Well I'm glad I could be helpful. I do not have a good support system at all whatsoever. But I think that's just part of my depression.
I'm glad to hear that you're on the other end of things and are doing better.
You're not kidding about the stunning depth of depression that's for sure. I am on day 8 of no medication and feeling exceptionally depressed. I will check out that Facebook page you recommended

ug. So sorry it's hard. I had to keep in my mind the fact that the feelings I have are not me. The way to know that is to keep noticing that separate from the depression I can see, feel, measure the depression. Then I go to an inside my body place of "not the depression" and watch the depression like clouds in the sky floating and metaphorically hug the part that is not the depression but is sad, lonely, tired. I was thinking too, this site is distant from us but is support because we see that there are others doing this difficult but incredibly empowering walk. Hugs to you.
