It is amazing how much of a meditation it can be for me. I just focus on the breath. I am so glad to see you post again. I was wondering how you were doing. So glad that you are focusing on you and your recovery. I wish it was a linear journey, but it's like running a hill course, isn't it?

The anxiety has been with me for years, but the depression surfaced with PPD. I think that my family and friends are more understanding now that I have suffered with it. I spoke up to help other moms know they aren't alone. I told my entire family because I am one of the oldest grandchildren. How many other cousins would suffer in silence if they couldn't realize what this was? You are definitely one of these strong voices. Hugs.

But I do think that we also decrease stigma in some people who have never experienced depression. For example, I have many close friends and family who see depression as something a little less mysterious because they know me and I've talked openly about my experiences. And at the very least, they know now that depression is not a character weakness. My friends and family thought the world of me and they still do. I hope that they next time they encounter someone with depression (or find themselves struggling) they will think of me and find it a little less scary - a little less shameful.Susanhttp://twitter.com/learndhappinessnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5283516832715858198.post-55383123418491944672013-06-01T23:26:00.042+01:002013-06-01T23:26:00.042+01:00My goodness, I am so sorry to even come close to c...My goodness, I am so sorry to even come close to causing you the pain I have felt. It may sound weird, but I look at the man I am married to and I hope he does not hurt as I do either. That his heart has not been shattered. And yet, I wonder how it hasn't been broken. How he continues to move. My depression resurfaced last fall. It will never be known whether it was a cause of or an effect from all this. It will alway always be intertwined.

You're right, no one really lets you know that sometimes it sucks, and that's okay. No one tells you that if it it feels wrong, then it's not because you can't adjust, but symptoms of an illness.

During pregnancy people often love to give unsolicitated advice on everything from breastfeeding to diaper rashes and share their stories of motherhood. No one ever says "hey, by the way, this might not be the pure bliss everyone says it is. You might end up feeling like you are actually going crazy." No one prepares you for that.
