Thanks - I was just whining and feeling sorry for myself. Momentary blip. The PMA and GAL goes to he11 when I get really busy with work and can't get out and do the things I'm used to doing.
Unfortunately, that'll be the case for at least the next 2 months - trying to graduate this spring. But, today is much brighter and I know I can do what I set out to do. It's heartening to see a friend of mine who had sunk into deep depression a few years ago. He became suicidal at one point; it was pretty bad. But now he's totally on top of things and leading a rich, full life, pursuing the things that interest him. It's nice to have examples like that, to know that you didn't have to sink as low and to know how high you can rise.
