Thank you for your response--it helps.

Frownupsidedown, I feel EXACTLY the way you, that if I just tried harder or somehow thought differently, my depression would go away. The fact that it literally came on overnight tells me there's a chemical component (for me), and I have no control over that part of it.
Wishing you peace and happiness . . .
