Bio
I’m 40, a new dad, a stay-at-home dad, a loving husband, a runner, a writer, a lover of movies and music and sports, and a sufferer of depression. These are all part of my identity, some more so than others, some more recent than others. I’ve dealt with depression my whole life, and never in the most functional way. Having a child forced me to deal with this issue, for fear of not wanting him to end up like me. I’d tried for me, I’d tried for Serena, the third time was for our unborn child. Hopefully it would be a charm. I stuck it out, I tried everything the pros suggested, including group therapy and medication. It all helped get the wheels in motion, and the meds actually helped me relax more, not worry so much. Having had some clarity for some time now, I feel optimistic about the future. That things will work out even if all that stuff that I worry about doesn’t get solved. That feeling’s rather foreign to me, and I'm still getting used to it.
