Good Idea, Bad Idea

Good Idea: Talking to your roommate who suffers from depression and therefore knows what you are going through. Roommate who knows when they need to worry about you and when they don't. Roommate who goes to the same school as you do and therefore can offer an informed opinion on what you should do about your situation.

Bad Idea: Talking to your overly neurotic family who worry too much and have no idea what kind of consequences you face in the situation you are in.

But on the upside sometimes you need to talk to people who are more scared for you than you are for yourself in order to realize what needs to be done.

Dad made me smile. He didn't know I had depression. How did he manage to miss that? :)

I'll see if prompt care is open tomorrow and I'll go get a refill on my Paxil. See how that helps.

I just hope Mom and Mike and Dad don't worry too much tonight. I want them to be able to sleep tonight.
