Dan -
I too am sorry that you are feeling down and having mood swings. And yes - it is normal under times of stress and moving to feel down and think about things alot or stressed out. Just know that you are not alone and there are alot of people that care about you. It happens to all of us. You will get through this period of time, you will get used to your new surrondings, get through this hormonal change in life and sometimes it may feel like you wouln't - but trust me - YOU WILL. It's great that you have shared yourself with all of us here and if you continue to feel this way - please talk to us!
Music is a great way to release - I love music so much because of that. Sometimes when I get down I put on a CD (usually My Own Prison because it is such an emotional CD) and just get lost in the music - and the next thing you know its like I've gotten everything out that I wanted to get out just by chilling and listening to music.
Anyhow - if you need to talk you can always PM me or whatever!
Meredith
