Hibernation

Posted on 9 February 2012

I wish I could hibernate.

Literally.

Avoid everyone and everything and sleep for 6 months.

I’m in that kind of mood and can’t deal with much more stress. And so, I just want to avoid.

Except for some reason, they refer to that as clinical depression. Sigh.

Until next time,

Cheers!!!

    I can totally understand. And a finger to those who call it clinical depression. Take your time to get out of this mood. Seriously.

      Ah Spiffy…scarily though I think it’s almost like depression. Unless I can prevent it. It sounds like some others too are going through a hard time this year…you included?

    Take care PB! and regardless of what anyone says , hibernation is sometimes good for you.
    I’m just coming out of an hibernation of over 6 months. And even now I’m meeting only those whom I really want to meet. Feeling good.
    This too shall pass

      Thanks Gangu! Unfortunately, the downside of hibernation is no work which is equal to no money…and that can’t happen. Great that you could do it…would love to do it too!

    So when a psychiatrist has clinical depression does he/she go to another psychiatrist?? 😀 or do they self cure?

      Yep you can go and see someone else or you can actually try to implement the strategies you already know. Currently I’ll admit I’m not using any of the strategies I know!!
