Hiya,
>>I guess my question is how to deal with lost dreams?
<<I know how much it hurts, trust me. But try to think of it as though they aren't *lost* dreams, they are dreams postponed. :-) Our journey through life is harder than most people's. But it doesn't mean we won't get to where we want to be.>>I am attractive and can be funny but I am nutcase.
<<Concentrate on that *attractive* and *funny* and fuggedabout the *nutcase* part. Keep emphasizing all your *good* traits....because I'm sure there are many.I never thought I'd get out of this last depressive episode, but I ended up feeling better for about 3 months now. (I'm feeling a little bummed right now, but I'm hoping that's not a recurrence, just a holiday thing).
It's OK to be upset about *wasted time* and all that, but I really do believe we can achieve our goals. And it's also OK to change those goals along the way. Keep learning, keep hoping, keep nuturing yourself. Hang in there. :-)
I'll be thinking of ya,
Susan
