It seems the depression dip of the year has passed; it usually happens within the period from July to September. In October I usually go on an upswing and catapult into dysphoria during the Holiday season.
This year's depression has been the happiest in the past few years. I sank into a moderate depression for one day only as far as I recall - much, much better than staying in it for weeks as have before. I believe the blues were curbed a bit by my having to shuttle to and fro regarding important family matters; it was a bit stressful but it kept my attention away from myself.
Also I commend myself for the wise move of getting out of RavenCorp; it's a huge factor.
Lately I haven't blogged as much - which ordinarily occurs when I'm feeling happier. As usual, I have a rush of creativity. These days' creativity is channeled into making decors for a Tim Burton Un-Birthday Party I'm organizing with my sister and a few of her friends (it's a wholesome alternative to Halloween). I've already made a bead-garland to hang from the lighting fixtures, and a few fake abstract paintings. Currently I'm working on a Nightmare-Before-Christmas tree (it's going to be oh so cute!) and little rag animals to hang on it.
