Ain't all gloom n' doom today, though.
Beatles music makes me feel good. Got Beatles music on. Had homemade veggie korma for eating. Got a phone call from my college chum in AK this morning.
Current Reading:
Why Zebras Don't Get Ulcers - Robert Sapolsky.
To anyone reading this who's prone to depression... (Nahh, no one on my friend's list worries about THAT!! rotfl)...Knowledge is power. Get to know thyself, and what is currently known about depression (and stress) - that book is one good place to start. Start understanding the nature of what troubles you...and you're on your way to easing it.
I'm quite excited by the 'learned helplessness' hypothesis regarding depression and it's motivation-draining effects - the reason so many depressives can't seem to make even small improvements to their lives - that hypothesis allows a logical link to past traumas/stress.
More later.
