I am curious if anyone else cares to share when their "other birthday" is and how they plan to celebrate that day.

Since most of the time we associate the time around our final fall/breakdown/diagnosis--call it what you want--as a bad time, I think we should celebrate that time as a new birthday and the release of our old life and the beginning of a new one.

My "new birtrhday" is Sept. 19 1997. Every year around this time without even realizing the date I begin to get anxious/panic and fall into a deep depression. So I am determined that this year I am going to turn this time of year into a celebration.

How about you?
