Ok Girlfriend, you gotta snap out of this!! If you would have told me you tore the woman's head off, I'd feel much better  Honestly, people like that really tee me off and I get that line a lot as well. My usual comeback is "well, yeah, my body is just eating itself from the inside out but at least I'll look good in my coffin!" That usually shuts'em pretty quick! 
You know I understand the daily pain, the feeling of self worthlessness, the hiding the pills, the shame and all the other things we do to try and pretend we are normal-and it does wear us down and sometimes down some more but we always manage to get through each day, somehow.
Not to play shrink or anything but are you having a harder time coping right now because you just got back from your vacation? I know I always get more depressed after returning from even a short weekend away. I could never figure out way, you would think I'd be happy and relaxed and whatnot but I find I feel "let down" in some way-maybe now that your back to "real life" it just seems to overwhelming?
Anyway sweetie, my boss isn't in today so if you want to chat, give me a call!!
