Irregardless of how long youve been in on this, you are different, and more than likely always will be different.

I feel into the depression hole, very deep into the depression hole at one point. I pulled myself out, that alone was a battle.

Key is to never give up, and stay positive. Its tough, very tough. But its who we are now and nothing will change that. We need to learn workarounds, and not just say, oh I know I cant do that so Ill just avoid it completely. No, you must try a different approach, if that one fails, try another approach and keep trying. Dont ever quit. Of course its not easy. Some of you are in a better boat than I am, some are in a far worse boat than I am. All of us can bond together to make a darn cruise liner, and help each other.

My new take on this is like marriage. For better or for worse, we are going to have ups and downs. Second thoughts, even fights within our own heads. But we must stay positive.

If there is no hope, then what is there to live for? Keep that in mind, if anyone wants to pm me and need help with the depression im here to help. Ive always prided myself as being strong willed from my time in the military, and even that faltered at one point in this past 8 months. It almost cracked, but it didnt. The human body has adopted and evolved for thousands of years, so please dont think your own body will stop adopting or evolving because of our injuries.
