Day 16 Hello there, welcome to day 16 of my blog. If you haven’t read the other days don’t worry, think of these blogs like the 7 Police Academy movies. It’s great if you’ve seen them all but don’t worry if you haven’t, they’re all good on their own in any order. Except for Police Academy 6…

Day 15 Hello there readers of my blog. In case you haven’t read any of my previous posts I’ll summarise. 15 days ago I started taking anti-depressants after feeling very depressed and getting signed off work for 54 days. I only started taking the pills towards the end of that 54 weeks period, which I regret,…

Day 14 Two weeks, I did it! This is the second longest time, excluding relationships, I’ve committed to anything. Also excluding a job and bad habits. But this is definitely a good habit. 14 consecutive days of Anti-depressants and blogging. I’m proud of myself. I also feel so much better, the pills have really helped…

Day 13 Hey readers, how the fuck are you today? I probably shouldn’t start a blog like that if I’m trying to get a new job, but then again I have a job now and I complain about that on here too… And my family don’t know I’m taking anti-depressants and felt suicidal before. So…

Day 11 Well what a productive day I’ve had today, I recorded 6 episodes of my podcast with 6 different guests and did I “gig”. I use quotation marks technically the gig didn’t happen. The audience wasn’t big enough for the night to go ahead. But I still did some stuff for the small amount…

Day 10 Today I’m feeling good. Yesterday after I finished my blog I felt re-energized and motivated to do more so I changed my entire WordPress lay-out, I finished my podcast idea and I’m in the process of booking guests for it too. I felt happier when I woke up today. I didn’t feel horrified…

Day 9 Nine days in. I don’t really know how I’m feeling today. I’m not sad I just feel a bit defeatist. I feel a bit “meh“. That’s why I’m writing this blog entry earlier than usual, so I can do something productive and inspire myself a bit. The good thing about this blog is…

Day 8 Today was my first day back at work after being signed off for 54 days with depression and stress. It was tough getting to sleep the night before, I kept thinking about how I hadn’t managed to escape the clutches of my current day job. It felt like I’d only just drifted off…

Day 6. Well last night was incredible. I had a fantastic time hosting my monthly comedy night and after a turbulent week of flu and feeling a spiral of emotions the gig really helped me focus in on one thing that always makes me happy. And that’s making other people laugh. I definitely think I…
