Welcome to Gaia! :: View User's Journal | Gaia Journals

So things are still looking up. thank god it's supposed to be cooler weather this week too. things were starting to get unbearable the last few days.

yesterday i made some friends here on Gaia. a couple i knew irl, but two others are totally new. of course there's a small catch.

i made them, because we're all suffering from depression (the real thing, not teen angst). i'm hoping i can help them some, because i've had so many years of experience.

one is easier, because he's actually looking for help, but the other ... i don't know if i can do much or not ... we'll see, and I'll definitely try. it's just that, so much of depression's treatment depends on the suffer's strength and desire to get better. really, you have to help yourself, other's can only act as or give you the tools, you have to actually use them.

wish me luck!
