Journaling has helped me... Whenever something is bothering me, I just start writing. Doesn't matter what I write and often times I shred it... It's just the process to get the thoughts out of my head that seems to help. I need to do it more often! Take care of yourself!

Hi there!

Did you know that the after effects of your anethesia can make you feel blue/depressed? You are trying to get over major surgery and are facing the unkinown. All these things can make you feel depressed. Even good stress is hard. If you can be more patient and gentle with yourself, it might help. You can only do the best that you can do day to day. I have clinical depression and lived with it for years now. I know that I have bad days and better days. I have very few "high" days. I just try to understand my moods and go with them (not indulge them) and make my way through the day. I am sure the mood will pass. Just remember, you have been and will be going through lots of change. I think reaching out to others, can never hurt you. I wish you the best and be well. Hang in there Sloopy!
