Hi Lyssa:
You will find a wealth of information here on our "problems" with depression. I suggest going to the other forums too... I deal with panic alot. I hadn't realized how bad my depression and shut in situation was as of late until my husband said if I didn't get hired on by a virtual call in center.. I was going to have to go out and find a job. While I'm am no stranger to working...for some reason when I thought about having to go out and deal with people face to face, my stomach started getting upset, I got the cold sweats, and my whole body became clammy feeling. When I get like that, the depression really starts sinking in. All's I want to do is sleep! I was half-kidding my husband today and told him... do you remember that movie "Copy Cat" with Sigourney Weaver? Now, I don't have some weirdo stalking me... but I am just commenting on the fact that she, too, did not go out of her house... and had computers all around her. That was her "link" to the outside world. Anyway, I told him.... I could do that! Get another computer while I'm waiting on calls, so I can "surf" the internet. Like I said... [b]half-kidding. [/b] I can't seem to decide if it was because I don't want to sit here bored with no calls or was it going to actually contribute to my shut in feeling? Something tells me it would be the latter. Sorry, rambling.. anyway, I am glad you decided to post and maybe we won't be so alone about the way we feel. We might consider jumping off their "introduction" board and move this to a more fitting position. Danielle is liabile to get upset with me if I keep this rambling going on in here... by the way, Thank you Danielle for the welcome and yes, I am on with the panic center too. I will let you know where I am posting after this Lysse if you want to contiune to converse. You two ladies have a wonderful day!! ;)
