dear Sen, I see that you have made an enormous effort by posting 487 times, and sorry forgive me but my memory won't expand that far back, but I'm sure that I will quickly catch up with your previous posts.
There are many wonderful people on this site who are still haunted by their demons, but they want to reply to others who are also in need of assistance, and the generosity and care would have to be outstanding.
I am one of the lucky ones and have overcome my depression, but this isn't to say that I can have a relapse, which I have, but the important part to this is that I knew I would get better, in contrast to someone who has their head just popping out of the ground, and then they fall back into depression, then their thought would be 'here we go again', so all their negative thoughts come back, which puts back to square one.
Whereas your attitude 'I'm getting stronger I'm learning to battle my demons and manage all of this', so what this does mean that you are well and truly coming out of your depression, and perhaps I am not giving you enough credit, but really I am, because it takes a great deal of strength to be able to do this, and can't you feel the relief and pleasure of being able to function in a normal way.
Now I feel so sorry for the rest of our wonderful people who just can't shake off their depression, and by saying this it doesn't take into account those who have been sexually abused at a young age, or those who have lost a family friend/sibling, which then incorporates another type of depression and has to be treated in another way.
I am curious as to how they are treating you for 'borderline personality disorder so many many different personalities', especially as you are getting older, and here I am saying this as I'm 59, so look who's talking.
Great to have you back. L Geoff. x
