Hopeless and empty...and reading

Some days are more difficult than others. Today is one of the much tougher days, where I really don't have much to say.

So, rather than spending the rest of my day analyzing my very negative thoughts, I'm going to try to read. (My current obsession is to read books written by others who have faced both depression and borderline personality head on, in a desperate effort at finding inspiration in the stories of others who have fought and won their battles.) Two recent additions to my library, which I found helpful in pulling me through days like this:

Beyond Blue, by Therese Borchard
The Buddha and the Borderline, by Kiera Van Gelder
