what a special person you are. When I am depressed I feel helpless. My husband is my insperation and really helps with my daily exercise and doing things around the house. I love life too, but every 3-4 years this depression come about me that just comes from nowhere. My sister and mother too had it so I guess its just a gene that we have in the family. I work on it on a daily basis and have been in one of those "funks" now for about 2 months. I am on medication and it does help but I also know that the main thing is I push myself and that also helps. My husband said pills won't do it all you have to participate.
God Bless you dear and my prayers are with you. You can do it!!!!!!

@brit Thanks for your encouraging words, Patti. I especially like the phrase, "pills won't do it all you have to participate" even though participation (movement, exercise, socialization) can be difficult when you are feeling down, it is still a good antidote. Best wishes to you for a good day. Teresa
