How to get back my joy?
I seem to have lost my joy. I have been trying to keep busy, be around people, do things that I normally enjoy, but I can't seem to shake it. Even things that I loved to do just a few weeks ago, I have no joy in them anymore. I am not sleeping well, have no appetite, and just feel overwhelmed.
There are several factors that have contributed to this. My husband is undergoing chemo for cancer, I just recently lost my dearest friend and confidant, and the first anniversary of my precious father's death is coming up.
What do you all do to kick a case of the blues and get your joy for life back?

it is no wonder that joy slips past you, when you find security in the loss of others near you........it seems that you emotionally miss those that make you feel strong, and missing them is actually making you weak........it is time to find the joy in being the person that they once were and provide the "strength" for others that need you.......after all their strenght is what gave you joy..use it ...don't lose it.....good luck in all you do
