Default Have I lost it?

OK, so I've basically been hit with a bunch of shit recently. My dad's currently in jail for possession of a pot pipe, my best friends are moving within the next two months, my mom's drinking again, my neighbors have been horrible, school's starting up again, and I've been having migraines almost every day for a month. Despite all of this, I feel great. I don't feel depressed at all. I feel like I could take on a seven nation army right now. Have I lost my mind? Shouldn't I be fatally depressed right now?

I dunno why, but I've been feeling fantastic. I'm in love with life right now and I'm absolutely ecstatic that Proposition 8 was overturned. Am I sane or do I need to take crazy pills?

Ever read the book Catch 22?

From what you wrote it sounds like you are pretty good at dealing with stress.

If you're not collapsing into a ball of stress and depression, then I say run with it!

Yes, you are completely mad, off the rocker, and insane...

Just kidding, you're just a happy person. Stress doesn't effect you. Be happy.
