Makes sense. Depression can take so many different things away from us. I know when I'm down I need to make an effort to talk with Him. It's like I feel guilty for being down.. like it's my fault. I should know better. Well, I really do know that it isn't my fault. It's just at that moment.. or days of being down that bring the false feelings. I've decided to talk anyway. It helps bring me out of something that I know is trying to beat me down and away from where I should be. I know, easier said than done. But it does help. I may still be down for a while, but not as bad.I have Cynthia. He did recommend a few support groups, but so far I already have therapy and go to my school's wellness center. I still have ups and downs of course, but its a direction, not a destination. Church helps me too, though I can tell this whole depression thing has weakened my faith. I don't mention it a lot, but i'd say its something that affects me the most. I take "religion" pretty seriously and its makes me sad. I miss what I used to have. Wonder if that makes sense. I hope it does.
