Trying to hold it all together for another day. Going through a thing. It'll be fine but need to just make it through the next couple of days I reckon.

I remain cautiously pessimistic at this point.

Look on the bright side. Maybe today will be better than tomorrow.

Alternatively, go the Stoic route and mentally prepare yourself for the worst possible outcome.

Then, anything less than that will feel like an upgrade.

As someone who's suffered severe depression for going on 20 years, I would suggest that sometimes the Klingon way is necessary. Outlive your enemies, live another day fueled by anger.
