Dear Lexie,

I've had so many similar experiences in the past, and when you're all alone it puts even more responsibility on you to look after your own health and well being. Some part of you has to love you, has to care for you and -- hopefully -- is willing to contradict you, gently, when you feel despairing.

During my alone days, sometimes I put myself to bed like I was little kid, comforting myself when no one else was there. I had to stop the desire to hurt myself and at least believe that it was right to "start again tomorrow," regardless of how I felt.

If your depression is more situational, then you know it will more than likely pass. Be really good to yourself while you're suffering, knowing that things absolutely will change. Be patient with yourself.

Things will get better, Lexie!

Best wishes,

Mark H.
