Re: Chronic Depression -

Thank you for the kind words.
But I disagree about others finding ways to cope with their depression. I'm sure there are people out there who suffer from depression who have to find ways to cope because they'll never get through it otherwise. But I know people who don't have to deal with depression, they just deal with their emotions which are two totally different concepts. This is what I mean when I say I feel like people don't understand. Some people just are depressed. Some people suffer from depression for a few years. Some people are chronically diagnosed. Those who are chronically diagnosed cannot find a cure, only a coping mechanism. Those who are dealing with it for a few years or who experience feelings of depression occasionally simply cope with it for the time being, but then no longer have that chemical imbalance. I guess it doesn't really make sense... it does in my mind though.
