Hello again.

     I know I haven't posted in a long while and I'm sorry for that.  I have been going through some stuff and had to take some time to work on me.  I have been dealing with some depression but have been put on some medication that seems to be helping a little bit.  I have also been seeing a therapist.  I can't really go into detail right now but to let you know in the end and in the best interest for my health.  I had to leave my job that I loved because of the stress and the types of things I was dealing there on a daily basis.  

    For those of you that don't know I was a 911 call taker and dispatcher for 7 years at my local law enforcement agency.  A personal thing happened to me that certain calls were triggering my depression and maybe PTSD type thing ( I have not been diagnosed but have been told by the EAP rep that it sounded like it).  I had to step away to that I could focus on getting better and hope to someday in the future go back to this job.  I have taken a less stressful job but am having some struggles with going from a high stress job to a low stress one.  My new coworkers are understanding and are helping me though.

    I wanted to start using this blog as a diary to document how I'm doing and the struggles I am facing and hoping to find people having or had similar situations that I have.  To share those experiences to help other people.  I am hoping that this can help me with getting better and becoming the person that I once was and who I know I am again.
