I had a FANTASTIC time at SerpentStone Mabon Gathering. This is the first Gathering I’ve attended since ending my dependence of psychiatric drugs, and everyone went out of their way to say how much better I looked than they had ever seen me before, and how much happier. I only had one problem all weekend, a bout of sheer physical exhaustion just before Main Ritual. Someone helped me to my tent, and I slept for a couple hours and got back up again. Other festivals, Rhiannon or somebody had to take care of me over some psych problem or other. I FEEL GREAT!!!!! I think the physical exhaustion was caused by a combination of lack of sleep Friday night (was excited about being back) and that the site was at a higher altitude than I am accustomed to — I have run all over Dragon Hills in the past, but that is about 2,000 feet LOWER than Asheville.
I have some wonderful news to post, but don’t want to jinx anything… in two weeks y’all will know.
Hugs,
Me
hhehe..hmm, u blif in jinxes huh. 🙂
Yeah, it’s great to be DEALING with psych problems for a change, rather than being addicted to a drug too that keeps you from feeling anything most of the time until something breaks through.I know how much better I am, physically and mentally since being off of the psych drugs, about 13 months now for me, and instead just taking CARE of myself.Gotta learn to pace yourself as not to allow yourself to become SO physically exhausted.
glad you had a great time…
