melpomene, this is your quote and it is so beautiful. i am sorry that you feel so down and hopeless. we can only live in today and try to think of the beautiful things that could just be around the corner for you. it takes a lot of energy when i am depressed but i try to reflect on the times when i was so glad to be alive!! or about someone i love, like my son. i may have my highs and valleys but sometimes i just focus on the next positive step or moment. try to be kind to youself today and know that we care.

*hugs* thanks. I know I should try harder and be less nihilistic, it's just trying to be happy seems fake sometimes which jsut makes me feel worse. The thing is, I can be so happy at lunch times with my friends, but then I got to a lesson and I'm not taling anymore, or on teh bus home, or even at home, things jsut seem utterly hopeless. I would love a kid - not yet because I'm too young, but because I don't have one, I dont have them to distract me or love. There's my mum, who I love. I just don't see good in amy future. Any hope I have with my friends is eradicated when I'm alone.
But thankyou for reminding me of that quote> I completely love it and it brings me such comfort. I find myself thinking I'll never find love, not the sort I want, but in truthm, I already have it, with my family and friends, people who care
