I think I know why I am depressed

[zenmondo]

I am battling a mild depression these days and I am pretty sure of the cause.

This will be my first thanksgiving alone. Ever. Last year I had Conor, and his mom even gave us turkey to eat so she saw him that day, but I will just be at home alone.

I'll probably order pizza. Or maybe go to a restaurant, maybe both I dunno.

I wish I was stronger and not dealing with depression, I mean I should just accept my lot in life and carry on. Which is what I will do in the end, just be sad about it. Still sucks, no matter how you cut it.

Do you have anyone over there you could hang out with? I'm spending Thanksgiving alone too, but that's cause I'm kind of scared of people in general and my mom's spending the day with a crazy Republican family that doesn't believe in global warming.

Yeah it does, and I am really sorry you don't have Conor.

*hugs* Having been there myself, I have compensated by spoiling myself rotten. The generic Thanksgiving dinner never appealed to me anyway, so the pizza sounds like a good idea. ;) Other people I know have volunteered to serve Thanksgiving dinners to the homeless. Just suggestions.

heyas^.^ mebbe you would like to have food with me and my fam? i'll have t ask the folks, but you'd definitely be welcome. it's not cool to leave a friend orphanded for such a family/togetherness holiday. so yeah, i'll check it with the parents and then i'll get back to you. if you'd like to join us, that is. i really hope so, because we haven't hung out in ages and i really miss you.

hang in there schweetie, i know pretty much how you're feeling, because i'm feeling that way right now.

hafta go for now, but i'll give you a call when i know something. how's that?

That is really sad. I think anyone would be sad over that. I hope things get better for you!

I look at my arms and legs this wonderful day before Thanksgiving and I think "Still sucks, no matter how you cut it" is the funiest thing I've ever read in my life.

Uh... not that I'm trying to give you any ideas. Cuttting is bad, mkay?

Personally, I always prefer situational depression to unexplainable depression (well, once I figure out what the instigating factor is). I've found that when I realize it's situational, I can begin to recognize sorrow or grief as distinct from the depression.
