Hi dierdre,
Thank you for responding to my post. I think drawing or coloring is a great suggestion. I haven't really let myself explore that too much although I'd like to.
I used to play the guitar--one of the signs of depression for me is that it stays in the closet. I don't understand what that is or why there is so much conflict around pursuing something that would bring me joy. Is it that I have to be perfect at it? Is it that my family somehow destroyed it for me (they had a knack for that)? Either way, you remind me of something that is very nurturing to my spirit that I've been denying.
And we all seem to agree that ice cream wouldn't hurt a bit either.
I really do wish we all lived nearer and could get together and play...
Thanks again.
