The past few days I have felt severely depressed. I go through these bouts where I want to cry. I'm not sure what is wrong with me. I hate that I'm not looking forward to life. Everything is just aching and then goes numb. and my whole self wants to escape. I'm between therapists right now, so im glad i have this forum for support.

Hi Sad Girl -- I've felt like crying, too, today.

I don't know what comes over me. I wish I did. I wish I could fix it. For you. For me.

Love and hugs.

Here's hoping for a better day for you and me both.
Love,
Jon

I had a couple of days where I was crying, and it had nothing to do with the pain!

I love depression.....NOT!!!!! It just sucks the life-force right out of you, along with any energy or motivation that you might have. I'm now at the "falling asleep in my wheelchair phase". (I didn't know this bloody disease had stages, a numbness stage, an anger stage, a suicide stage, a crying stage, a tiredness stage. You can bounce around all of them like Tigger.) Oh, my e-mails must be a joy to read--not!

I hope they find some answers for you soon, because this disease is no fun.

There is a thing more crippling than cerebral palsy: the prison of your own mind.
