> I'm feeling much better now....the mood has passed...
now that I'm out of the pit and have a little more
perspective I've come to a place where I'm thinking:I have what it takes to be a good partner in a long
term relationship--I just have to be sure (because
of my depression) to make taking care of myself
my number one priority. I have to be careful and
guard against overextending myself....I also have
to give up the notion of being the Perfect Girlfriend,
or the Perfect Person...Damn I hate perfectionism...it is a DEMON!
Demon Be Gone! Can I get an Amen?It was really comforting to read everyone's responses
and to not feel alone on this issue.
