So true....
I will echo the sentiments here and add that I get it. I really do. It doesn't matter what the triggers are because they are different for everyone, but anxiety and depression are fucking lying bitches. They make you feel like you are totally worthless and everything you do is shit. They tell us how much we suck, everything we're lacking, everything that is ruined completely just because it isn't perfect. And a lot of us are stuck with them for life. We just have to deal with it as best we can, find the coping mechanisms that work for us and eventually, we can live with it. That's not to say that the darkness ends- I know I have to be on guard 24/7 and watch for the signs that I'm slipping. It is a lifelong battle, but it is so worth overcoming just to prove your brain wrong. You will get through all this shit that is infesting your brain. You've done it before.....you'll do it again. Because you're a fucking champ. I guess the whole point of posting this is to reiterate that you are NOT alone in this and we're all behind you 1,000% while you work through this. Oh and another thing- if you feel up to it, check out the Pessimism and Depression thread. Everyone in there is empathetic, beyond amazing....just generally really wonderful people that offer love and support because they truly know how tough it is. Not every place on the internet is a steaming cesspool full of ignorance. There are little pockets full of awesome here and there and as silly as it sounds, they really do help.

Jeph,
No matter how much we feel we know you through your work, we'll never really be able to be in your shoes. It's shallow to say we understand, since even those of us who've been to the darkest of places will never see your darkness.
But one constant is that there are things that can conquer the darkness - be it meds, love, therapy, whatever. And if there's one thing that a group of supportive people can do, it's help you find what works.
I know you don't like the forums, and I've been around long enough to know why. But I also know that we're not the cesspool that we once were, and the proof is right here, and all around - take a look at the pessimism and depression thread in chatter sometime (this is a good place to start to see what i mean) - it may have been unintentional, but you've created one of the best communities there can be. And you're always welcome, of course.
Thank you for everything, man. And if you want, we're here for you.
Edit: Ninja'd by the little cheese! Well, I'm posting anyway, at least for the link...
