Hand Print Massage

I’m sitting at my In-law’s house writing this post.

A few posts ago I mentioned a little adventure I had with Amanda (Mad Cow) and Renee (Bra Queen).

Well it’s time to tell you what it’s about.

To show my support of depression awareness, a portrait of me was taken showing my “support” i.e. my bra.  Given that one in 5 (that’s 20%) of the population suffers from depression, there really isn’t much awareness of the condition that can kill.  From my own experience, it’s terrifying.  The constant cloud of doom and feeling like everything was grey.  The way your energy is zapped and not being able to “just snap out of it” is horrible.

I was recently talking to a friend and she was feeling just like I was when pregnant.  She wasn’t even aware of the services available.  I don’t think I’ve written downs a bunch of phone numbers so quickly.

So for her sake, every-one’s sake and my own:

I’M SHOWING MY SUPPORT!

Showing my support

Thanks Maree for the awesome photos!

So I now ask you to join in and show your support by either writing a post about depression and adding a photo of you in your support, join the facebook group or leave a comment of support. 

There’s no point keeping depression in the dark.  Bring depression out in the open!
