I've been depressed my entire life, or at least, since age 7. My psychologist says I have double-depression, a specific Social Anxiety Disorder (I'm 49 and only had one girlfriend my entire life; fell in love, and then she died 20 years ago). There isn't one day I don't have suicidal thoughts - not one. This has been going on for 42 years. I hate my life. My dream is to die. That's my only dream. I don't have the courage to commit suicide, so the torture is compounded. Hi. I’ve been depressed my entire life, or at least, since age 7.

Now that is subconscious power, it's not all about being loud, bossy, or in charge. Thanks for this Catherine....

I never felt like I fit into life and certainly never felt "normal." While I can certainly do the mundane things and ADL's we must all face, I unfortunately "dumbed down" to fit in. Got over it eventually, at least to some degree. It's a challenge to balance our creative sides with having to balance a checkbook and scrub the toilet! Thanks for sharing this, Adam Catherine,
