Depression in the dark

 Good morninng or whatever time it is when you read this!

I hope you're doing well. I have been feeling a lot better than I usually feel in November. I think that my depression hasn't been bothering me for a while now. I am feeling a lot better, especially mentally. My right leg has a neurological damage and my leg is often very painful and I have no pain meds for it, because the pain is in the NERVE, no regular pain medicine can help and I have heard you get very loopy of the nerve pain kind of meds lol. I do NOT want to be loopy! Especially not from a medicine! 

I have been feeling a lot more stable and even in my emotional life.

I have been at home a lot. My friend Johanna helped me a lot many times when I needed to get around. I use a wheelchair outside my home. Because if I get a pain attack in my leg, I really can't walk and/or stand. Yesterday I had a lot of pain because on Sunday I needed to use my walker a bit at church. The pain came a little late, but it did come...

There is a website in Finland for people struggling with mental health problems:

https://tukinet.net/

There you can find resources in Finnish to get help from volunteers and people with experience.

I have been using on off for a lot of years. Whenever I have had bad anxiety and a crisis in my life, I have a support person that I can message and it helps with my situation always. It is really good. I recommend it really a lot.

Today I am going out to eat for lunch with some "old" friends. They are from the USA.

I have realized that I have a lot of friends in the USA. LOL

Oopsie! HAHA!

Today I will try to clean my home a bit and plan my day, read, write, journal and watch YouTube.

More later!

My trip to the USA 2024.. The adventure starts!

 Good morning everybody! Greetings from Pleasant Grove, Utah. I arrived on Tuesday the 13th of August to the SLC international airport, a little before 1 pm (the flight was early...). I traveled together with the returning missionaries. It was so nice!  I was really tired but I haven't been so tired that I thought I would be. My medicine helps me get my sleep patterns stable and regular. I have been walking a lot and it hurts in the evenings when I have spent a long time walking around. But it's ok. I think I have lost a little more weight, it's so much easier to get around! What a big blessing. A few months I was still in a wheelchair when I went outside! WOW. It is a miracle! :) I took a little break in writing. Hope you don't mind hahhah!  This country is very interesting! :) stores and such have so different "infrastructure", I don't know if that's the right word... And a town or city is not separate or like far from each other. You just kinda swoo...

the Temple again :)

Good morning from Pleasant Grove, Utah, USA! Yesterday I visited my fourth Temple during my trip here in Utah. Now I have visited FOUR Temples here in Utah.  Tomorrow I am going to the Orem, Utah Temple. Oh, the one I went to yesterday with my friend, is the Provo center Temple. It looks stunning in the evening... The lights around it and the beauty of the garden there, and of course the Temple it self. I really love going to the Temple. Now I understand why so many Temples are being announced all the time in Utah! Because people go there so often here! It is always booked full on any given day... I need to book my seat very early. It is amazing! My mom is calling me soon, better write quick! :D  After the Temple me and my friend walked around the Temple grounds, almost ordered Domino's to a random ledge/edge we found to sit on, but were afraid we were "loitering"... So when the police car arrive, we were already on our way from the place we found. We went to the pizza pl...

Last weekend. Last Saturday. In Utah.

 Good morning dear people!  I had to delete that last post, I am sure I didn't quite think it through and I most certainly had almost all filters off hahhha. At least most of them and that is just plain stupid. I am sometimes tired when I write and then the TRUTH (?) comes out, or parts of it... My opinions are very strong most of the time and I don't need to alienate my readers further and/or make them think I am completely cuckoo. I am a little cuckoo, but honestly, there are far more people in the world who are cuckoo to the same degree, or maybe even more cuckoo than me... I just have a lot to say!  Being bullied in school and at church and by people who have once called me their friend, that is not easy. In school I was a teeny tiny bit chubby, like maybe 5 kilos too heavy or something, so I was called fatso. EVERY DAY for 10 years I was bullied in school. Then my mini mission came and I couldn't sleep or rest for two weeks, maybe 4 hours a night. Try to survive THAT...
