I'm having a real tough time, and I need my friends now.

The black dog of depression has a hold on me, and my prayers feel like they can't even reach the ceiling much less heaven.

all hugs, prayers, and encouragement appreciated.

May that bad black dog be destroyed by...

... the sunshine in your heart!
While it may seem little, but I've known you for many years now, Dot, and also the awesome cleric Bridget. Depression is a complicated and intimidating thing. But please know that you have friends who care lots about you. We are always there for you as best as we can. Don't succumb to that dog. Stare it down. It's just a dog after all. If I can have a certain old gnome send you a sunshine, rainbow and happiness potion, I will shake it from him!

We are there for you, Dot.

Depression, the ugly attribute, those of us striken with is by far the most unfortunate. The dreading, the numbness, the lost, lonely defeated. Unable to care, unable to want, desire everything feels like it is snuffed out like dirt on a campfire. I know it well luv. Your not alone & I am most assuredly here for you. Lots of hugs!

I know the black dog intimately she and I have fought it out many times and that total gray can crush you for a good while.

I will send the prayers and the best wishes and thoughts I can.
I will the same as many of us try to shine a light of care for those that are struggling today and other days.

Be safe

with many hugs and the best thoughts and a puppy tail

to hug is to be and to be is to be hugged

Dealing with depression...

...can pretty be tough. I've really been lucky to have folk be there for me when I was goin' through it. So I'd like to add to what everybody else has already said, and letcha know I'm here for ya too!

{{{extra snuggly huggles}}}

I'm still dumping ....

... hugs out into the "ether" for all those need them - like you do - to pluck them out as needed.

Don't worry about taking too many - I'm 'overflowing' as it is. I've got Bach, and homemade bread about to go/went into the oven, and Bizet, and a mead-like jug of hard cider fermenting away. And, I'm about to tuck into a decorated marinated chick'un seitan patty which should curl my toes.

And I have a (custom made by a dear friend) teddy bear (plushie) backing me.

So if you hear something like a helicopter in the distance, but going "grabbity-grabbity-grabbity...", that's my Hugs Universal Global Service (*) drone coming in, strafing your position with "friendly fire".

Sending lots of...

Sending you lots of E-Huggles and peaceful thoughts as you battle against that A-hole called depression.
Here's an idea, try to capture your depression and give it a makeover then send it over to Tels to get infected with her girly germs.
