Hey gals!
Rose,
Yes he was a gamer when I met him, probably way before since his early teens. It got worse though. The depression is getting worse to through the years. And yeah, I think he plays to avoid and escape the depression and its causes. Our next appointment is in 2 weeks. And hey, he agreed to o back so that is good. Also, he has and appointment with his doc in December. Hopefully he will be true to his word and he will ask the doc for help for his depression. As for a list of things to talk about it is a great idea! I just have so much I don't know where to begin lol! I will just have to prioritize! Thanks for the help, tips and support!
Wildcat,
Lol funny. And true, cows are cute!
And yeah, you pinpointed it. Some days I feel socially unaceptable. I would be alltogether thrown out of the chimp community (or so I feel)! But hey, I will challenge my thoughts and move on! Got a date for a walk with a girlfriend of mine later so that will be fun!
As for my hubbies game it went great and he had fun. I was so pleased! As or his video games they are an addiction. He does use them to escape his depression and the causes thereof. And yes, the more he falls into the pit the more he hides. And yes, he has trouble communicating!
Him and me are very different and it causes fights. But hey, if he were exactly like me I would have kicked him out of the house a long time ago
!
All joking aside, I am hoping the therapy will help us and maybe help him a little. I am also hoing he does talk to his doctor when he sees him. Here is to hoping! Thanks again for helping me think about all this! Your point of view is always appreciated!

) and still got up at 11 am! I felt like come on I need sleep! But then I was awake and kinda hyper still so I had chamomille tea and breakfast and started my day lol. Still kinda hyper. My mind is racing and I feel so hot, I wish I had an icepack lol. On the up side, This hyper feeling kinda makes it harder for me to feel sad and depressed! Up side to everything I guess! And as Wildcat once told me, I should accept this is another part of myself expressing itself! Anyway, If I try to resist this and all that it just makes me anxious. So I am just going with the flow and I figure eventually my body will calm down. Oh and I am being careful not to bombard my husband with non-stop quick and loud chatter though it is tempting! When my mind races I feel like communicating lol. so here is me rambling on forum.
