My self esteem has skyrocketed as a result of what you said and I feel great. This was not the case yesterday when I was reluctantly contemplating asking my doctor to prescribe some antidepressants for me when I see her next Wednesday. I was starting to think that I needed another shot of medication to get me back on track.

Your favorable comments, coupled with the fact that the blog site had in excess of 6,800 unique hits today, lifted my spirits sky high. I hope that you have benefited from giving as much as I have from receiving.

If you continue to drop in on the blog every now and then you will discover, if you have not already, that I am a very sincere and genuine person and speak from the heart and personal experience.

The way I feel now strengthens my belief that much of the problems experienced by sufferers of depression can be overcome by means other than drugs, even though I agree that there are times when medication is needed. This is going to be the thrust of much of my posts in future. Perhaps I shall write my next post on the value of your contribution!

Once again, thank you for making me get back to my normal, bright and cheerful self.

Regards,

John
