Grateful to everyone who has talked to me

I want to say thank you to everyone who has reached out and talked to me. It is helping. I still have a lot of fear and worry about what is going to happen to me and whether I am going to get well, but I am able to put it aside a little bit and sometimes think hopefully about the future. Yesterday I made the bed without feeling as if I needed to cry because the task was so hard. It didn't feel quite as hard to make a lunch this morning. I still find it hard to put on makeup like I used to wear (haven't been able to do it), and I still haven't really put anything into my crock pot or really cooked for the past five months--except once-- but maybe that will change too. It's been so long--a year and a half that feels like ten--since I've been normal, not depressed. Thank you for helping me to keep hope alive.

Good for you for patting yourself on the back for small accomplishments. Of course they are not small though for us. They are huge for me when deeply depressed.
