> This may sound like the craziest posting ever, but I wonder if I miss being depressed. I developed GAD last winter and sought treatment for it. The irony is that I can honestly say that one year ago I was more depressed than I am now. It was probably more of dysthymia than depression. I'm not sure what caused it to go away, but it was a part of me. I almost feel a little strange not having the meloncholy and isloating myself from others. I'm sure this sounds ridiculous, but it's what I feel. Anybody else ever experience anything like this? Is this related to the GAD?


I know what you mean! There's something reassuring to me--comfortable's a better word--about feeling terrible about myself, hating myself, being my own worst enemy (and beating everyone else to the punch). That's been most of my life, so it's hard to get used to being "ok."
