When you've had a long period of....

[Bbbananas]

stress, anxiety, worry, illness, horrid time for whatever reason... how do you know when you've 'come out the other side?'
I know when I'm 'back to normal' because I start singing out loud again. The worst time of my life, a few years back, I knew I was getting back to normal when I sang, hummed or whatever, every day again. At my worst times I, even subconsciously, am without music... :-(

salla - for me it's when i start to believe my mantra of 'things will get better soon and they always sort themselves out in the end' x

when things don't seem nearly as bad as they did in the dead of night salla, morning always brings fresh hope x

I get my hair restyled. every time I come out of a long depression i do a bit of a transformation thing. Might revamp my wardrobe, update my makeup even try some new things that I wouldn't have the confidence to do when in the grey zone

Thank you vibra, what a nice thing to say :-)

What song should I sing today? So far it's been This Town Aint Big Enough For The Both Of Us (Sparks, circa mid-70's) and Burning Ring of Fire (Johnny Cash) - I need something more upbeat....

I like a bit of Bassey.
