Please do take care, Zen!

Ann, that's a ferret.
Zen, you are ill. Building on what WS said -- mental illness is an illness, and it needs to be taken care of. Acknowledging that there's a problem, and that you need help, can be the hardest steps to take.
I've found support groups to be helpful. The DBSA (Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance) and NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness) would be worthwhile places to start.
And, good luck in your treatment!

Because books.
I'm really proud of you, Zen. It's hard to ask for help, and sometimes it's even harder to admit you need it. I hope the depression starts to lift soon.

Our wings are not tired.
But I've been adulting for quite enough years I shouldn't have to prove I'm an adult anymore.
Yes you are, and no you don't have to prove anything. It is good to read that you are taking the steps necessary to feel better. I hope you find the help you need quickly. Grateful that your workplace values you, but not surprised, because we value you too!

Zen, I'm glad you'll have some space to get to a better place.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Zen, I am so proud of you.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Dear Self
Please try to remember that you probably slept so badly last night because you had a cup of caffeinated coffee yesterday morning. Do not have another cup today. I know it's tempting. Don't do it. Stick to the placebo.
Love
Me

Completely unrelated to anything outside of my little world - how did we manage to come up a case short on an item we just received that is all going out on my customer's orders? How? The quantity received was verified, right? That was last week. Gah!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Crap, I didn't watch it yet!
