I suffer from chronic clinical depression. I have lived with this condition for most of my life. You can find the symptom list from a simple web search, but it does not really describe what it is truly like to live with this condition.

Most people know what it's like to get depressed. You lose a loved one, go through a breakup, or something of similar magnitude. Most people will get mildly depressed while grieving this loss. Then after a while they find ways to be happy again. Ways to move on with their life. With the passage of time most depression passes and people move on. Not me, or anyone like me.

I can't say for certain when my depression started. Maybe it was when I was a child and was uprooted from everything I knew to move across the country or a few years later having the same thing happen again. Maybe it was when I was a teenager and lost my best friend in a car antecedent. Maybe it was when I lost my first child. Maybe it was when I lost a couple more children. Maybe it was when my grandma died. Maybe it was when my mom died. Maybe it was when I lost my dad just a year later. Maybe it was when I left the mother of my children after 15 years together. Maybe it started long before I can remember and everything I've been through just added to it. Maybe it's just part of who I am.

Rather it is or not. I have learned how to deal with it and keep moving. It's not always easy, but I think it has made me the caring person I am today. So maybe some good came from it after all.

Not if you're sexy and you know it.
