Doug,
There is nothing wrong with asking for help when you need it. You'd go to a doctor if you broke your arm, or had to have treatment for diabetes.Going to a doctor for depression may be the best gift you ever gave yourself! After I had a stroke everyone kept saying, "get up!" "Do something!" ... like I could! Going to a doctor saved my life (hummm, that sounds like I needed a physician, which I did, and who saved my life after the stroke, but it was the pshychiatrist who helped me save my life, which was in serious jeopardy). There's no way I'd be sitting here talking to you were it not for ME finally placing a call.
Roll over, and make a call. Then go unpack those boxes, cuz you'll be feeling much better quickly, and you'll need the stuff that's in the boxes!
You are loved. You've got a huge family here and we want what's best for you to be happy.
Betty
Trouts don't live in ugly places.
A friend is not who knows you the longest, but the one who came and never left your side.
Don't look back, we ain't goin' that way.
