FIRST POST

Hi! Well, I guess for posting under subject of introductions and the subject being first post that lets you all know I'm new.

Well, I was diagnosed with depression back in 2000. My family doesn't really understand it. It took me a while even to understand what I'm going thru. My father believes that if I were to just smile more and think positive thoughts that would make me better.

I was going to a therapist for a while and loved it. Currently i'm unemployed and can't afford to go to one right now. My dad says that if I need help go even though he doesn't approve of it. So here I am getting help my way on my time.
