I'm new here too... just found this place this past Friday and I already love it and love the people. You will find that everyone lets you just roll off a vent and reads it and you feel like somebody really listened cause somebody will have posted back and they DO 'get' it.
I look forward to getting to know you and us all helping each other in this great life of depression.

Hi, My nickname is bookgal and I am 32. Today is my first day on this site. I have been on a leave of absence from my job since April because of my depression. I am seeing a psychologist and a psychiatrist and have become totally frustrated with the system. I feel like I have barely improved, if at all.
On the positive side, I am hopeful that something will happen to help my depression. I just think it will be a matter of time. I am willing to try anything. I just wish navigating through all the information and misinformation about depression was easier.
I hope I can help someone else on this board too -- I'm sure we have all been through a lot -- I look forward to talking to people who "get" it.
