Depression Hurts
Posted on Friday, March 30, 2007 at 9:15 PM by Robby Roberts
Some of you that know me know that I've had a long hard fight with depression the last few years. I thought I had it under control, but earlier this week an event caused me to have to "Rehash" past events - events I have tried so hard to keep out of my mind.
The last few days, I've tried and tried to clear my mind. Any of you that have ever tried to "NOT" think about something know that what you are trying to "NOT" think about is what you wind up thinking about.
It makes you feel so alone, even when surrounded by friends and family. And, there is nothing that anyone can say or do to cheer you up - and many times, though they mean well, their efforts to make you feel better wind up making matters worse.
It's something you can't understand until you've walked that path yourself.
