Depression, Resilience and Changes in the Air
This period of my life has been really difficult to get through. Everything was on top of the world and then it slowly came crashing down. I rekindled a romantic relationship with an old boyfriend that I thought was going to be the end of my loneliness and depression. But it wasn't. Luis left for Long Beach which left me without my friend and roommate. I was almost kicked out of my Master's Program for financial aid issues. I also lost my aunt to cancer and my father lost his job of many years. It was a rough period for me.
Some how from all that depression and change came hope. I realized that life is so short. I have to enjoy it. Instead of being depressed that I'm getting older, I should celebrate that I am still alive and living in Los Angeles. I just got back from a trip to Vegas with friends and I am totally trying to live in the now. I'm even getting a new gay roommate which will be very exciting! Life is looking up again.
