it's interesting what wilamh said-- am i isolated because i'm depressed or am i depressed because i'm isolated? when i'm depressed i cut myself off entirely. i've lost a lot of friends and some significant others because of it. i can't open up and i can't verbalize anything. i just shut down and shut off.

i wish i knew how to fix it. it's easier for me to type... so i'll often spend a lot of time online because it's the only time i can put words to my thoughts. if it weren't for the internet, i'm sure i'd be dead by now.

i can relate, anyway.

take care,
ghost
