A deeper look @ Sock Girl

I realized that there are tons of things that I have to talk about other then socks.  I do of course speak my opinion to whoever and whenever I feel like it but why stop with the people in my immediate circle? Sometimes there's just a lot more on my mind.  I've always been a writer. I have boxes full of notebooks filled with mindless writing.  If it's there and something pops into my head I'm going to write it down.  This means no napkin, piece of scrap paper or envelope is safe.  I think I actually decided to "go public" with my writing because of the advice of my doctor.  My depression was never something that I wanted to share with anyone.  It was always something that I hid from even those closest to me.  My best friend, co-workers, my ex- fiance, and my family.  Keeping a secret like this for so long starts to tear you apart.  You're hiding a part of you that needs help and if nobody knows you're not going to get it.  How do you heal? Who pushes you to do the things that you should?  After about a week in bed, several days of ignoring phone calls and text messages my cousins wife came to the rescue.  She hadn't talked to me in weeks so she knew something had to be wrong.  Together we started to fix me and she probably saved my life. Well.... with the help of my doctor. So here we are today maybe hoping that I too can save someone or at least find others in the worlds that want to listen to what I have to say.
