for once i can actually post about how good I feel, rather than how confused and upset!!! i had a talk to my aunt last night and it held led to a conversation about my mother's mental illness and how it is particularly bad atm but she still won't seek help. Anyway, i ended up talking about my depression and how last year i had a particularly bad episode and finally went on prozac and how well it had been working for me. And you know what she responded?! " Yeah, it's pretty good isn't it, I take it too". I felt like I had a huge weight lifted off my shoulders b/c finally I've got a family member who acknowledges it and understands what it's like and that means so much to me...she is the best
