It takes an incredible amount of fortitude and perseverance to tread thru this worldly existence with such a debilitating disease of major depression. For all those struggling everyday with something that severely handicaps one's physical vitality & impacts their spiritual growth, I salute you...

I agree with you. Depression is not for sissys. I have dealt with depression since 1985. It comes and goes with highs and lows and, it is often triggered by the slightest things.

Through the years, I have learned what this does to me and I am a fighter. I take my meds. and I deal with it for what it is. I have found that talking to others and trying to help them, also helps me. This is one of the reasons I joined DS 8 years ago.
