Depression Support Group
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.
I recently found a phrase that reads something like this...
" When younger we all thought that as grown-ups we would no longer feel vulnerable, but to grow up is to accept vulnerability."
I find it true, wise, and very relieving.
I hope you all like it to.

I know what you mean strange1. It's hard for me to accept vulnerability too. It's not easy or entirely our fault, I think, since there are so many threats to us out there while vulnerable or at least I perceive a lot of threats.
