Ladyzero, I've mentally and emotionally been where you are. Not on Facebook because it didn't exist at the time, but I'd look around and it seemed everyone was having a better, happier life than me. It stunk.

I've got to say that what you see on Facebook is probably not the whole story for these folks. People tend to post about the happy stuff in life. Like someone else said, they post pictures of happy events, not of hubby coming home drunk and beating the snot out of them. So what you are seeing is a very biased view of those people's lives.

However, when I was feeling the way you are hearing what I wrote above would not have helped. My depression had my vision of the world so blackened it seemed my life stunk and everyone else was happy, happy HAPPY. As I got better so did my perception of life. I hope that the same is true for you.
