All this in a few short weeks since you were in hospital.

Be gentle on yourself.
Said beautifully. And I agree 100%.

As someone else who has dealt with major depression for many years, I am in awe of you Leshar. You are doing so well!! And I really believe Crois is right about not giving in to those feelings. I know I can 'feed' my depression. Or I can nurture myself.

And yes Crois, who'd a thought that looking after ourselves so we can do better tomorrow would work instead of drinking? Probably lots of people, but I'm not one of them. Well, I am now.

Love and good morning to all of you. ♥
