HELLO WENDY, I ENJOYED READING YOUR POST AND I LOVE THE PAINTING...I MUST LEARN TO LET GO....THAT IS A BIG DEAL FOR ME. I DONT WANT TO LET GO EVEN WHEN I KNOW I HAVE TO. ANYWAY, I POSTED A COMMENT ABOUT THIS TIME OF YEAR AND INCREASE OF DEPRESSION, I THOUGHT I SENT IT TO YOU, I DONT LIKE SUMMER, DID YOU HAPPEN TO COME ACROSS IT??? I GET SO LOST ON THIS SITE, I HAVE SENT COMMENTS TO OTHERS POSTS AND I GET THEM IN MY INBOX. YOU MIGHT WANT TO CHECK DEBORAH GRAY OR TERRI ROBERTS , I THINK IT WAS ONE OF THEM THAT WROTE THE ARTICLE YOU ARE LOOKING FOR. ANYWAY, I WISH YOU GOOD LUCK, IF I DONT HEAR FROM YOU, ONE OF MY BIG PROBLEMS IS, I GET NO E-MAILS FROM ANYONE...I AM VERY LONELY EVEN THOUGH I AM MARRIED AND I LIVE NEXT DOOR TO MY YOUNGEST DAUGHTER AND HER 2 GIRLS. MY MIDDLE DAUGHTER JUST MOVED DOWN THE ROAD FROM ME...I THINK I CAN BE LONELY IN A ROOM FULL OF PEOPLE. AGAIN, GOOD LUCK. JENNIFER TURNER RJT1963@WEBTV.NET

Hi Jennifer-
I saw your comments, thanks for them. When I'm struggling to stay above the worst of the valley of depression I tend to get very self centered. It's so awful because it makes the cycle even worse, if I push people away then of course they won't want to be bothered with me.

I know what you mean about being lonely in a room full of people. I know that's how I often feel. I think internet groups and forums have probably helped save my life.

HI WENDY, I JUST WANT TO THANK YOU FOR TAKING THE TIME TO READ MY SOMETIMES RAMBLING POSTS. IT HELPS ME TO KNOW THAT SOMEONE FEELS THE SAME AS I DO. RIGHT NOW I,M UNDER A LOT OF STRESS, AND IT MOSTLY HAS TO DO WITH MY HUSBAND. I GET NO SUPPORT OR UNDERSTANDING FROM HIM. IT SEEMS WHEN I AM AT MY WEAKEST AND CAN NOT ARGUE BACK WITH HIM, HE TORMENTS ME WITH HIS NOT SO KIND WORDS. WELL, ANYWAY,I WILL OVER COME AND FEEL BETTER SOON. THANKS FOR WRITING TO ME......JENNIFER

I bought it from an artist (altered diva/Karyn gartel) who sells their works at Etsy..

It's an original so there isn't another one like it.. I'm not sure if she's making prints of it or not. She does sell a variety of similar works
