As someone who struggles with depression and mood disorders, I dont really know how to process what Im feeling regarding the news of Robin Williams. Some days it is a struggle to get out of bed and right now Im still questioning why I thought leaving my friends and support system in Columbus was a good idea. I will be very honest - if I did not have my dogs, I dont know that I would have had the strength to carry on after a series if events taking place in my relatively recent past. We all have ghosts. Some haunt us more prominently than others. If you are having a hard time, talk to someone. Talk to me - even if we dont know each other well. Find something that makes you feel like you have purpose. For me, it was dog rescue. When shit hit the fan with central Ohio rescue drama this past spring, part of why I took it so hard and essentially quit was for this reason. I felt like my reason was taken from me. Im back to feeling, more often than I would like to admit, like maybe I dont have that. But...my own dogs keep me going. Just dont give in to those ghosts. My thoughts are with Robin Williams friends and family.
