Good news I can go home on Friday. I’m looking forward to seeing Bawley Point in all it’s glory. Returning to the place I have called home for the past 35 years is something to look forward too. Hugging family and friends, swimming in the ocean, the bush both burnt and green, the birds and roos and the community spirit I have missed. Together they paint a picture of my home.
It’s funny how I miss the everyday mundane things. My stay in the hospital has been a positive experience for 95% of the time. The remaining 5% has most likely been attributable to living in a hospital environment, with a schedule for meals and activities. Which has been very helpful in getting my life back into a comforting routine.
I know I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again never take for granted what you have because you never know when it will be gone. I implore everyone to take care of themselves and others. If you or someone you know feels depressed for a period of time longer than two weeks seek professional advice immediately. It’s so very important that you reach out and help each other. Nothing is more important in my opinion than good mental health.
Imagine you had all you need yet you still couldn’t enjoy it. Imagine you had all the love you needed yet you couldn’t return that love. That is what depression is. Twenty plus years of experience has led me to say this. Don’t let yourself or a loved one suffer any longer.
