I like that quote Wallace.;}
As the man with no feet, you may have my shoes

Wallace, you wrote "My only regret is that I did not find this place sooner.". I think the same thing. Sometimes I have the impression that I always arrive late to the party, and as Marcel Proust said, that "the true paradises are lost paradises."

That may be true, but it's better to have arrived late then to have never arrived at all.

I agree with you.

Thank you all for confiding in us. You will have my prayers. I have never been through anything like you have.
A friend of mine went through depression and she wrote a poem called 'Black Dog'. Would you like to read it?
Black Dog

Black dog likes to hang around,
Tail tucked in, and nose to ground,
Pulling hearts and hopes down low,
Spreading gloom, where e’er he’d go

Though you may not want him there,
You let him stay, and learn despair,
For he is not a friendly hound,
And with him, joy cannot be found.

How are things with you Wallace?;}

i have gotten depressed many times over the last few years.. i tried to get by on my own, but that always fails. The only way to handle any problem is to turn to God. I have been a born again christian for years and i'm learning everyday to give it to God... Hope you get better soon.

Wallace & Warrior, sorry to hear of your plights.

Warrior, would it be beneficial to maybe try doing some volunteer work, this will have two positives, one you will be feeling useful again, two when you do go for a job interview it will look good that you haven't just been sitting around.
