25, 32 They were mini-ones! Practice for the big doozie that hit a couple of years ago... I just hope that one wasn't practice for something around the corner!

But I have to ask, what would they find in your blood that causes one to be miserable?
Thyroid hormones.

Come help me unpack!

I'm thinking of volunteering for the local 'Habitat for Humanity' - though I need to research them a bit more and getting back involved with a couple of environment orgs I use to volunteer with before I left.

What turns your crank?

Don't think it hasn't crossed my mind! Nice bit of sea air and some good company!

I think I'm dragged in lots of different directions and can't get on with things due to waiting to see what happens with my various projects.

no , there is no age for depression Beebop. Are you feeling helpless or /and hopeless? have you noticed changes in weight? either loss or gain? have your sleeping habits changed? are you finding yourself crying a lot? go and see your MD and tell him how you are feeling. You dont have to suffer . There are many ways that you can be helped. Antidepressants typically take 1 month to kick into your system so dont wait for too long.

i think YOONG would know more than me. She specializes in mental health nursing if i remember correctly.

Hope i was of some help.
