Fiona –

I agree that depression is a serious issue.

I have been in therapy for a couple years and have found it to be very helpful.  The most important thing with therapy, in my opinion, is that one needs to  be honest.  That is being honest with yourself.  The therapist doesn’t know if you are or not as they only know what you tell them.  I felt a load lifted off my shoulders when I told my therapist about my dressing which led to me opening up about other things.  It also allowed me to admit to myself about having a feminine side.

Depression can be very difficult to deal with.  No one should be afraid to seek help and talk to someone.  While it may be difficult to talk to family or friends there are therapists that can offer help.

thank you for bringing up this topic.

XOXO
