Sorry it has taken me so long to post but i wanted to say thanks for your post...it's so true you know and that is what sucks sometimes. I have this memory of me and then I have this current version of me that is having trouble coping, feeling depressed and low and kind of pathetic...but it was good to read what you posted and i wanted to say thanks. somedays are easier than others. i am happy i can say that instead of some hours are better than others...take care and thanks again. this is such a helpful site.
