So, I don't know what it's like from the inside, but I have seen it at close range. Good for you for taking the steps you need. I hope you are feeling better soon.StephLovehttp://www.allfortheloveofyou.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7407121007536351162.post-77062758030469783652010-02-04T13:05:17.610-05:002010-02-04T13:05:17.610-05:00"When you are in the grips of depression, the...<i>"When you are in the grips of depression, the good things are all muffled and muted, like a TV in the apartment next door, by that heavy darkness that seems to spread from the inside out."</i><br /><br />Holy crap. How perfect a statement is that?<br /><br />I'm glad you're asking for help too. Here's to finding our way out soon.Mama Goosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06981857083383583631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7407121007536351162.post-73587831304142854762010-02-02T22:38:36.804-05:002010-02-02T22:38:36.804-05:00Oh Natasha.

Writing these feelings down certainly must help a bit. I've never met you, but ever since I've read your lovely blog, I've felt that I know you. You are a friend to me, albeit a "virtual" one, so I hope my virtual HUG and fierce sympathy help too. Stay strong. You will get through this.Staceyhttp://nuzzie.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7407121007536351162.post-7576834822944929522010-02-02T21:12:55.707-05:002010-02-02T21:12:55.707-05:00I'm so sorry you are having a rough time.

You've been through so much, it's only natural to have bad days.

I hope that by posting this it helped you.<br /><br />There's nothing wrong with asking for help. Adoption, cancer, family issues - they are all difficult. If leaning on people can help relieve the burden even a little bit, I hope you do.<br /><br />We don't know each other except in the virtual sense but I hope you know I'm thinking of you and all that you are going through.Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08342109839956458589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7407121007536351162.post-72098261786581774822010-02-02T10:28:43.057-05:002010-02-02T10:28:43.057-05:00Good for you.

You're not broken.<br /><br />I also have a fantastic therapist that I don't see regularly. I just go in about every quarter and get a 3,000 mile check up.<br /><br />Good for you for recognizing the symptoms before you go too far down the spiral. <br /><br />Prayers for you and all else...Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12146877657168991115noreply@blogger.com
