Hi Quintal nice to have you back. I'm 60. I've had remissions and relapses thoughtout my adult life. Now I'm hoping Nardil will get my life up and running again for good. I've never tried it before. Some people say it's unnatural to be happy all the time and that by suffering, we learn. Learn for what purpose? To be sympathetic to others? I know some people who've sailed thought life in a state of apparent total happiness. "High on life" one described it as. But some of these people are deeply understanding of me and my depression. So what's the learning for? For our relationship with God? You could argue that great works of art are produced by suffering. Come on Jackson Pollock I just want you to be happy.! But Raoul Dufy did great works of happy art. So all this suffering to be beautiful, I don't believe. I think it just destroys our lives.
best regards
Fred
