Daisy ~ I guess the fact that I have been under the weather for the better part of the last few weeks may well be the trigger of all this episode. I honestly can't think of anything else! I do think I'm feeling a bit better so I hope I'm on the way "up".
Thank you for taking the time to answer.

Typical ones include: anniversaries of things -- death of a loved one, birthdays even the anniversary of another bout of depression. Sometimes music is a trigger for me, an old song brings up stuff (The Night Chicago Died is one for such a weird reason)or TV talk shows.
