Where is Diana? Is she in India?

I am still alive! I am doing pretty well, very well, volunteering with the kids at the childrens home has gotten me over the whole pressure to get married thing (no biological rush-I have kids now) and given me a sense of purpose/desire formore in my life. I have been impressively social, I still am on facebook way too much, but one step at a time.

I don't know what I want to do with the blog now, I have really gotten out of the habit of writing, and fortunately been sharing
More of my anxieties with my friends, which is really healthy.

I began Diana Crabtree when I began therapy, while suicidally depressed. I went for two years, consistantly took my medication and made changes in my life, slowly but surely, and the depression has been in remission for ages. I have a LOT to work on with myself, lots of mess, as fat as ever, but I am no longer my own enemy, so I can solve my problems, or manage them, without putting myself through hell.

I am so grateful for the way Diana Crabtree helped me come out of my shell, and gave me a place to organize and let out my thoughts. I suggest anyone else suffering create a similar blog, just remember to hide your identity (it's a dangerous world out there) and remember, vulnerable people might be reading it, so don't get too dark or give advice that can trigger someone else, stay positive.

Thanks for reading, who knows, I may start writing again one day :)
