Hey everyone,

I haven't been on the boards in a while, mostly because I just don't seem to have to time, plus I've been going through a rough time lately, and I felt kind of stupid because I was on here a few weeks ago saying that life was great and you really could recover from depression. Now I'm not too sure about that. It seems to me that the "higher" you go the harder you fall.

Hey don't be so hard on yourself. I think everybody goes thru high times and low times. It's the natural eb and flow of life. You've reached that natural high before and things will swing that way again. Hope you feel better soon.

I know what you mean.
I do not know if recovery is possible for me.
But in my support group, I have seen that recovery is possible for some

It is very hard to appreciate the good times when you have felt bad for an extended period of time.
But I think it is still good that you have felt better.
It shows you that it is possible.
Is it possible to get in a mind set where you accept that there are going to be bad time periods and time periods that are not as bad.
Then just make it a goal to work toward more good days?
