People have to said to me publish the old words. These is written from a time when I had worked virtually non-stop for 8 years, gone through an exhausting 2 year project, 3 bouts of food poisoning and learned my mother would slowly lose her mind over the next 6 years and die. I drank over a £1000 of red wine during this time. For those of you who are suffering depression I am publishing the rants from those times, so you can feel you are not alone and there is still life at the end of the tunnel. ****************************************************************************** In darkest thought In deepest night Keep your faith Dont give up the fight Believe in yourself There is nothing else Fight the fight If you know it's right When humiliation is your drink And you can't fight back No matter what you think Walk away Come back some day And make them understand When you win It tastes just sweet It maybe hell But you've got them beat Sure throw yourself into the well Let the storm surround your head Let the ringing drive you down But dont give up Keep your feet on the ground And then Your world will open |

Thanks Lee It actually cut up me up a bit to publish these, but I thought others might be going through as I did and it was worth it for that Dave |

Dave, I'm so glad you found it in yourself to share this. Your words are invaluable with wisdom. I'd like to keep this if you don't mind. I felt the smallest of tear begin to well up in my eye as I read it, and then brushed it aside. It is very potent. I would imagine that most have a need for a read like this now and then. It was very kind of you to think of us. Sadie |

Dave, Whoops! It's just me again. I forgot to mark the part that says "to the library". We're off and running now. |
