baseball, since you're here, may I ask about your use of Abilify-- as in how you use it and to what effect?

(Apologies to Melusine--, I would answer, but I don't have the experience.)

Partly psych-dynamic therapy which helped me deal with emotional issues (I think depression itself is biological, but emotional issues give it themes and content - for me, extreme suicidality and hopelessness that I will never be cared for - the result of childhood violence and neglect. Partly 12-step groups, which gave me a caring community who've come to my aid whenever I've been really depressed.
