Who is Stormy?

I am very happy to have all of your congrats and well-wishes. I have been more depressed these last few months than I ever have been. The diploma, while a nice validation, gave me a stab of ironic pain-in-the-gut.

I'm sorry to hear that you've been depressed, littlek, but I would like to take the time to offer you my heartfelt congratulations on your latest accomplishment, whatever that may have been.

Because of not having a permanent job yet, 'k?


Or "post-natal" depression, common after achieving degrees and such?

I would say I wish, but I don't wish broken hearts on people. My point is that I don't think I have broken many hearts.

As to the depression - I think it's a combination of things as it always is for me. I don't know who I'm living with in September. I don't even know if I'll be living in this apartment. I don't have a job, so I don't know where I'll be working and whether I need to move. I am incredibly broke. My cat is a disregulated diabetic. My job stresses me out emotionally. I don't have anyone to talk to. I'm single and I'm turning 40. Pick whatever combo you'd like.

I think schools are just starting to look. I've had one interview and was turned down. I have applications in at several other districts besides the one I work in. I'm considering other districts which would mean a move for me this summer.

Well, I think everything will work out for the best, ultimately. I believe you have worked hard enough and certainly deserve it.
