I Battle Depression

I fight the fight that many do, I don't do it any better or worse, just my own way. Each of us that do face it, usually have to face it alone, some get help one way or another and we do it our way. There are times we win a bit and others we don't. But most of us continue to fight it for whatever reason drives us on. I think my drive is just shear stubbornness.

But this last couple of weeks, I got into a program through the VA that allows me to obtain counselling through my computer. Telemental Health. Via webcam, I can now go to a weekly session with my Dr. without leaving my home. Hell, my room.

Now most on here don't know my situation, but due to an initial head injury and more since then (something about seizures and floors just don't work well for ones head), I have a few issues I deal with, one being light sensitivity or weirdly known as photophobia (NOT a phobia btw). It makes things difficult in going outside or for traveling to and from places. So, this is a blessing.

Of course this doesn't do away with all appt's I have to go to, but this is one less physical and emotional stress I don't have to deal with when I have so many others already. Still have neurology, physical therapy, all the tests I can't get out of because of meds I take, all that fun stuff.

But just had to share a positive note when dealing with such a negative subject. As always, anyone taking the time reading my ramblings are appreciated. Hope it wasn't a waste. Take care.
