> I haven't gone to class since my visit to the ER. I don't want to live life. I just want to sleep and dream. Life is too hard. I wish I could escape.
>**** I know that feeling well. But somehow I usually manage to wake up in the morning and make myself do it. But I know the feeling.
> I took a nap and had a dream and it was fun. I woke up and wish I hadn't woken up. I just want to dream all the time.
**** I don't. Because three quarters of the time my dreams are horrible. But I had a good dream last night, and I wish I could live in that dream. But that's why you have good dreams - to help you clarify what you want in life and to give yourself a reminder of what good feels like.

> Deneb**** Therapy is the best way to get out of a rut like that. It's hard to tell, but it sounds like it may be depression. But therapy is most helpful, at least for me. It's hard to just 'pull yourself up by your bootstraps'. It helps sometimes to have someone cheering you on.
