A journey to find my Happy

I saw my psychiatrist today for my depression.  She adjusted some of my medication, but the biggest thing she wants me to change is the fact I am not in counseling.  I've done the counseling thing on and off since I was 10 years old - when my Dad was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis.  I told her I didn't think therapy would work for me because I obviously wouldn't be in this shape if it ever had.  But she said I need to find my "inner happiness".  I've decided to accept the challenge.

I've spent a lot of time at home alone, thinking and thinking and thinking about my situation.  The more I think about it the further down this deep dark hole I've fallen.  I feel like a failure at life because of my sicknesses.  I feel guilty for my husband having to do more.  I feel like a loser for sitting here all day doing practically nothing because I don't feel good.  I shun the sun.  The most I go outside is to either drop off or pick up my daughter from school and if I can get out of that I will.  I've become consumed in being sick.  I'm not funny anymore.  This blog is a total drag and I don't think it's helping anyone.  So I've decided my doctor was right.  I need to find my Happy.
