DEPRESSION

HOWDY, I AM A 46 YEAR OLD MAN WHO HAS ALL THE OUTWARD
TRAPPINGS OF
SUCCESS, NICE CAR , LOVING CHILDREN AND PARTNER ETC
ETC.PERIODICALLY
HOWEVER I AM THROWN INTO A  FIT OF DEPAIR ( SADNESS,
BACKWOOD LOOKING
LONGING,ANXIETY) WHICH I STRUGGLE TO OVERCOME.

ON A MORE POSITIVE NOTE EXERCISE ,HARDWORK, AND OTHER FORMS
OF
DISTRACTION SEEM TO HELP BUT I AM LOOKING FOR MORE LONG
LASTING FORMS
OF THERAPY AND WAYS OF MAINTAINING MY EQUILIBRIUM. I WON'T
BORE YOU
WITH A LONGER INTRO. I LOOK FORWARD TO SPEAKING TO OTHERS
TRAVELLERS
ON THIS DIFFICULT ROAD..

THANKS FOR THE REPLY. HAVING PURCHASED OR BORROWED  ALL OF 
THE USUAL
""SELF HELP FOR THE DEPRESSIVE" TYPE OF 
BOOKS I AM STILL CONVINCED
THAT THEY ALL RELY SOMEWHAT ON A ONE SIZE FITS ALL APPROACH
TO OUR
AILMENT ( THE CANCER RESEARCH SHOP CONTINUES TO  BENEFIT
FROM THIS
ACTIVITY GIVEN THAT IS WHERE MOST OF THEM END UP). THE POINT
IS  I AM
AM NOT LOOKING FOR A PANCEA FOR ALL ILLS " DR BUZZARD,
SNAKE OIL,
TRAVELLING MEDICINE SHOW , "TYPE OF  REMEDY JUST A FEW
SIMPLE LIFE
SKILLS THAT IN THE DESPERATE HOURS CAN BE DRAWN UPON TO GAIN
SOME
RELIEF. TALKING TO MY MUM WAS ALWAYS HELPFULL BUT I HAVE
ALWAYS FOUND
THE   UNGUIDED EXPLORATION INTO POSSIBLE CURES  OVERLY TIME
CONSUMING, IN  SOME CASES EXPENSIVE AND UNLESS RESULTS ARE
QUICKLY
EVIDENT LIKELY TO LEAVE THE EXPLORER( ME ) DISENCHANTED .

ENOUGH OF THE  WAILING.THIS SITE IS SUPPOSED TO BE A TWO WAY
STREET SO
HERE'S MY FEW  PEARLS OF RECYLED WISDOM .NO ALCOHOL ( EVERY
ONE KNOWS
THIS ) NO NON PRESCIPTION DRUGS, LIMITED AMOUNTS OF COFFEE ,
NO
DWELLING ON THE GHOSTS OF THE PAST ( PRESENT OR FUTURE FOR
THAT
MATTER) SOME SEX ( CONSENUAL) , FRIENDS  ( IN ABUNDANCE -NEW
FRIENDS,
OLD FRIENDS ALL FRIENDS BUT NOT STALE FRIENDS ), NEVER  TURN
AN
INVITATION DOWN BECAUSE YOU FEEL DEPRESSED AND NEVER EVER
EVER EXPECT
YOUR NON DEPRESSED FRIENDS TO UNDERSTAND HOW YOU FEEL .
SUPPORT YES
( WHEN THE MOOD TAKES THEM) MAKE ALLOWANCES FOR ( ALWAYS) 
BUT DON'T
GET TO THINKING THAT THEY ARE THERE TO RESOLVE THIS PROBLEM
FOR YOU.
SANITY LIES IN ASSUMING RESPONSIBILTY.I STILL THINK THE
TRUTH IS OUT
THERE...WHOSE GONNA HELP ME LOOK?
