Thank you for publishing this. The mere notion that there's other people dealing with similar problems helps easing the pain, maybe because one feels understood for a change, to some extent at least. In fact, I found your piece so valuable that I created an offline copy to keep.
And I think all the reactions in this thread are just substitutional for a multitude of readers; you never know how many lives you have actually touched. Even writing this ridicilous comment needed to be overcome because depression feels like such a shameful thing to admit.
