Thanks, guys. I was getting worried, too. I found lots of good stuff in Jelly's old threads that have helped me get focused and feel more in control. I've ordered some books and worksheets, since I am determined to take as mindful an approach as I am able in defeating this monster (depression.) I'm going to learn all I can and put it into practice. I really want to get to the point that every day is a gift waiting to be opened, rather than another day I dread having to get through. I've been dreading life for years. It's time to do something different.
I really liked the last attorney I talked to. He really made me feel safe. Promised me he would fight for me as if I were his little sister. He said he really felt like it was meant for him to help me, and he knocked several thousand off his fee to help. I've got a good feeling, but need to not get my hopes up too high. Whatever happens, I will deal with it.
