Every antidepressant has a possible side effect of making your depression worse. Is that winning the fight or givin...

I remember the moment I walked away from what I thought my dream was--from a mission that was for others--but somehow happened to be centered around me, my glory, and my accomplishments. I remember the feeling of shame, guilt, and disappointment that came over me from losing that title.
