I cant remember when I have been so depressed. Maybe I watch too much news. But the amount of awful things going on in this country is unprecedented. What is really mind numbing is the prospect of Rats being in control in perpetuity They have perfected the Cheat, they control the swing states. Reading posts on FR about this I agree that there is no path now for any republican nominee to garner the needed electoral votes needed to win. I also don’t see any spectacular protest developing to rid ourselves of the vile Rat Cancer. I’m in twilight time now and in a few years it wont affect me anymore but I worry for my Kids and Grand kids. I keep trying to make them aware but they are too busy with kids and seem unaware. This week if they go after Trump what will happen? Unfortunately probably not much. I wish the people would rise up…

I think Q said pretty much the same thing.
I think God said pretty much the same thing.
I do understand your depression. I just want to suggest a couple of things, other than popcorn, kek.
Do you have anything you do that makes you happy? For me, it is playing the piano and swimming.
Recently, have no clue why, my neck and my shoulders have been absolutely wrecking my day. I haven’t been able to swim :(. My hand is getting better, but I’m doing a lot of exercises and things for my hand, so I can play piano longer and a bit better.
But the neck and shoulders have been something else. I got this book, “Built from Broken.” Very interesting... so I am back to stretching and he talks about weight loading? I am not at that part yet, sorry, but I have also been hanging upside down, and neck and shoulders are better.
Aside.. I had gone to the shoulder doc, he took an x-ray, prescribed pills that messed my stomach up, and sent me to PT. I realized it was all connected to my neck and my posture. Hence the book.. I’ll fix myself 😂.
I also got a kneeling chair for the computer.
Okay, so why am I telling you all of this?? Well, this book also talks about walking for 20 min a day and what it does for your body and brain. I understand if you can’t walk, have no idea what your situation is.. but can you get outside?
So.. let go of telling your kids and grandkids. Take a walk or?, and do something that makes you happy. Write this all down in a diary, perhaps. But don’t be negative! Realize who will read this.
Years ago, I read a story about an elderly woman who was very depressed. Her pastor noticed she had a gift with African Violets. He suggested she start growing more and giving them to sick or ailing people from the church, new mothers, etc. When she died, she was happy and well loved by her church. I have NO idea if this is a true story or just a story, but the point is, to do something that is out of yourself.
Be remembered as the happy grandparent, the loving grandparent, the giving grandparent.
Helps to re-read Q drops.
