Previously, I have written about my triggers to depression being frustration and anger. I have gone straight to anger today, because of an article by a christian group who feel that homosexuality is a sin (see footnote). This has caused me to feel very low. Anger is not pleasant feeling and is really not helping anybody.  I just hope that, in some small way, my blog might sow some seeds, somewhere, that might contribute to the changing of these pernicious views.

I also feel guilty for feeling depressed and that really bothers me.  I have a good job, loving family, lots of friends, good physical health and enough of everything that I need, but still I feel awful.  The world's crises and other people's problems, just make it worse.  I know in my science mind that it is a medical issue, an imbalance in my brain, but it doesn't allow me to get rid of these feelings. Hopefully it will all settle down, as the medication really starts to take effect, but at the moment I am not hopeful.  This is the worst day I have had for a while.  I think I had better just have a lazy day tomorrow and see if I can settle myself.
