Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
One night a man dreamed he was walking along a beach with the Lord..
As scenes from his life flashed before him, he looked at the path of footprints and noticed that during the saddest times of his life, there was only one set of footprints in the sand.
Troubled, he asked " Lord, why did you leave me when I needed you most?" The Lord replied, "My child, I would never leave you, during your times of trial, when you see only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you."
This is a poem I live by...Religious or not, it is uplifting and moving and helps some of my hardest days, more bearable.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
