I've had depression since I was young. It's not easy to deal with at all, but i'm still trying. Even after high school gradution has almost completely ended my social life, even after my surgery left my stomach numb and my health declining, even after constant kicks in the teeth and painful losses like the one a few months ago.

I'm still trying to fight my way through this, and I really hope you find a way to as well.

I just did everything in my power to kick my own to the curb. The long distance of things in my life tends to get me down. But I feel like I can find the light at the end of the tunnel coming soon. Things are changing for the better in my life and for the people around me. And I want things to be the best they can possibly be for you too. You're my boyfriend and I love you. I'm sorry you have to go through this, and I'm sorry I couldn't do more to help you sooner. But I'm always in your pocket, your computer, ready and willing to talk to you and give you my love and support. You're a great man, Will. Never forget that.

Even though things are hard you always have friends and loved ones to bring you back up when you're down. You'll have Bolt forever and he will do anything for you. As your friend I may be far away but you always have me by your side ready to face whatever is coming together

Hey Roobutt
I'm sorry to hear that you've been dealing with this.
Depression sucks and it can take alot out of ya.
Definitely keep seeing a therapist, and they'll help you out.

You have a strong community of people here to talk with, and don't be afraid to talk to others about it as well.
It sucks and it always will, but the worst thing to do is bottle it up inside.

I know it hurts, Will. Believe me.
I'm glad you're seeing a therapist.
I'm glad you came into my life.
I'm glad when you're around.
I'm glad you're you.
And I'll be glad to be here with open arms when you're ready.

You are loved, Will. Always.

You're still more brave than so many others to admit you feel like this.

We're all here for you. Depression is a horrible thing and can ruin you for months, but no matter how long it takes, you have a family waiting for you when you feel better, and always ready to help in whatever way we can, especially if it includes hugs.
