“There is no point treating a depressed person as though she were just feeling sad, saying, ‘There now, hang on, you’ll get over it.’ Sadness is more or less like a head cold- with patience, it passes. Depression is like cancer.”
-Barbara Kingsolver, The Bean Trees

I kinda liked this Quote Today. Considering I have a fantastic kicking head cold and it’s starting to make me spiral into some depression 🙁 Wish some sunshine would come to our area instead of the rainy gloomy. This time of year always sucks for my moods. Need Vit D! Dear Lord Please bring me some sunshine and some 70 temps Pllleease I am begging you. I will be good for a little while I promise Ill try just please make it warm out please
I’m sorry about the head cold, Mommy. They suck. Like you, depression hits me hard when the skies are gloomy.
Thanks it will pass…. The sooner the better I would rather suffer the depression than the stuffed up nose I tell ya
