I haven't been able to really talk on the phone I just haven't had the energy. Two days ago I texted my brother and asked him if he would just text me each day and forgive me if I didn't text back but I felt I really needed to know that someone out there was thinking of me. I know he worries about me and thinks about me constantly but I needed to affirmation. Well today we started talking about books, he had several new ones that I haven't read and we discussed them a little. An hour later he texted me saying he had shipped me a care package of books. For the first time in ages my depression seemed to click off like a switch. This has never happened to me before and I know it probably will be short lived but for the moment I am just going to enjoy it. Has anyone else felt this before, It was literally like a switch being flipped. Maybe it is a sign of a little hope.

Didn't I woke up in the middle of the night feeling pretty bad but it was a nice little break even if it was short lived. I think it was the first time I've felt almost normal in years, I guess it is amazing what a little act of kindness can do.

Hi Martek,
Yes, it happened to me, it was in fact something that happen to my mom (she got suddenly sick and I had to "wake up" and be very diligent to take care of things)

A friend that i had thought I lost sent me a message telling me she was worried about me and wanted to get dinner with me once a week. That only lasted for 4 weeks but it was great while it lasted.

It is amazing I think that may be the only reason I have made it so long was the occasion reminder of better times. Unfortunately over the years it seems harder and harder.
