I so agree with what you've said. it's the reason that i've been quiet for 2 1/2 yrs. however, i wonder sometimes if i'm being selfish to the children in here who might need some special understanding from hubby and daughters.

i'm sorry that you think your father would be disappointed, silver. have you explained to him that depression can just happen physically and unexplained? just like someone who doesn't have a family history of diabetes can get it... Believe me, i know that some ppl still refuse to understand even when it's explained that way. I sure hope you find the understanding and acceptance that you need. and you may just want to keep it private and all to yourself right now. i know when i dealt with alot of depression, i didn't want to tell them that i was depressed again, because in that depression, i would think that i was making things worse and making myself a horrible burden and cause for concern.

thanks for responding!
