Every once in a while I'm sitting here reading my Bloglines list and I start to wonder why I bother reading all of those folks on the left hand list over there, other than a morbid fixation on other people's lives, when a post that is so real, so to the point, and so necessary for my sanity comes along and grabs me by the ears. This post is one of those. Depression is a big, hairy, scary and lonely bitch. (Sometimes in more ways than one In more ways than I an count.) If you've ever had a friend that suffers from depression, this is an important thing for you to know.
And before I move on to other things, I need to give a big shout-out to my Friends Who Know How To Deal With Sad People. Yes, you two. The two who came over and brought cookies last night just because I sounded stressed out on the phone. I freakin' love you both to pieces, just so you know. And it helped. A lot. Sometimes you just need to hang out with friends and do nothing, like sit on the kitchen floor and talk, to forget about your troubles for a while. Thanks guys.
