one of her quotes really speaks to me:

"The greatest disease in the world today is to be nothing to nobody."

When you suffer from depression, ADD and PTSD, you lose a lot of friends and spend a lot of Christmases alone. In a good world, it wouldn't be that way but in this one, disease makes you a social pariah. Especially mental illness, because the ignorant and foolish assume that mental illness is something people choose or a reflection of a bad character.

If you know anyone who is depressed this year, invite them to something and watch their hearts spring to life. It will mean more to them than you can possibly imagine.
