I had always been the guy that also said "pull your self out of it!" and as a professional psychologist I knew how much a positive mental attitude helps.<br /><br />Yet I still got hit by a (metaphorical) truck.<br /><br />I did pull myself out, but it took a long time and it took help from my wife.<br /><br />I am trying to read all the A to Z blogs, but coming back to the ones I really like.<br />Looking forward to seeing what you do all month!<br /><br />Tim<br /><a href="http://timbrannan.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">The Other Side</a><br /><a href="http://freedomofnonbelief.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">The Freedom of Nonbelief</a>Timothy S.

FOR ME, it's about doing something about them. I have zero patience for whiners. My philosophy is - IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT, FIX IT. So if I were severely depressed, I would seek intervention and medical attention to FIX IT. I'm generally happy in my life because I take the steps necessary to fix my problems. It's those people who love to complain, but then do nothing to change whatever it is they're complaining about, who I have no patience for. YOU are an example of someone who took the measures necessary to heal your depression. THAT is what I admire.Jolie du Prehttp://www.preciousmonsters.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2098833587509288901.post-6756342618786880982012-04-09T11:43:52.260-07:002012-04-09T11:43:52.260-07:00I think Martha had it right!
