When I was at my worst, a went to a good friend's house to exchange Christmas presents.

I tried to confide in her that I was depressed.  We'll she just took off on that!  She said a lot, but the thing that made her no longer a friend was her remark,"get a life."  Well, I've had ECT treatment myself, and even though it's effective 85% of the time, I was the unlucky 15%.

She knows I've been hospitalized 3 times in 2008, you'd think she'd "get it"

I'd like to be like her; she feels sad and she goes to the basement and whips up new curtains, joins a walking club, and paints a room.  Well, that doesn't work for  us ,  does it?  Now that I feel better  I could do those things, but not in the state I was in over Christmas and New Year's.
