It's really cool what you're doing. If you look in depression success stories, the people who got a benefit from meditation say they needed to do it solidly for a couple of weeks before they got a big breakthrough.

I do understand about a lot of rejections on job search. I tried to get back into my field couple of years back but i failed. I had my friends telling me i wasn't looking hard enough, but i know i was searching. I could of done more but with what i was going through, i think i managed the best i can. Then situation got worse. Then someone really helped me out with housing. Still have to figure out job situation, but i do have a low paying and not many hours job. So i am grateful for some money coming in.
Thanks Vital! I have to finish reading your section. I think it was long and i stopped and haven't gotten back to it.
You doing okay now?
There was a time i did meditation often with group of people. That really help sitting with others. Doing it alone is a lot harder as when you want to get up and sleep, you can do it so easily vs when you are sitting public with others.
Thanks so much for your input and helping others.
I try to do your snap sometimes.
