Hello friends .... it's been a long time! I have been lurking and missing PT for several months now, and although I am not emotionally *well*, and still have a long way to go yet, I am *back*. I have Jen Luckenbach to thank for that ... when I saw this thread this morning, I was so blown away, I was overflowing with tears, and every emotion possible. I can't tell you, Jen, how much your doing something like this means to me. ((((((HUGS))))))
I think sometimes it takes someone who has been in this very darkest of places, to really understand and help you to pull yourself back to a functioning level. Without going into a lengthy discussion on depressive illnesses, let it suffice to say that it is a very lonely place to be.

While I am still waiting for my new psychiatrist's appointment, which isn't until August 18th .... I hope to be able to post here, but if I don't respond enough or at all to some of your threads, please know that I'm just trying to take it easy for a while.

I appreciate you all so much, and I have missed you. Your continued prayers for me during the coming months, would be very much appreciated. Seeing a doctor of this nature again after so many years, and the thoughts of being *tested* on all sorts of new medications again, is extremely SCARY!!!

Thanks again,
Love,
Kim
