by medical professionals and other around me. I was doing so great! And feeling really good about that decision.
Then when I mentioned it all to my therapist, she kind of freaked out-and rightly so-my decision was not completely based on scientific/medical evidences. But I was also diagnosed with another mental illness and I emotionally took a blow. I was doubting my progress, my spirituality, any happy spells. I felt like I would never be free, that my life would always be an existence to view through depression glasses. And it broke my heart.
I was in the midst of these feelings when I received a book from my incredibly insiteful sister:
AFTER THE FALL.
I cannot tell you all that is in there, but know that if you are dealing with depression, PTSD, or mental illness in general, you should read this book. It is short and sweet, and very powerful. Even my dear Sheldy teared up, knowing how bogged down I was feeling.
