Thanks Spike for letting us spout about how we FEEL. Great topic!
Although not the most uplifting subject it is really nice to see how many of us feel similar.
I attend group therapy and they all come from abusive childhoods, bad marriages, death's etc.
I always feel a little guilty when I listen to them. How could I be depressed when I have nothing situational to do it to me. Their stories are horrific and yet I FEEL the same as them.
It is nice to be validated by what I have read in these last few post.As some of you have said, others that don't understand look at you and think why doesn;t she snap out of it!!
Thanks all, you have helped mucho!
plus the med advise is great also.....
