I am a silver lining type of guy.. I know if we put our heads together we can come up with a whole thread of 'great things' about being depressed..

1. the great thing about depression is..

the worse the news, the better I feel..
for instance..

When I heard about the BP oil leak down on the coast, I thought, "Hopefully it will destroy the world quickly and I won't need to keep working and living in pain."

10. I hate to admit that I know what you're talking about

There are more times than I care to admit when I have the exact same reaction.

11. I have to admit I thought this was a unique feeling I had

glad to know.. well.. misery.. company..

Peace and low stress..

2. the good thing about mdmc's depression

is that it lessens the wear and tear on his aching joints by keeping him from climbing mountains and such.

5. Finding friends who can relate.

I was diagnosed with major depression and anxiety.. and my best friend is bipolar. We can relate to each other, and understand each other... we are always there for each other when one of us is feeling depressed...

7. I think there were times it kept me out of trouble.

I'm a very dangerous fellow when I don't know what I'm doing.
