Re: Mourning over an avoidant life
I have been there. Oh wait, I think I'm still there! Haha. I'm only in my twenties, but I too tend to ruminate over what I've lost. I wonder where I would be right now if I had finished school. Would I be well to-do? Maybe financially stable enough to be married? Maybe I would have travelled. Maybe ...

Re: Study Finds Turmeric Is As Effective As Prozac

Re: Study Finds Turmeric Is As Effective As Prozac

My Long Story Part II : The Lesser Evil
I gave a pretty exhaustive account of my struggle with depression a bit over a month ago and would like to expand upon it now. I've struggled with both depression and anxiety for a long time, but anxiety was the lesser evil. Depression was always what seemed to define my life, always with me, always...

my long story - one I've never told before
Hello all, I posted a very short version of this in the "introduce yourselves here" thread but I've been wanting to share the whole thing for a long time now, and figured this is a good place to start. I've never spelled everything out for anyone before, but I believe that sharing who I am...

I come from an extremely religious family of mental illness deniers. I grew up in a world where there was no mental illnes...
