quote: I think this place brings some comfort during their struggle.
Kent, I see what you mean, that using a support group for comfort is often a good thing. So if you or LAN or anyone else can hang in there because of online or any other support, that is fine. When I started having really down times a few years back, I found such help at a local chapter of a depression support group. I wanted to understand what might be going on in my husband's mind while he was depressed, since he couldn't express it adequately himself. It really did help to hear others tell about how it feels to deal with depression. Of course, it can't heal his depression, or make him feel emotions normally again, but somehow it helped me to cope better. "Any port in a storm..." Golden
