Has depression crept in for you or worsened? I hope you are dealing with that soon. Yes, I know you likely feel ,”what the hell would that do.?” I live that as well but to go on with my hopes of improvement,I need to add more strength to my moods to keep on. For myself ,yes. For my wife as well! Down days are overwhelming but dealing with my doctor about depression has helped. I had nothing to lose by telling my doctor”I’m sinking. I need help to persevere.”
No lies from me, it is damn hard but I so much want to better and get some joy back in my life. I’d like you to get better!

@countzeller Depression is now an ongoing thing for me. Many days, I don't even get out of bed, and now I don't even want to eat. I've lost 25lbs in the last couple of months, despite really trying to eat, only to make a rush to the bathroom to vomit. I think doctors are not interested in old people, at least I get that feeling. I'm still trying to find a new doctor, but it's difficult in Toronto. I have my name down in several places.
