I’m so out of it nowadays. I didn’t carefully read your original comment. I wish your sister the best in recovering from her depression. You are wise to keep an eye on her.
It wasn’t my sister, but my sister’s friend. My sister is severely depressed, however, so we’re keeping an eye on them. Thanks for your support.
Let me know if in anyway I can help you.
Thank you. Updated my resources page. Love you, too. Just read that Cassandra Stout lost her sister to suicide yesterday. Heartbroken.
Thanks. Updated my resources, too, thanks to Hufsa’s post.
I am so sorry, Cassandra. My heart goes out to you and your family. I cannot imagine the heartbreak of losing your sister to depression.
Thanks, Kitt – I retweeted this immediately, of course….love you!!!!!!!???
Great advice.
My sister’s friend just committed suicide yesterday. This is a timely and useful post. Thanks for reblogging it, Kitt.
