As you know I battle off & on with that same demon. Sometimes feeling such intense despair & sadness I feel as if I can't go on and then just as suddenly as it descends it lifts and I am filled once again with joy and optimism. I have been assessed, and checked out and it seems it is just part of who I am and I'm slowly learning to ride those waves of depression because experience has proven that they do eventually pass. Good that you're getting your thyroid and hormone levels checked - I recently did the same. Turns out I am "exceptionally" healthy and "it's" all in my head ... but I already knew that at heart.<br /><br />Thanks for all the lovely comments and much love to you & your Gang from les Gang here at 29 Black StreetSusanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00260575133577123845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6003489296067000954.post-29447466462745681252009-05-24T04:01:50.567-05:002009-05-24T04:01:50.567-05:00I know exactly what you are talking about.

I love the depth of the last three...and that rainbow was captured beautifully. <br /><br />I hope that you find out what is going on with your unexpected depression...do you think your artistic expression is related to moods...I think I sometimes write more vividly when I'm in a mood. (...silver lining and all that)Sometimes, I find out what is wrong later...when I realize I have buried a memory that wants to surface.<br /><br />When a blue mood strikes, I go for a walk, accomplish something and <br />sometimes, I just give in and go to bed. What a cosy bed you have made...beautiful...<br /><br />I hope your cheerfulness returns soon.

I've never experienced REAL depression. I have had some 'down' times usually caused when I'm upset about one thing --and that leads to many other (little things) that are wrong. Mine is more of a Pity Party and it doesn't last long at all. You situation may be something totally different. Get it checked out.<br /><br />Your new quilt and bed set is very pretty. I hope you like it.. <br /><br />Your garden/yard is looking great. Love the Gardenia...

Your new bed linens are beautiful.Oh, and I like to keep the house nice and cool when it's hot out, and snuggle under a feather comforter at night. <br /><br />You are so lucky to be harvesting green peppers and squash already. My zucchini is forming buds. But it will be a while yet, before I will be grilling some!<br /><br />Your flowers are lovely, and a walk in the woods always lifts my spirits. Always!<br /><br />It's so good to hear that you're your old chipper self again. Have a wonderful Memorial Day weekend. I'll cruising down the river in a jet ski this weekend!
