Need your prayers and good thoughts
Hi folks, I normally don't get all serious and maudlin, but I could really use some good vibes and prayers.

As most of you know, I've been battling clinical depression for most of my life. I had a major episode last spring that landed me in the hospital, and it looks like I'm in the middle of one right now. I'm trying to avoid the hospital, and am under a doctors care again. I'm trying my best to beat this thing, but it's been on my back most of my life, and I've only got so much fight in me.

I just wanted to thank you all for giving a damn about me, and really appreciate the support you've given me in the past. I will probably have to leave here for awhile so I can get myself well. If you want to PM me, feel free, as I'll probably check those and could really use the support right now.

Peace be with you all,
nnns

11. But why?
You are an incredible person! Seeing you around makes me happy.

Yeah I know it's tough... and there are days when you think I can't do this anymore. Been there done that.. But you are much stronger than you think you are.

So I'm saying do whatever you need to get well... and try to see yourself through my eyes.Because I see someone amazing.

Khash.

Isn't it ironic that the funniest people often also suffer from depression? Your posts keep me in stitches.

Take care, m'friend. You did it before - you can do it again. I wish you all the best.

32. I am there with you.
I have had serious chronic pain for 15 years now. Anyone who has chronic pain also has chronic depression.

I will be thinking about you and looking for your posts to see if you're around. Be well.

37. THANK YOU EVERYONE
a quick update:

I'm not in the hospital, but I'm in a safe place. I am seeing some doctors on Tuesday who will hopefully help me get this sorted. They're also adding another scrip to my mix so maybe that will do something too.

Right now I'm safe. I feel horrible, but I'm safe. Sugar Smack, if you read this, please check your PMs. I haven't been able to call today because I've been asleep/unconscious. I love you and care about you very much. I will try to talk to you tomorrow, my love. I promise.

Once again, thanks to all of you for your warm thoughts and prayers. In the words of one of my favorite bands (Killing Joke): No way out but forward go.
