My new reality?

Four days ago, I laughed. It was short and sweet, barely more than a chuckle, but a nice gutteral sound all the same.

Then yesterday, I laughed, like, 3 times! I felt almost giddy.

Today, I do not feel like laughing. Today kinda sucks. I have a migraine and I'm deeply fatigued and the malaise of last summer is coming rushing back all over again.

David Richo defines mental health, in part, as being able to go with the flow of life, the good and the bad, and not feeling threatened by it. How do we get this kind of mental health? We practice, but usually we have to do so with the help of a therapist.

Yesterday I felt spontaneous and confident. Today, I just feel tired.
