So I have not been on the site for while.
And there is a reason for that.
I had a very bad depressive episode at the end of last year, which pretty much turned my world upside down. It was related to a manager complete destroying my sense of self-worth at the job where I work.
But the good news is I am now in a much better emotional space and have been making a good amount of recovery. I have got a new supportive manager and work is so much better. I was surprised how much help CBT was for changing my negative. I still not one hundred percent well and suspect that I never will be but accepting that has been great for helping with my mental health. I will say this the NHS was fantastic in helping me with my lowest low. Also one of my senior managers was great at giving me support
One of the downside is I have not been feeling like writing. So I am saving my energy for the next NANOWRIMO which I should be in a better place to do. I guess we will see.
On other news I have started a gaming based podcast with my wife and friend Elliot. It is over on The Last Hype Train dot Com. It’s been fun so far. Only one episode but its a start. The main reason is it helping me be sociable without that direct contact so it helps fight my social anxiety.
Well hopefully it will not be as long till my next post.
