Tina, I'm sorry that you are feeling like an outsider right now. If it's any consolation, an awful lot of people here have had times where we felt that way...I know I have.

You know, I go to another site, for a different issue than my depression. And when I read people there who are recovered talk about how great they are doing, and how much their lives have improved because of their recovery, sometimes I get so sad that I cry, because I can't imagine ever being recovered myself, ever having the wonderful things that they have found in their lives. But even though it makes me sad sometimes, I'm glad I have their stories to read, because it shows me that their is a path to recovery, and I just need to keep looking until I find it.

So I really hope you keep posting about your own path out of depression, because every story of recovery helps shine light on that path for others, even if they might not see it right away.

*hugs*
Jo
