I agree ...Hi Diana, I'm so sorry this happened. I agree with Amy, you are not alone! The real "root cause" is the depression itself, and I sure hope you can figure out a way to defeat that monster head on. I heard some great advice recently: "Don't compare your insides with other people's outsides" -- i.e., who knows what's really going on in the lives of those happy-looking people. Married people can be struck by despair just as easily as single people, and they both can be supremely happy, too. Here's to more of the latter!Ironmom (Julie)https://www.blogger.com/profile/14178486144653846897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6772970728044386256.post-15645675933574457162011-03-07T10:07:02.924-05:002011-03-07T10:07:02.924-05:00Good morning, my friend!

You are not alone. I know it feels that way when the depths of depression start to suck you down to their level. I have been there several times in the past five years. Please know that your friends love you, and that although not all of us struggle with the same things, we all struggle with something. I started working out seriously almost a year ago because of my own depression, and the improvement it has made on my life has been a Godsend. I want you to come work out with me! We will do the Crystal Beach triathlon together, and we will MAKE all of our Pilot friends come cheer us on. I'm game if you are!
