Hi sad... so glad you found us. I'm sorry you have had to deal with depression since you were ten... you don't say how old you are now but it doesn't really matter. I often feel that I've been depressed since before I was born (with good reason) and it has taken a lifetime to heal. Starting the CBT program here has helped me grow and heal in leaps and bounds. It's not easy, nor quick... but given a lifetime of depression, a year's work seems worth the effort. The program is actually only 12 weeks long if I remember correctly... but we get to stay for as long as we need to... i've needed to. I hope you will stay and explore the program. Feel free to ask any questions and post often. I look forward to hearing from you.
