I'm so excited...and I just can't hide it....

Yay..I'm in SUCH a good mood! Is it really a Monday? I went to my last counseling session today...yes you read that correctly my LAST session! Last as in NO MORE!!!! What a relief! It was amazing. I went in there thinking I had three more, but she said that she didn't think that I needed 3 more. She said that my actions lately have spoken for themselves. I'm learning to deal with my problems positively and not lashing out....not that I really lashed out anyway - I was mainly just very angry and bitter and thought I had nothing to live for. Depression is not a fun thing, but apparently "she" has shown me how to deal with things and manage my "depression" Whatever...it's everyone on Helium who makes me nearly pee my pants on a daily basis...it's watching my little boy try to learn to walk...it's my wonderful boyfriend always supporting me and loving unconditionally....it's my dad making me shut up and listen to reason...it's my determination to be there for my daughter so she knows she will always be loved...it's my totally awesome job...it's all those things...not the overpaid therapist! Anyway, maybe I did learn something from her, maybe I didn't....I guess it doesn't matter how I got better...I just did.

Of course, I'm always going to have to deal with depression. I've chosen to do it WITHOUT the use of drugs. I'm learning to deal with it on my own and I still and will always believe that laughter is the best medicine for anything and everything. Have you ever just laughed so hard until you could barely hold yourself up? It feels great doesn't it? Or if you're having a really bad day and you see someone you don't like trip and fall on their ass...doesn't it just make you feel so much better? I love to laugh....that's what makes me feel better...it works...so I want to keep laughing.....I'll be posting some more funnies today, so be prepared!
