Depression
Sounds harsh heh, ‘stop whining and sort it out’: but you know what I mean don’t you? There comes a time when your friends need to stop listening to you, and kick you out the door telling you to do something about it all, or at least one of the things that you are whining […]
Crying. Sometimes there are tears of joy, sometimes tears of happiness, and even inspired tears of gratitude to life. The most annoying are angry tears; I remember getting infuriated with myself when I worked in Oracle (big american IT firm), because when I was at my angriest I would cry. Then there are sad tears.

Recently I’ve been blogging about the importance of asking for help, having been forced to get over myself and find loads of different ways of asking myself! Here are a couple of my blogs: pictures to inspire you, feeling guilty and why is it so difficult? I realised that it is often actually much more pleasant […]
Have you ever wondered what happened to the girl you used to be, or who you will become, or who on earth you have ended up becoming? I suddenly started wondering about this at the weekend as I watched one of my favourite films ‘Practical Magic’ with Sandra Bullock. I felt a tinge of sadness, […]
I’ve just spent two weeks sick, oh my god, since I’ve been a ‘grown up’, I can hardly think of any times that I’ve had to rest and recuperate for so long. Now once I got my head around it, I’ve really appreciated the experience, but initially it was blinking hard, because I had to […]
