huni, just a thought, when i am feeling depressed, i generally push people away, sometimes you think this will help but it means you end up getting swallowed up in your negative feelings even more...over the last few weeks i have found the best medicine to any negative feelings is to talk to someone, find someone you are comfortable with and have a good old whinge....also the best medicine is laughter, i know it sounds like a cliche, but honestly it does help...a friend of mine is fantastic and gauging my mood and knows when i am feeling down and he always makes me laugh.... i generally come away thinking life isn't as bad as i first thought
<light hearted response> if you can't sleep get hold of a philosophy book, it is guarenteed to make you fall asleep in five minutes..... i used to read it to my nephew and low and behold he would always fall asleep
<end light heartedness>
