This is the look for Adam. I miss it.

Cute poem @rose petal! Adam melting the screen is definitely a potential hazard.

OT...message for @rose petal from JAK.....

When I cyber adopted you some time back, it was for 2 reasons. #1.....I liked your poetry and posts and #2.....I recognized your brief history dealing with depression and the battle you have fought. I have 2 daughters, both smart and funny with very different interests. The eldest has breezed along on the road to happily ever after.The youngest, the most like me....poet, artist, writer, fanciful, etc. differed from me in that she had pockets of occasional depression that we didn't know how to deal with, so her road was sometimes rocky.

It was a long time, and a last minute runaway bride episode before she found the magic elixir that smoothed out her life. She had experienced no traumatic episodes that brought on her rare bouts of depression, she never missed a day of work and the happy face she presented to the world was 90% geniune. But her family saw the down times and couldn't help.

@ rose petal....part 2

Therapy didn't unearth any dragons. There were several times she withdrew from relationships because she was too nervous to chance making a commitment. Living with the strain of knowing dark days could strike was exhausting for her. I admired her strength and wanted so badly to help her, but as you learned it's something you have to fight alone, even though loved ones are at your side.

She, like many others, fought against the idea of medication.....she felt it would be 'giving in'. I said "honey, I have to live with meds for diabetes, high blood pressure, etc.etc. for the rest of my life....please give meds a try." She did and it was such a blessing, thanks to science, her low spots were evened out and her life is how it was meant to be. Normal ups and downs, but the deep dark days are banished. She fell in love again at 43 and was brave enough to elope.....
She didn't want boxes of unused wedding invitations and unreturnable reception deposits , not to mention the unused wedding dress that hung in my closet for a year till I donated it....to happen again!

She will celebrate her 8th anniversary next month and
as are all celebrations in our family it will be a treat. Her dad and I are taking the whole family for a few days at the beach......seafood orgies of gluttony galore.

I know all stories of dealing with depression don't have happy endings, but depression is a real and devastating disability and in many cases an ongoing battle that must be fought daily. Everyone who fights that battle needs respect and gentle encouragement, not the pushy "why don't you just shrug it off" type of comments....they just don't understand.
Love from JAK ......

Glamberts being awfully quiet...???
