were you quiet before the depression?
and dont worry about being quiet,this just means you are not ready to let it out yet,
or maybe you do not trust anyone enough to let it out,
but you will on your own time,and this is a great place to open up.
just sorry about all of the havock lately,hopfully we will be back to our old selves soon..
and quite a few are reluctant to open up lately because of all of it, so it could be that.
but it is something you cannot force yourself to talk about, you have to be ready,but it will need to come out eventually so that you can heal..but we are on no kind of schedule.that will have to be when you are ready.
hugs

I can be either way. Sometimes I am quiet, and other times outspoken. Most of the time quiet, and it is unusual for me to be outspoken. I think, because I am a writer, and my voice is in writing.
I tend to go through my little spurts where I'm real social and then I shut down. It's like turning off a switch, I just get to the point where I have no more to say, or don't want to talk anymore to anyone.
Sometimes this can last quite some time, I've been away in a quite zone for months, and at longest almost two years. You will come around when you are ready. Rushing can make it worse. The fact that you are hear and talking is good. Keep up the good work even if it's just online!
And open up if and when you's ready!! You know where i am if you need me!!
Two sentences with this post wooo hooo you go babe.
