I am not really sure if I have been depressed in the past or maybe I was just so blessed to have so many friends with me along the way (esp. those hard and trying times) and they really made my difficult journey easier and lighter. I praise and thank God for them...When you feel the signs, don't hesitate to talk to God cry out to Him and to someone you are comfortable with. This is indeed a serious problem and the surveys are very alarming. God bless sis :-)
