      From 1women August 19, 2008

      Hi Charlie, I just read one of your posts and decided to read your profile. It was the depression brought me to you. I am so happy to hear you are moving up as it gives me hope that one day the same thing will happen for me. I won't go into the why's of my depression but like many others I suppose when I read your journal it is like reading about myself, inparticular the avoiding of others, I find it a very hard way to live but seems like it is all I can do at this time. I have read lots on here lately about the preditors here on DS and just want to assure you I am not one of them, LOL, it is awful that a person should have to say this to another but it is the sad world we live in today. Anyway Charlie I do hope that you keep moving on up, I am rooting for you. My name is Lorie Hugs to you

    • Close Depression

      i have been unhappy for a while. i was an active and social person and over the last two years i was wondering why i wanted to do things but just couldn't pick my self up to do things. i was quite content staying at home in front of the T.V. with my husband. I hit rock bottom earlier this year when my husband left me, and my mum got cancer. i suddenly recognised something was wrong when i couldn't stop crying. i am getting better i am going through the motions of life and functioning.
