The scariest part for me was admitting it to myself. I had a friend tell me over a year prior to me admitting I was depressed that she thought I was. I ended up crying when she told me, then I cut off all outside contact with people and started isolating myself. Then I kept putting off making an appointment with a counselor. When I finally did it felt so good. Good luck you are brave taking that step, be proud of yourself

I'm not sure if my last message posted or not. lol I just wanted to tell you that making the appointment is brave of you. It takes courage to reach out to others for help. Be proud of yourself to do that. It took me over a year to do so.
