id like to apologize first, then say thank you...

[LastKnight]

to everyone here... its probably overdue, but better late than never.

over the last few months Ive brought plenty of non-political personal problems to this board in the form of rants and what not, and i dont want to burden anyone or bring down the atmosphere of this place. for this i am sorry.

but, also, i would like to say thank you to everyone here for their support of me, i try to keep a sense of humor about me, but sometimes i cant. Ive had bouts with depression, soul searching gone bad, faith problems, and more. I'm still tryin to work out most of these things but i dont think id be 'here' without the support of everyone on this board thats put up with me. it sounds stupid, but i guess you guys are family now.

thank you everyone

oh, BTW, this doesn't mean I'm gonna stop bitching about my problems :evilgrin:

2. We all rant

I don't hold it against you. I think to a certain extent that's why the DU Lounge is in here for. :)

3. Given how cynical how I about politics these days

I spend vast quantities of posts here venting and self-analyzing. Some may think I'm a bit :crazy: but I find it therapeutic enough to keep me waking up every morning despite these multitudes of assorted junk in my life. So don't feel bad. There's many of us.

4. I hear you

I suffer from depression myself (actually the big three, adult ADD, partial depression, and occaisional major onset clinical depression). Its not much fun. But as long as you realize that it is not your own doing or anything focused on you and that you have people out there willing to help you through it, it is possible to get though it.

I find that fighting the depression actually axasterbates it. Instead I recognise it for what it is and let it wash over me. It passes in time and recognition of it as a chemical thing allows me to keep from turning in on myself.

8. Nice thoughts, LK...

We all hit some turbulence now and then -- no shame in it. Given the way things are going in the world, I'd be concerned if you *weren't* down a bit.

Hang in there, and keep on with your journey -- :toast:
