A slight update

[Milianna]

So...

A lot has happened since I have last been here.

I have been through *a lot*.

September was my wakeup call. I had an abnormal heart rhythm caused by low potassium. I suppose it's your guess of why I had been like that. I had been experiencing severe chest pain for several days and by the time I dragged myself to urgent care, they sent me to hospital via ambulance. Even though the rhythm had adjusted itself by the time I got to the ER, it still scared me enough to get myself some help.

I now have medical management. Starting the process of finding a therapist for my issues and using the university counseling services as a bridge. I had my initial appointment with a nurse practitioner to start the process of finding meds to help control my depression and anxiety. I have been forming relationships and connections with people that I never thought imaginable.

Yes, I do struggle. But am I nearly as hopeless as I used to be? No.

I still have a long way to go... but I am far from the traumatized and hopeless shell that I was last year.

I'm sorry you had a heart episode but I'm glad you're on a better track. Potassium levels can be tricky. My wife had to watch her potassium levels as she was diabetic.

That’s great to hear. It’s wonderful that you have been able to finally get to a place where you are starting to feel better. I wish you the best of luck with your recovery.

Hi hi.

I remember you often gave me a lot of advice and support in those dark times. Thank you for all of that.

I probably was frustrating in much of my posts, but I guess that I felt some comfort knowing I was being heard

Sometimes I had to learn the hard way. I will admit that sometimes I'm a bit forgetful and lax in my efforts to manage my condition but I am still fighting and working towards better days.

Thank you for all your support in my darkest hours

I understand how hard it is to see past the darkness in those moments. It’s fine. I’m glad I was able to help you feel less alone.
