I can relate as well to what you're describing. Depression is a sneaky condition, and seem to know how to wriggle itself into every aspect of our lives. It's hard to deal with no matter what you do. But talking about it does help most of the time.
I've fought depression so many ways, some that worked a bit and more that didn't. But I aways have to remember that deep inside the darkness I still exist, and I will pull through one way or another. I do drive my mother crazy sometimes when I call her several times a day, but I do it becaue I know she's someone I can trust, and that means a lot.
If you are looking for someone to talk to about your depression, to simply share and converse about it, then you have come to the right place. There are many people here who want the same thing. You can come here to the forum, and most people don't mind if you PM them. And then there are also the chat rooms. I hope that all these things, and especially the people here, do make you feel better. Feel free to talk to me whenever you want. It's one of the few things I seem to be good at.
In the meantime, good luck and best of wishes to you, Dannii. I hope you have many more good days than bad.
Sincerely,
Idealist
