There's a few things you may not know about me:
- I hate going out. Like REALLY don't like to venture out of my house. I rarely get cabin fever.
- I'm allergic to soy which means if I ever found out that I'm allergic to dairy - I'd be SCREWED. Upside? I'd totally be thin... because I'd eat nothing.
- I suffer from depression.
I try not to rely on my friends too much because getting out of depressive funks are really hard for me. I become closed off, kinda mean, downright angry at times, and not fun to be around. I've seen more therapists than I can count and none of them really helped me. I believe in therapy as a tool but at some point, it was my therapists that won because I didn't learn much.
I started to see a life coach because it felt like the walls were caving in at times and I needed real techniques for getting back to reality. I didn't know what to do. I buried myself in my work and disconnected from reality. It happens in cycles but it's a b*tch to break out of.
I'm not sure why I'm telling anyone this - my husband grew up in a culture where you don't air your dirty laundry - but I've had these issues since I was a kid.
If you're suffering from depression - even if it's just on occasion, I urge you to seek help. I don't know what I'd do without my fantastic husband but I know that, at times, I'm too much for him to handle.

My dad and my husband both suffer from depression. I struggle with anixety. We all have our challenges.
My husband is allergic to milk. If he were allergic to soy, cooking would be so much harder!
