As a photographer who enjoys your work - and saw a lot of it on the walls today in Alpine Physical Therapy - and as a mostly retired psychologist, I really admire your candor and ability to articulate about your struggles with depression. Correspondingly, you do a great job explaining how "behavioral activation" or engagement is so helpful. I love your note about feeling the chemical changes in your brain. My heart is with you Brian. Oh - and as an aging trail runner, i love seeing those trails up the side of Sentinel, University Peaks, etc.
I really admire and appreciate your candor. Many people can absolutely relate including me. One foot in front of the other until the planets realign. ❤
Thanks so much for your kind words, Lori. Absolutely. I assume most folks have experienced some form of this or worse. It's a shred human experience, especially lately.
When I retired in June of 2017, I did virtually nothing until I took your Winterscape Photography class. You renewed my passion for photography and for that, I will be eternally grateful. Thank you for being so open with your struggle, and I applaud your victory in this latest bout. Beautiful video of your hike. Is that your own music? It reminds me of whale song.
Thanks so much, Pat. I am so happy to hear about you reconnecting with photography. We are all here to help each other, I suppose. I've always appreciated our chats. Not my music in this one, just a licensed song. I hope to start recording in the next week or so!
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. 👍24
Wildflower Diaries aren't filled solely with wildflowers. How could we appreciate the beauty of a wildflower if it's all we ever saw or heard?
Thanks so much for your support and kind words.
