Hi Octsobers.

My interweb connection has been down all day, and I've really missed you.

My heart goes out to you Briar and Jenn. I can't add any more advice than has already been given other than to say that I share everybody's love and concern for you.

I'm no stranger to depression myself and have been on meds for it for many years. I know how very difficult it is to reach out when that black cloud descends, but I also know now that it is the reaching out that helps to pull me out of the abyss. I've also come to understand that alcohol plays havoc with the medication and I hope that once the alcohol leaves us and stays away then things will settle down and become more balanced.

On a lighter note, it's roll call day on Monday, so if you're just lurking, get posting to let us know how you're getting on, whether it's good, bad or indifferent. It's only the people who've posted in the week that get included in the roll call. You don't want to be marked absent because I'll have to send a letter home to your parents!

Happy, sober weekend all.
