While in the midst of depression, I focused all my attention on the negatives in my life!  I didn't realize it at the time.  But, one in four adults are battling major depression in this country.   Eileen White was one of them.

"No matter how low you get, no matter how down you are---that is help out there! Medications are getting better every day.  Medications work.  There is therapy.  There are groups like the National Alliance on Mental Illness that can point you in the right direction.  There are people willing to listen to you.  But, you need to take the first step and reach out---admit that you need treatment just like you have any physical disorder. Get the help that's out there."

Thanks to Eileen White, I sought help and got it!  It is possible to recover from depression---and begin to love life in spite of it all!
