ABOUT ME:

I've recently recovered from major depression after living with it since boyhood. After I learned to change my inner beliefs about who I was, I gradually found my way through this illness to a productive life. An important strategy I've used to deal with depression is to write about it on my blog, Storied Mind. Of course, the story never really ends, and I am constantly looking for new ideas on how to sustain and enhance the wellness and the balanced life I've found. If you want to reach me, please do not use the message board here but contact me through Storied Mind. Please check out my ebooks, A Mind for Life and Surviving Depression Together
