| Does Anyone Else Get Depressed On Or Around Their Birthday? Posted: 2/1/2006 6:39:27 PM | Ha - I usually forget when my birthday is, let alone be bothered by it! But I can see that it could be a bit of a drag, especially if you don't have plenty of friends and family around to celebrate with. So yeah, probably is normal.
PS. Happy birthday  | |

You should think of something to do that you're going to really look forward to, and get out and do it. It'll turn around the way you look at birthdays, and you won't be able to wait for the next one! Go skydiving or visit mexico... whatever takes your fancy. It's party time!!!  | |

| Does Anyone Else Get Depressed On Or Around Their Birthday? Posted: 2/1/2006 7:18:13 PM | I was taking time off during my b-day in my previous job, but I can't do that right now.
I guess I feel like I should be doing something, but I don't know what to do.
Maybe it's because I don't feel like many people care.
I think I started to not like my b-day around the time my grandpap died. His b-day was the day before mine. After he died, it didn't feel as special anymore.
I don't want to tell anyone I work with that it's my b-day because I'll end up getting dragged to a strip joint. I try to stay outta those places.
And of course I'm getting older. I'll be 32.. Yay. Still don't feel like I'm going anywhere. | |

I'll be 44 at the end of the month so I'm planing to head to Reno, Nevada and hang out there for a few days. After all, a birthday is your day, do whatever makes YOU happy.

| Does Anyone Else Get Depressed On Or Around Their Birthday? Posted: 2/2/2006 6:44:54 AM | Yeah, I've had birthdays that have really depressed me.......turning 31, that was not good.
But since I now just had my 33rd BD on Monday - no biggie - just a number. And most people seem pretty suprized when I tell them how old I am (they always think I am WAY younger), so I'd like to take this opportunity to thank the family genes
I think the best thing to do is not to dwell on it and go out and have a really good time to celebrate (that's my plan this Saturday! ) So for those of you living in TO and heading to Shmooze this Saturday - I'll be the crazy girl on the dance floor making a fool of herself!

| Does Anyone Else Get Depressed On Or Around Their Birthday? Posted: 2/4/2006 11:58:06 AM | Yeah, people are usually surprised that I'm 31. I used to hate looking young for my age. When I was 18, I looked like was 13. :) I didn't like to shave because having facial hair made me look older.
Now I embrace my boyish looks. | |

| Does Anyone Else Get Depressed On Or Around Their Birthday? Posted: 9/25/2006 5:35:09 PM | That reminds me ~ mine is on Oct 5....... big 41 and so not a big deal. I agree wih whoever said age ain't nothing but a number. Far more important things to worry about than some arbitrary day when I squirmed out | |

| Does Anyone Else Get Depressed On Or Around Their Birthday? Posted: 9/25/2006 9:02:32 PM | No, I do not. I am happy to be alive!! I have gone to funerals for people that I grew up with, therefore I am grateful for each day that the Good Lord sees fit to give me!! I am already planning my 60th birthday(12/26/07). Hawaii here I come!!!  | |

| Does Anyone Else Get Depressed On Or Around Their Birthday? Posted: 9/25/2006 9:31:43 PM | | I had mine last Tuesday. It was my first birthday single in 12 years and it ended up being weirder than I thought it would be. I spent it with great friends and definitely felt the lovin' going on, but it was still such a weird day. | |

| Does Anyone Else Get Depressed On Or Around Their Birthday? Posted: 9/26/2006 4:29:43 AM | Ya sometimes....because I start reflecting and it's like great....another year. What have I accomplished that is so great? I start panicking because it makes me that much closer to 30 and I realize that everyone around me is popping out babies like crazy and on second and third marriages and I'm here just working and paying the bills, seemingly with not a care in the world........but alas that is not true.
My birthday just passed by last week and I worked, then the weekend I worked.....after anticipating for a couple weeks before I just forgot about it when it came around.
Now as a kid, heck no I relished it and reminded people...hey it's my birthday dont forget....of course I didn't go as far as some people I know and that was to make a list of things I wanted......that was just plain ghetto......lol | |
