For myself, I discovered that the waves weren't really depression but grief. I discovered I had many legitimate things to grieve over in my life and since my coping mechanism was to stuff and bury any and all feelings quickly, I had a lot of grief inside me that eventually needed to come out...... especially when I found a safe person to share it with. It still doesn't come up easily and it's darn-right scary sometimes because I'm afraid it will overwhelm me.

Just what came to my mind as I read your post~
