Many years ago, I came across Susan Polis Schutz thru her
greeting cards with BlueMountain Arts.
Much later, I found we had something in common: depression. Everyone is different, but one can relate to
another at many levels. She has written several books on the subject. 
# It's often difficult for those who are lucky enough to have
never experienced what true depression is to imagine a life of complete
hopelessness, emptiness and fear.
# Through my own struggles with depression, I discovered that
knowledge, therapy, medication and education can provide the strength to get
through it in one piece.
# Getting better from depression demands a lifelong
commitment. I've made that commitment for my life's sake and for the sake of
those who love me.
# My own life was filled with so much love and joy that when
depression struck, it was like a prison door slamming shut and I was being
placed in an isolation cell. No one else could possibly be feeling what I was.
I hated my depression and all of its symptoms.
# Spreading the word about depression is my mission. I am
working to build awareness, educate people about the symptoms, and change
public opinion and individual attitudes about depression.
