      From luvscoco99 July 16

      I don't want for you to give in to the depression! I want for you to TRY harder at whatever is harrassing you in your mind and I say harrass..because that is what it feels like to me, when I go thru depression!!!
      I truly want for you to feel great again!!!
      I have not just known some people with bad depression but, I have had it..and it's NOT a great place at all to be in!! I really want to lift your spirits up and out..so that you can be happy and enjoy your life again!!
      Please, take care of you!!!!
