Hi, I'm new on this site and this program. I have suffered from depression for as long as I can remember, but did not recognize it until about ten years ago when I experienced my first real "life change."
Since then, I have gotten so low at points that the thought of suicide has pervaded my being many times. I started to get scared at the thought of it when I realized I wasn't scared at the thought of it so much any more.
So, in the last ten years, I've had enough "life changes" to last, and I wonder if my depression is causing many of these changes or if the changes are causing my depression. Either way, I want to feel better and hope doing this will help.
