  • July 20 – Meeting a very good friend

    Today a very dear friend of mine came to visit us. I have known her since we were kids. But because she lives in Europe we rarely see each other. Besides she’s married and has kids and so do I, but that doesn’t stop us for being very happy to see each other. It’s kind…

  • June 28 – Cosmetic appointment

    After my impulse buy of last week, I came back to the store to get my scheduled facial. I have never taken care of my skin, let alone my face, so when the cosmetician asked me what do I apply on my face I was a bit ashamed to say just water. The cosmetician lead…

  • June 26 – Meetup discussion

    I am really starting to push myself out of my comfort zone. Never have I ever been in so many different social events where I don’t know anyone. Tonight there’s a meetup at a Cafe with the topic : Love. I thought that it was a really appropriate topic regarding what I am going through…

  • June 24 – Discussion with family

    Today we had a BBQ with the family. As the evening went on, one of my aunt came and sat down with me. She’s very close with my wife. I know my wife and her often talk about everything and anything as they get along very well. I guess my depression is showing as she…

  • June 15 – Trying to change

    I’m trying to change and I have been watching some YouTube videos. I have found this one to be particularly interesting. It’s a TedTalk. Well outspoken lady, I thought I’d share.

  • June 13 – Going out

    Today, my wife and kids were invited by her colleague to her new place. After doing some work at my parents house, I just left and went out by myself. I started wandering around only to end up downtown at a concert. Technically, I registered to a local Meetup and they had a group that…

  • June 12 – Staying for the kids or divorcing

    We had a big talk this morning. I must say that for now, we’re still talking like adults. But things can escalate very quickly. If I ever lose it then it’s over. I’m doing my best, but it is hard, really hard. So basically we came to the same conclusion. We don’t want to break…

  • June 10 – Just another draining day

    I have ups and downs. I guess it also goes with the weather. For now the weather hasn’t been very good and since it’s cold and cloudy it does impact my feelings. Besides I’m working from home so there’s even less of a social aspect that could cheer me up a bit. It’s ironic thought,…

  • June 9 – Investor meet

    I’m trying to get my life back. For as long as I can remember, my kids have always been my priority. And they will remain my priority. Furthermore, as I am taking care of them most of the time, I have neglected my social life. I am not socially inclined to start with, so that…

  • June 6 – Time to change

    I am still a mess. I can’t really continue like this. Hence I have been looking around at different resources to help me get back on track. I am lucky enough to have such a program at work that will cover a big portion of the expenses for a psychologist. Besides this, as I have…
