good days are possible

For the past few months I have been suffering from depression. This has developed due to the stress of being sick and losing my mother and grandmother to disease. For the past few months I had been in denial of my depression. Every day events became ti difficult for me to do, I was sleeping all the time and not eating enough to get daily nutrition. Well about two weeks ago I finally game to this realization that I did have a problem and what I have been feeling is not normal. I went tihe doctor and was placed on some medication. For the past few days I have begun to feel better. The medication is in addition to seeing a social worker each week. I have realized that feeling sad all the time in not normal. Even though I will have challenges I am now ready to take them head on. I also want to mention if it was not for a certain friend I might not have been in the same place today. I thank her for always being there for me and never giving up hope. For anyone that thinks that people choose to feel like this this this is so far frpm the truth. This is a terrible sickness that goes furthur than you can imagine. For anyone who might be giving up hope always remember that there is help. The only think that I do regret is that It took me so long to realize that I needed hope.
