I can't believe so much time has passed since my last post! Sorry to be absent for so long - I've been so busy that I haven't noticed how quickly time has flown by. I also wanted to send a late Happy Thanksgiving shout out to my Canadian friends!
Last week I worked over 65 hours - my regular work week is supposed to be only 28 hours. Needless to say, I've been very busy. Fortunately, this week should be back to normal as my work project is mostly wrapped up. Ultimately, I can't commit that much time to work long term. I need to re-focus time on my family, on my kids. I also need to take time for myself - for exercise and mental downtime.
In other news, tomorrow I'm going on TV with my husband to speak about my depression. I'm very nervous about it. Fortunately, my husband is very calm. If anyone of you is in the Vancouver, British Columbia area and able to come be part of the studio audience, click here to learn how to be involved. My interview is at 2 p.m. I'm taking deep breaths right now and plan on listening to a relaxation track in a few minutes.
What I'm most nervous about is representing a face of depression. I want people to feel like they can relate to me. I want people to know that they don't need to be ashamed. I want people to know it's okay to seek medical attention.
Wish me luck!
Good luck!
ReplyDeleteGood luck! Sounds like you're doing a good thing.
ReplyDeleteThank you both! It went pretty well. I'll post a link when the video is available.
