just try to go with it alf. depression cannot be hidden away. unfortunately you have to deal with it as and when it happens so just allow the world to pass you by for a short while, allow your mind repair itself and do what needs to be done. dont disconnect yourself, that will make it worse in the long run.

what is Dysthymic Disorder, could you possibly explain a little about it to me please. thanks.

keep up the therapy, its a good thing to do, and dont worry about crying yourself to sleep, if you feel like crying, let it out and cry yourself to sleep. at least then you clear your system and get some sleep.

take it easy alf and you are in my thoughts
