My name is Paige and I am 42 years old. I have suffered from Clinical depression all my life. It has been the one thing that has shaped my attitudes and my feelings now as an adult. I have been through so much treatment it isn't funny. Thank you for being here for support. I have to have a place where I feel I belong.

Welcome to DS! Lots of good people here. We practice our own brand of support that includes a healthy percentage of humor, tears, laughter, advice and shared experience.

Did I mention the humor? A lot of us find that works really well as we fight the beast we call depression.

Thank you for all of this I don't know what to say. I always play nice and that is my problem sometimes. People say all the time that I am too nice to people because they can walk all over me. But I like to be nice because it is not in my nature to be mean to people.
