[QUOTE="pigless in VA, post: 710318, member: 11832"] That was very well said, Copa. Fao, you've had way too many changes in your life in a short period of time. I also did the get married, moved and had a baby all in the same year. It was a terribly stressful year. When you are young like you are, even getting married can cause you to lose friends. Your single friends stop wanting to hang out. Then you have a baby. I lost every friend I had when Ferb was born. Then you move and everything changes. All these changes can make you feel discouraged and out of place. Top it off with a small, demanding, active little guy and you feel like you're drowning in your own life. But you do have power. You have the power to decide it will be better. You can push yourself to make small changes to improve your own mental health. I think depression as an enemy that I have to actively fight. I don't want to but my survival depends on it. By extension, my children depend on me and need me to fight it and not give up. [/QUOTE]
