Welcome Claire... I think you've absolutely come to the right place. The members here do get what depression does to a person. We know there are no quick fixes. We know that we can't just will ourselves out of it. The Health Educators are professionals who keep us on track and maintain a safe site to work through the pain and find the hope we need to heal. Congratulations for signing up and posting an introduction... this is a huge step. Don't forget to give yourself credit for that. Keep coming back, check in often and let us know what you are thinking about the program... questions, vents, whining... it's all allowed and encouraged :o)
