Friday Favourites:
The One About Depression
I had a bit of a down week this week, well certainly at the start of it. So I decided to take matters into my own hands and I double my post-natal depression medication. It has been a wonderful decision and I regret nothing. PS if you have a favourite blog, please share it with us below by clicking on the “ADD YOUR LINK” button. PPS I will be going live tonight at 8pm if you’re keen to come and chat!

1. Medication
I fucking love what medication does for me. It brings me back to my normal self – it doesn’t make me ridiculously happy. Nor does it make me someone I’m not. The medication I take (Citalopram) makes me feel normal. I still get angry. I still cry. I still function as a person – it’s just not as extreme as it was. I get angry about regular stuff – not about ridiculously silly things.

2. Gin
I’m not even sugar coating it this week – Gin (yes the alcohol) has been welcomed into the house like an old friend. IDGAF what that says about me – thank you Gin for being my friend, alongside my meds. FAR OUT that’s terrible Maria … HAHA

3. Kmart
My third friend this week was Kmart. After I had a bit of a breakdown over the amount of clutter in our house, I went to Kmart and bought a few cheap storage solutions and then set to tidying the house. Thank you Kmart for being affordable.

4. You
After I admitted to needing to up my PND pills, I was inundated with messages of support and it truly meant the world to me. You guys get me through each and every single week and for that I am grateful, and you will forever be my favourites.
