Being able to say I’ve overcome my nearly 15 years of depression. I did some pretty neat things in and out of work too, but none of them can really compare to finally feeling happy and healthy again.

I learned that if I’m not happy, then nothing else in life will really matter to me, and that my own happiness and health are the most important things that I can have. I always knew this on some abstract intellectual level, but it wasn’t until after I had actually gotten better that I truly, deeply understood it.

Take care of yourselves out there. You’re the most important thing you’ve got.

Congratulations to you!

Would you mind sharing how you overcame it?

Well done, juhatl. That doesn't sound like an easy thing.
