I am not really meant to be here on depnet... I do not seem to have depression any more... it seems to have gone away... I read the other diaries and I do not relate to their feelings and behaviours... I feel like a fraud now... i have no depression... i can not relate... i feel quite cheerful... and it is staying...

well that is all...

Thank you for tolerating me... I hope I have been helpful...

take care

Hi Cate

I'm so happy for you that you are well now and cannot relate to some of our diaries. Despite your wellness, I for one, would like you to still contribute and offer your advice and suuport. You have been a wonderful support for me and I always look forward to hearing from you.

Keep on feeling cheerful - it's wonderful to hear that there is hope for us all. Stay well and thank you for everything.

Regards
Dolly

So your next step along the path of depression is making the transition from one seeking advice to one giving advice.
Your mistaken in assuming we're "tolerating" you, on the contrary, having someone who was in the depths of despair, and seeing how far they've come, is very important on a site such as this as it gives us hope that we too can one day overcome our demons and live life with a continual sense of happiness and achievement!
Well done hun

Cate...according to the Zung/deptest and my overall sense of how I'm doing, I'm not depressed now either, and haven't been for months. Sometimes I have bad days, think a few loony thoughts or whatever, but basically I'm okay, and I too am grateful for the support of awesome deppies such as you!!

Now...imagine if everyone that got well left depnet - the whole thing could turn into one bitchin' miserable hell hole. The fact that you and maybe me and others who have recovered can get on here and offer support and encouragement to others, is what MAKES this place.

You make this place great, and as others have said before me, we look forward to the thoughts you share in our diaries.

Stick around and share a bit of your sunshine once in a while!!

:)
