I will rest for a while and then take it from there. If mental illness has taught me one thing is that you can't make any long term plans.

I have never thought of myself as an artist so what you're saying gives me something to think about. I'm not quite sure if I want to believe that I would need a therapist who understands artists. But then again, I don't consider myself an artist. So back to square one. ;)

And you are absolutely right, depression will remain an inseparable part of me and it's about time that I embrace this as a fact.
