上週末我去朋友家赴聖誕晚宴。當然，屋子裏少不了有聖誕歌曲作為背景音樂。我聽到了那熟悉的歌詞：“耶誕節了，你做了些什麼？又走過一年，迎來新年的起點…”突然間我對自己感到很失望。
的確，這一年我都做了些什麼呢？
腦子突然被那些還沒做的事情塞得動彈不得：我的身體還沒有完全恢復，我沒有做運動，我的頭疼也還沒好，
電子書還沒寫完，還沒有更新Bearapy博客，還有那麼多篇的博客稿沒寫完…我沒有，我沒有，我沒有…我什麼都沒做！！！
我開始對自己念叨。
朋友問我怎麼了。我對她講了我的想法。她的眼睛都要瞪出來了，朝我挪近一步，一字一句地盯著我的臉說：“你說你什麼都沒做是什麼意思？你把婚結了！”
啊，糟糕。
於是我開始在腦子裏列下完成事項的清單：我照看自己的博客並為其他幾位朋友的博客寫了文章，我幾乎每天都打太極，我開始練習書法和做冥想，我有了幾只新的熊熊，我烘烤點心，下廚房做飯…
但今年我最重要的成就是：我還活著。
所以，對所有還在抑鬱、焦慮、狂躁及其它不管何種病症中掙扎的人們，向你們這些勇敢的鬥士們致敬！
這是最重要的。僅此而已。你還活著。你還在前進。
新年快樂。明天會更好的。

告訴別人你抑鬱了，你會收到無數的回應和見解。 告訴別人你懷孕了，不請自來的各種建議就會排山倒海一樣呼嘯而來——…
中斷了六周博客更新後，我回來了。我不知道過去的6周都去哪兒了。我沒有精力，非常疲倦。我睡不好，沒有動力做事情。…
