I agree with what the others have said. I’ve been reading your posts for a little bit now and I have never thought you sounded clinically depressed.

Everyone has the right to be blue…or even sad…it doesn’t make you clinically depressed.

Ignore the weirdos and their comments, sweetie. You are a tough cookie and are doing just fine!

BTW, I think you looked pretty in the zoo picture! Don’t hide yourself away!

We all have our off days. You don’t have to apologize for it. – to no one!

I am sure you are a great help and inspiration to many out there. ((Hugs))

I just subscribed to your blog the other day, so I read it in Google Reader. For some reason, it didn’t delete the previous post.
I want to applaud the fact that you were authentic.
Like you said, holidays (and the regular days too) can be crappy. I posted not too long ago about my aversion to Father’s Day.
I have posts about victories in my life, but honestly, it’s the posts where I am painfully authentic about my struggles that minister to others the most.
You encouraged me. It’s always nice to know I’m not alone and I’m not the only single mom out there that has those moments.
So thanks.

Clinical depression? I call it a “I’m a woman and a mom and I’m just feeling a little blue so zip the lip and bring me chocolate cake and no one will get hurt” mood. But that’s just me, ha/ha.

Hang in there! I know holidays can be hard when you’re a single mom. I remember those days well.

Sarah’s right. It’s your blog, cry if you want to. (I sang that when I typed it!)
Blessings on your days!
(ps – you won the drawing on PL – email me your address so I can mail it to you!)

Thanks Beka, Kristen, and Sarah. I’m feeling almost sane again. LOL. I guess I just don’t understand think it’s a bad thing to be unhappy now and then. I snap back pretty quickly (in fact, I’m looking forward to my weekend now). I can’t be happy all the time. I don’t know anyone who can be.

I have often read your posts and thought. Man she seems to have it all together for having gone through some yucky stuff. Granted I do not know all of the details but from the tiny bit I do know, you really seem to have it all together. And you can write whatever you want on your own blog. Don’t try to be careful what you say on our account!

Obviously you’re not depressed! I wouldn’t worry about what one psychotic “Dr.Phil” has to say-I just delete the comments I don’t like

Hahaha! No worries! Those of us who know you know better! If anything you’re the strong sister, I would be the one who would be clinically depressed if it had to be either of us and the sad part is I’ve got no good reason to be that way. p
