Somehow, it’s still harder to admit to having depression, CHRONIC (on-going) depression, that is managed and mitigated with medications and self-care and diet and all kinds of stuff, but never really goes away… I suffer from depression. No, depression itself is NOT OK… neither is diabetes, cancer, chicken pox, etc.

This is not (just) about educating other’s ignorance. How does it make you feel when I say that? Unitarian Universalist Association of Congregations. The Labyrinth Society: Activities for Kids.
