Makes good sense. Have any idea how long a grief period is grief before it turns to depression? I've never lost a family member...I've also talked a lot about how I repressed 13 years of my life in my above thread. What do you think of that? I've never really thought about it too much until now. I always just joked about it.."hey, cool, I don't remember which is a good thing" Again, don't feel like you have to answer.. just confused.
> > Grief. Grief. Thanks Glenn... that was what I was looking for. Could this be just grief and not depression? That is the question. :-) I definately would like to think so.

> Could be. But at what point does grief become depression? Grief is generally finite; it fades with time (tho' of course you'll always be sad about yr loss). When grief doesn't resolve (ie allow you to function) within a 'reasonable' period of time, arguably you're looking @ straight depression. Time for therapy (for grief), & meds for depression?
