I start getting antsy around the end of October, because I know she's coming. By the end of November, I want to knock myself out until January. This time of year is tough for me. But this year, at least, like you, better prepared to fight. Waving the fist too, after I rattle yet another pill from the bottle.

You go girl, look at all the support that you have from all your blogging friends. That's more than you had last year. Have you ever tried the special lights they have out there for SAD? I have always wondered whether they worked or not.. BTW- Wrote <a href="http://jennymcb.blogspot.com/2007/12/bragging-rights.html" rel="nofollow">my post</a> today for blogging achievement, you had some tough competition, but my money is on you.

I fight her the only way I know how..and that's with one foot ahead of the other. It helps that I have the grandkids here...they keep me going when I just want to stop. Hang in there...but be kind to yourself as well...naps and bubble baths help. I know Her well,Shelly and she’s a fierce rival.

Depression is a formidable (sp) adversary in our lives and I echo the other commenters in standing beside you during this time. I, too, have experienced depression throughout my life and can relate to your month of loss anniversaries. Mine is August. Although we haven't met in person, yet, I am sending you much compassion, strength, and caring. junemoon Shelly ~ Thank you for sharing your experiences and your strength.

The latest came in September while i was on a two month European trip where I simply couldn't stop crying. I was feeling guilty to be on this trip and having fun instead of mourning my Mothers death in May. Lucky for me I have a wonderful husband who got me through it. Please seriously consider a SAD light, they do work....ciao :) I too have felt “her force” though fortunately for me they were short lived episodes.
