{{{{{{{{{{{Candy}}}}}}}}}}} What can I say, being in the same place as you are right now. Yup! Depression is a master LIAR. It whispers it's ugly comments in the hidden recesses of your mind and warps your outlook on everything else.

Keep a watch on that self-talk, Hun. For everything negative Depression whispers to you, yell back TWO positives! "I did what was best for my boy, therefore I'm a great mom!" "Wow, look at all the experience I'm tucking under my belt so that I'll be able to get one of those high-paying jobs soon." Etc., etc., and soforth. You said it yourself! You're intelligent and witty!

Oh... and get your sweet self under that lamp, will ya?? LOL
