Lifelike--everyone's responses to your original message have basically said what I would say. I wanted to commiserate with you on one subject: depression and exams! I'm also wading through school right now, facing exams right after Thanksgiving and in the middle of a very severe bout of depression. It's horrible, isn't it? I know that it is likely that I'll feel better after exams are over and that stress has been taken away, but I can't help thinking of how bad I'll feel if I let my depression keep me from doing the best I can on my exams. It's really hard to focus and study and think when I spend 90% of my energy trying not to listen to the voice telling me that I am not good enough to make it and not worth it anyway.
You posted a few days ago. Have you had exams yet? If you're still preparing: Good luck and I'll be thinking about you. I know what you're going through!
