Dear Pooh, I am sorry that you are experiencing depression, seemingly caused by family troubles. I do have trouble as you do with my family. I am thinking of you, and hoping there is some peace that can come into your life. I often think of the holidays as particularly stressful with a family that doesn't get along. Do something nice for yourself, and try to do to others as you would would want to be treated, even if they don't get it. I feel better about myself when I can be kind even when in pain. take care ginnie
