What colleagues said in May…

“Sometimes having external help (not from within your family) is most definitely the best course of action. You should feel proud of yourself for speaking out, not to us but to your doctor.”
“I think you are incredible to come out in the open and share this with us. My personal experiences suffering from depression always seem so much easier when other people share openly.”
