I had a horrid year last year with multiple bereavements ended up on antidepressants and counselling for a "trauma event"

I'm 4 months into medication and 3/4s of my way through my counselling

I am working again but quite part time, I have stopped (currently) having a nice attacks

& this evening I was bored and didn't know what to do with myself so started baking (which I havent done for months)

And DH said he thinks i must be heading in the right direction as I always bake when I am working out my problems......mind you DH is often in favour of baking

I know it will still take time but I can see the future me coping better

Good news! How lovely....I do crafts when I'm working out my problems so I relate to that. Whenever I have a bit of a worry or crisis, I suddenly find myself surrounded with glitter and papier mache! Baking is like that too....it's very healthy to get engrossed in a productive craft Katy.
