One, music. I heard a live version of "Something Fine" today on XM's The Loft. Not a huge Jackson Browne fan but was transported nonetheless. Two, Vitamin D in the form of sunshine. Spring in New England is sweet for those without allergies. Is there a playground nearby where you can let the kids run while you sit peacefully on a bench in the sun? And three, a nice long walk. Preferrably near water of some kind. Tell your husband you need an hour of me this weekend. Set the iPod to Bruce and get outside. I promise you'll feel better.

I agree that lack of sleep is a major mind f**k although it sounds like you want to pull the covers over your head and be still for a while. <BR/><BR/>Maybe try to upend your entire routine and see if that helps? I find that changing the way I do everything can sometimes shake me out of my moods. <BR/><BR/>Is your doctor a big help? If you think this is beyond your control, please talk to someone.
