Hi, you can call me Affectionate. I'm 23 years old, a few days from graduating with my BSW, and have been suffering from depression since I was 11 years old. I've been in treatment for five years and am on medication(yay!), but I still have some rough times. Recently I've been struggling with a lot of depression and hopeless related to my future, and also a lot of guilt, because things in my life are actually pretty great. I just wish my brain would realize that.
