"You tested high for depression in every possible way."
Those words turned my whole world turned upside down. After the shock, the next thing I felt was shame. Because I am a Christian.

Recovery is one day at a time. After nineteen years of one day at a time, I can say a happy and fulfilling life is possible, even if your depressed brain colors everything gray.
