Hello, SlatkaMala!

Poorly.

Most of the time my depression manifests as apathy and withdrawal. Occasionally, however, I experience short but intense deep sadness accompanied by loud tears and paralysis. Neither meds nor therapy prevent these spells; I just live through them. After a while the apathy and emptiness return.

I'm sorry.
