WOW!!! ok i looked up this stuff too, very interesting.
03fifteen is in a way like i am. my father was an alcoholic (since i was age 7 until he died when i was 20). my family never ever talked about emotions. infact you were looked at as week if you ever cried about anything, depression was just some namby pamby psycho clap trap babble. i remember once i was depressed around the age of 14ish (for no real reason that i know of) my mother was yelling at me "why are you sad? you have no reason to be sad! so tell me what is the matter!" i said "i dont know" *i was crying* my mothers only response was "if you dont know why; then stop! if you cant tell me why i cant help you!"
i have always struggled with depression and always felt horrible for felling that way. i have no reason to feel as i do. when i was in the Navy they gave me prozac (didnt really work but thats what i got lol) i know i need therapy but for now i cant afford that lol.
dont want to be a post thief sorry if i came off that way.
Thanks for posting this was very informative and helpful.
