That's a nice post. I don't come here as much as I used too. I am in a position that allows me more time to come here, but I will be changing jobs on Monday , and that job is likely not going to allow me as much time to come on and speak with you all. you are right about the group being decent people, go on any other place where you post threads and wait for comments and it's like an arena where they just wait for someone to say any little thing they can pounce on and tear people to shreds verbally. Really sad, but good there is a place like DS where we can come for support and comfort.

Welcome, I haven't been on much either, but its time I do. I miss meeting and hearing the good things from others. As for conquering this depression, thats very hopeful. Not happening here though. Small maybe, but I don't have the strength to fight that hard, gets to exhausting. Thanks for your post, was awesome.

Thank you for your post, that was very sweet. It is great to have such a caring group of people to come to when we need to talk. I hope we do beat the depression but until then I am always here for you Diane M
