I suppose when you get to a certain age, its very easy to get into the mindset \u00a0that everything was really much better before and things were more reasonable. \u00a0Except of course that analysis tends to lead us to quite the opposite conclusion though our romantic notions of a soft focus past are comforting. \u00a0its human nature to remember the good bits and the other stuff tends to fade away. And often there are very good things to hold on to. What happens when we get the thing we wished for and our dreams become mundane? When there is a limit on how faster,better shinier we can be.<\/p>\n

Well I think it’s hitting \u00a0that limit now for me personally. \u00a0My mood swings are mostly a thing of the past as are my deep depressions, but there is a lack of colour in everything or has been for the last few months. \u00a0Is it simply time for a change and if so of what nature? \u00a0Is it part of the aging process where novelty is hard to come by. \u00a0For some of us with mental health issues there can be an urge to take part in risky behaviour to feel a little bit more alive, to lift the blanket of stultifying merk that I find myself trying to move through.<\/p>\n
