depression and lack of writing
23Mar07
To anyone curious, I do still fully plan on keeping this site up and having new content. I’ve been struggling with depression around being transabled (and just general random depression) for awhile now, and it’s become much worse over the past month or so. I don’t tend to feel like writing as much when I’m having depression issues, hence my lack of updates for the past month.
I’m still out here, and do plan to write more in the fairly-near future.
We’ve missed you, Robin. Hope things get a bit better for you.

I’d like to echo Kyla’s comment and say we’ve missed you. I suspected depression issues, which as you’ll know from my site, I have been entirely too familliar with. It sucks and saps you and makes you not want to write.
At the same time, I’ve found that writing about it at times actually helps somewhat.
OTOH, maybe not.
So, here’s a question for a simple entry for you: When was the last time you used your wheelchair and what did you do? :)
Haven’t been out since the last time I posted (still need to post the remainder of that trip!). It snowed majorly a week after that trip out, and the snow has remained since, just finished mostly-melting in the past couple days. Being a new wheeler, dealing with large amounts of snow seemed like a Bad Idea. Likely will go out next weekend for a bit again. :)
That would probably do you some good. Hopefully the chance to go out wheeling again will help relieve at least SOME of the depression and stuff. I know that it helps me somewhat when I can amp-sim, but my opportunities to do are extremely limited, and I can’t do at all in public.
