Makes Me Think - Today, after years of enduring episodes of major depression, I'm starting to forgive myself. I've seen many psychiatrists and taken different antidepressants, but never seemed to get much better. I've always berated myself for not having enough willpower and not trying hard enough to get better. Recently, I started a medication that has helped me make significant progress. I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders. I feel that there’s hope after all. MMT

Congratulations on your progress! I am also on antidepressants and have lived many, many years hating myself and my life and only now am I beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Trust me, I understand completely because I have been though it, and there is hope!
