Listening to yourself is a good thing, it’s like an early warning system: if things are getting too much it will tell you. For example, it can tell you if you’re working too much. And am I? Yep! What am I doing with the warning signals? Not much, just blocking them out. Is this wise? [...]

Getting comfortable
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged advice, depression, work on June 27, 2009 | 2 Comments »
Are you sitting comfortably? Then I’ll begin…
I’ve been reading Prozac Nation these last few days (interesting, but does nothing for the mood!) and I just read a chapter where she talks about how sometimes you can get into a sort of comfort zone and to aid your recovery you have to break out of it. [...]
Old habits die hard (?)

So, I’m home and I think the whole world and his dog knows this! My mood has dropped but I’ve been wondering why: is it because I’m home and everywhere has memories of how I felt at a certain time, or is it because it just does naturally?
If it’s the first, then obviously something needs [...]

Energy Transfer

There seems to be a gap between intake and conversion of energy: The food/drink goes in… but never seems to appear as energy. I’m worn down, every move seems difficult; maybe it’s the heat, maybe it’s sleep quality, maybe it’s the thought of having to go to work, maybe I’m not being stimulated enough? Who [...]
Thinking about what could have been and other London based ramblings

For ages I wanted to study at UCL, and to an extent I still wish I was there. Don’t get my wrong, I love my University I’m at, but, well, I really love UCL. The reason I’m not there, or didn’t even apply is because my parents wouldn’t let me: they said London was dangerous [...]

(and the only reason I’m writing this is because I have no ideas for a fathers’ day card!)
All week I’ve wanted to write, but I’ve either not had time or when I’ve had time I’ve not felt like doing anything. But now I have, now I am home. Straight out of student land and into [...]

Mist. Fog. Cloud. Call it what you will, but here it is. There’s something creeping over me, like clouds across the sky. A breeze gently blowing across something that isn’t a town, city or country; a breeze that’s blowing across my head, bringing the stormy clouds together, to cloud my judgement, to cloud my senses, [...]
Goals

Having things to look forward to is good, right? If so, then why do I feel so negative cum apathetic towards this? This will be amazing, this will be great… yet I see it as a drag; something I have to do. I’ve just booked my tickets for Sziget, 1 week seeing Snow Patrol, Lily [...]
