I am perfectly comfortable talking about it, because I'm not ashamed of it and I'm well medicated, but sometimes other people act so strange when they find out something is "wrong" with you. And for people who are still struggling to come to terms with their conditions, having someone you trusted enough to talk with treat you differently because of it is the last thing you need.<br /><br />And how on god's green earth did you get Claire's nail polish to look so good?

I've been depressed myself for a little while after a bad breakup, but I got over it completely. <br />I have a friend, who for a while suffered from a really bad depression, which did somatize. It was very difficult to be her friend at that time, partially because I am an empathetic person, and I found myself getting depressed from being with her. It was also very difficult because I felt completely powerless to do anything, since she didn't listen to my advice (there were several changes she could make to solve some of problems that were causing depression). But apparently she was listening, because after some time she did make those changes on her own, and got over her depression.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5049173977991321788.post-81980739065510336862010-10-04T12:08:21.266-05:002010-10-04T12:08:21.266-05:00Thanks for posting about this again this year.

I have suffered from depression for years and my mom has over the past few years. It's hard to deal with, but sometimes it helps to know that you're not the only one.<br /><br />Thanks for all the great green swatches too. It's my favorite color, so I'm glad it's used for Depression Awareness because it makes me happy to wear it on my fingers & toes. Last year I wore different greens for the entire month of October. Don't know if I'll do this same on my fingers this year, but I am going to do my toes. Right now I have OPI's Jade Is The New Black on them and it sure does make me happy.auroragypshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07118894253957925086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5049173977991321788.post-3794071603857890082010-10-04T02:36:49.968-05:002010-10-04T02:36:49.968-05:00Depression is so common yet so stigmatized.

Depression seems to be so common, but so misunderstood. I have mild depression, as does my sister, and several of my friends suffer with varying degrees of it. You can't just "get over it" and that seems to make it that much harder to deal with. My family tends to deal with mental illness and depression with pity, and it sure makes a person feel like total crap to be pitied. Bless you for your efforts and on your own journey in life. <br />I am glad green is the chosen color, it's my favorite. And the swatches you posted sure are some beauties! I am in love with all the lime shades and the glitters!SilvrPanthrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14478627124783825518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5049173977991321788.post-32345842016603499732010-10-02T20:58:21.402-05:002010-10-02T20:58:21.402-05:00Thanks for sharing and I love all your greens.

It is also important for those who feel this way to know they are not alone, and that there are methods for dealing with the depression. It does not just pass on its own, so medications, alternative treatments, and therapy are all necessary for people to manage or alleviate their symptoms. To all those who suffer, don't be afraid to talk about it!<br /><br />And thank you for the swatches, as always.
