Survivor of Depression..........by Susan
It feels good to consider myself a survivor. It has taken a long time to feel this way but now I do and I want to spread the word that you too can reach the point where you feel like a survivor of depression.
Yes, the beast still rears it's angry head from time to time, but I've learned the methods that work best for me to continue on without too much disturbance from the depression. You too can learn to be a survivor of depression.
According to one definition of the word survivor, it means someone with great power of endurance, will, and determination to overcome difficulties. We can all develop these attributes by taking little steps to help ourselves feel better. Learn what healthy activity makes you feel better, even for a little while. Then, continue doing that as often as you can.
I'd like to leave you with one of my favorite things to do when I feel down.....go outside and enjoy the daylight and fresh air. Happy Earth Day!

Hi there I am a 25 yr old student studying to become a teacher. I suffered postpartum depression while I was pregnant , and severly after I stopped nursing my 2nd son. I then started ready books about depression and relized that this disease is so commom yet nobosy wants to talk about it. So I am now writing a report about depression in woman to also help open so many eyes so that hopefully thay will not do something drastic. I would love to ask you some questions about your life? Expecially becasue your a little older, youve seen a lot and sounds like you had to beat this quite a few times. If you are willing please e-mail me back. Thanks so much. Teya jtgberry@msn.com
