AN OPEN LETTER TO DEPRESSION

You are getting this letter because you are an important person in my life and I want you to understand more about what I am going through. I know I can be difficult and I'm sorry for that. I know I probably don't need to be sorry, but I am. In fact, I feel guilty for feeling sorry in the first place. Ridiculous, I know. That's how my brain works because I have depression... and yes, my mind is an exhausting place. I want to give you this letter to help you understand a little more about what I am going through, ask for some grace as I work this crap out and to suggest a few ways you can best support me if you are willing..........
