I sort of knew I was more depressed recently, but only now has it occurred to me that my activities of the past two days, which have largely involved watching reality TV from my couch, might be a sign of that. Not the TV watching part, but the fact that I'm ignoring actual TV to watch Animal Cops and Hoarders and Pitbulls and Parolees.
Do you see any goats around? No, because I sacrificed them.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
That is definitely true for me. Not necessarily reality, but things that take no focus.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
omnis! Good to see your font! Glad you got out of the house and saw a friend. Sorry about the dropping energy levels.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Hi omnis! Sending you much love. Good to see your pixels.
Dana, glad you've recognized what's going on. Are you currently seeing a therapist and/or on meds?
Yay for the Beautiful Thing love. "Right! If you don't peel no taters you don't get no tea!"

Yeah, I'm on meds. I don't want to try and adjust them right now, because I feel like I can tell that the depression has an external cause, if that makes any sense. And if the cause is removed, I think I'd be okay.
Anyway, I'll get through the MRI and see what the result of that is.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Good luck with the MRI, Dana. And resolving the external source of depression.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
And sometimes you just need some downtime to cope via bad TV.
(I've never seen Animal Cops, and so all I can picture is a live-action Zootopia.)

Sadly not live-action Zootopia. The show's probably not for everyone, since it shows animals in various kinds of distress, but they're almost always rescued and healed, and sometimes people are put in jail, so it's kind of cathartic.

Herding cats for fun
I once watched Pit Bulls and Parolees all night because it made me feel better about where I was...
