Feeling Good
Posted by Cass on June 25, 2001, at 0:33:49I just want everyone to know that I have been through terrible days and months of depression like you, but now I'm feeling great. Things are better. I feel engaged and responsive and interested. It's probably due to a combination of good meds and having found a supportive peer group. I'm hoping that anyone who is in despair feels better. I am just happy to report that I presently have no crisis. Things are fine and I'm wishing the same for you.
Cass, These states we get into are temporary. You can feel this way again..but not if you're dead.

I've reviewed a lot of your post, Cass. You're good people. It's not hard to tell, even over the internet.
In one post you said you were going to church. I remember a quote I heard and repeated in Al-Anon and I still remember it..not easy for me.
It was about God as you understood him.
"Are you listening for thunder..while he softly whispers your name."I don't have any magic words, Cass. None of us do. The act of suicide is any of our personal choices. But it makes me incredibly sad when we let this disease beat us. You are so much more than how you 'perceive' yourself right now.
