dalthauserI think it's begun.....................
Over the past 6 months it's kind of creeped up on me. The individual symptoms were so subtle - I didn't put two and two together. Marcel was the one who mentioned the possiblity, and I was like "Oh?....Oh....Ohhhhh!!!! Yeah, I see how it could be that".
I have a doctors appointment for a yearly checkup tomorrow, and I'll ask him for help. Mostly to see what I can do about the mood swings and melancholy episodes - those have really been throwing me for a loop. Might not mind going to a therapist if I can afford it - I have some personal issues I'd like some professional help with anyway (nothing serious - mostly putting things in perspective type of stuff).

So exciting - I'm entering a new period of my life!
(speaking of periods..... will be overjoyed not to have those anymore - been looking forward to that for a LONG time) :-)
