Just a Thought

I may or may not have a little or a lot more to say about this in a future post, but I wanted to get it out there while it's still fresh in my head:

The thing about depression is that, yeah, it's a sickness, and you can't "get better" without help, so don't be afraid to ask for it wherever you can get it -- but, even if you are able to find excellent help, that's all it is.

Help.

In the end, you have to save yourself. 

Obviously, that's going to seem impossible when depression's got you in its clutches and you can't figure out how to escape from the depths of despair, but trust me: If I can do it (and I did), so can you.

You're stronger than you think.

  1. I think my favorite thing about any and all of your blog posts ever is that I can always see you sitting me down and telling me anything you write from across a table at an Applebee's (okay, so I really love Applebee's, but any restaurant would work).
