Don't know if anyone remembers me or not... I've been battling depression for months and it's been a struggle so far.

Can't promise to be very active right now, though I'll try to be.

Depression is a struggle. I'm glad you were able to move enough to post again. Maybe that's a step on the way out of depression. How long are you depressed at a time? I used to be depressed for a year or two at a time and then fell into permanent depression in my forties. On medication now I function fine and wonder why I didn't try medication before. And then I remember that in my youth they did not have the panoply of meds they do now. I wish you well on getting out of that pit.
