Hi Dexter,
I was glad to see you make an appointment. I am newer to the board but an old companion of depression. I had a major set back this past year and it is awful when you're older and it feels like a never ending cycle. I wish I had known about this site years ago. I am like baseline in that I hide my depression from everyone. I am trying to find a group of people that I feel I can be myself. I am going to a meetup in my city for depression and anxiety. I also keep saying that I am going to take a yoga class but we'll see! If you bounced back before you can do it again. It just doesn't feel that way when you are in the pit. I wouldn't worry about your appearance. I personally do not look at what someone looks like. It truly is their character that matters. I know a lot of people say that, but it really is true. I wouldn't care if someone looked like a toad if they were kind to me and loved me unconditionally. I'll be looking to see how you're appointment goes. My meds were just changed yesterday, so as the youngins put it these days I am a little salty. My daughter just gave me that one last night. I am so hip.
