<font color="orange"> Hi Wants2Fly,

(Soooo....if you could fly, where would you fly to? And are you taking passengers?)

Thanks for your detailed message. I've actually been on the forums for awhile, but I seem to only post in spurts. Thanks for the welcome, though!!

I'm not sure that I am depressed. Isn't that odd? Even when I slit my wrist, I can't really say that I was depressed. Then again, one of my difficulties is not being able to identify my feelings.....I can't even say that I *have* any feelings......I just AM. Make sense?? I know when I'm loopy, though! I can distinguish when I'm not stable and disconnected and in danger. But as for feelings.....nope, can't say that I could interpret those.

So, I say that I'm not depressed now......although, just by looking at the facts of what constitute a depression, I seem to fit into that category. But still......nooooo......I don't think I'm depressed. Well, at least I'm not suicidal right now. That I know for sure.

How are you doing in your recovery? Are your stress reduction techniques working well? I think it's wonderful when we find individual ways to deal with our own illnesses. Not only does it alleviate some of the symptoms, but it also empowers us with a sense of having some control in this nasty game. I wish you all the best, Wants2Fly!!

Enjoy the rest of your day!!

Hugs,
Sandy
