> It's been about 3 1/2 years since I made my gut wrenching breakthrough in therapy. It became apparent to me at the age of 30 that I had never grieved over my father's passing at the age of 7. I had alot of hope when I came through that experience. The great secret that my mind wouldn't let me in on was finally out in the open. I hoped that my healing would begin and progress rapidly... Well, this isn't what exactly happened. My pain got 10 times worse, and to this day I still feel the grief and pain of an event that happened over 25 years ago.

> I guess my questions for babblers are: Has anyone experienced a no doubt about it breakthrough? What happened next? Did your spirit become free and your depression lifted? Did things get worse like they did for me? And finally, what happened to your outlook on life? I have always had hope that I could take on this demon, but it's become more than anything I could have bargained for.
DO NOT STAND BY MY GRAVE AND WEEP.
I AM NOT THERE. I DO NOT SLEEP
I AM A THOUSAND WINDS THAT BLOW
I AM A DIAMOND GLINT ON SNOW
I AM THE SUNLIGHT ON RIPENED GRAIN
I AM THE GENTLE AUTUMN RAIN.
WHEN YOU AWAKE IN THE MORNING HUSH
I AM THE SWIFT UPLIFTING RUSH
OF QUIET BIRDS IN CIRCLING FLIGHT
I AM THE SOFT STARSHINE AT NIGHT
DO NOT STAND BY MY GRAVE AND CRY
I AM NOT THERE...I DID NOT DIE.
