Susie,

Good for you that you did something for yourself. You got yourself out of the house and to a meeting. I am proud of you for making that effort on your own behalf. I hope you are proud of yourself as well.

It is good for us to know we are not alone, and that's one of the things I like about this board. We can talk to each other, gain insight, and get things off our minds.

A usefull tool is to get a notebook and write down times when you do feel better. I would find that it helped give me a perspective that things were not always bad, all day every day. Sometimes when we are feeling depressed our mind plays tricks on us, and we don't realizie that there may be times in the day when we do feel better. This can help us clue into when our depression is lifting, thereby encouraging us that things will and are getting better.
