What was your “turning point?”
I have a question for you guys…
I know that usually I carry on at great (and hopefully entertaining lengths) and the topic is generally, well “moi”
But today’s post is going to be a bit different… Right below is this awesome blank spot where you can leave comments on a post, this post. I’d like to hear from you folks out there and the question is:
What was your “turning point?”
What was it that made you move toward a healthier you? What “flipped the switch” for you?
The floor is now yours:

I Wish I Could Stop
I’m sharing this post because, well, it hits very close to home for me.
I’ve been following David’s blog for a while now and I’ve admired how he’s managed to succeed and do what I’m trying to do. I never new until this post that he too suffers from bouts of depression.
Right now, I’m in the midst of one of those bouts myself. Think “Le Brea Tar Pits” and you kinda get the idea about where I’m at right now.
When this appeared in my inbox today, I don’t know what made me click on it. There’s nothing in the title that would lead me to think that the article speaks to being depressed and the never ending battle of fighting for fitness and NOT being depressed… …but click on it I did.
I’m so glad I did. It is nice to know I’m not alone. And that success is possible. And that even when you’ve “made it” that you’ll always have to “keep” making it.
Bravo David! And thank you. I’m not in the fight alone. Knowing that means a lot. Especially now.
And if Uhmmm… someone could maybe throw me a rope… the tar is kinda up to my nose and if you’d tell me how to get this tar out of my clothes, I’d appreciate it.
Isn’t depression the best? I was first diagnosed with major depressive disorder after a scary hospitalization when I was a teenager, and depression has been a visitor that I suspect will come a-knockin’ every so often for the rest of my life.
Depression has been a recent house guest. I’m getting over a funk that I’ve been in for the past couple weeks. It might be some post-holiday blues, perhaps, and it could be related to the bruised or cracked rib that I’ve been healing from. Whatever the cause, it held on to me for a good solid two weeks, and it planted a thought in my head that got stuck there. I kept on thinking these five words over and over again, like a song you can’t shake:

If you did open this instead of deleting it…
TEST Post #2 — last one I promisezes!
Everybody all together… look at the kitty in a cast…
“Awwwwwwwwwww”
I am trouble shooting something and the only way to do that is to actually do a “new post” and send it out to everyone.
Sorry about that! This is the first of two “test posts” that I need to do — kind of a before and after thing. I’m sending this one out with my “current” settings”
And then I’ll switch to the “test” settings and see if the problem got fixed….
Thanks for understanding!
See ya on the dance floor!
There is some gobbledy gook stuff after this “more” tag… just to fill up the space for the purpose of the test
