Just want to say hi to all of you who participate in this forum. This is the first one I've read.
I've been going through past entries for a couple of days and it's given me the chills more than a few times. You tell yourself (and others tell you) that you aren't the only one who feels the way you do, but until you actually have proof.....
I've always had SAD (from my earliest memories), and knew I was somehow different, not just shy. Kind of figured out that there were others when they started airing those Paxil (?) commercials a few years ago, even bought and read a couple of books.
However, I guess it had to take seeing that other people are actually struggling (and suffering) with this has really kicked me in the ass, making me realize that I can probably be coping with it a lot better than I've been.
Thanks to all who've shared and especially to those who seem to really be concerned about helping out fellow SAD strugglers.
