For a lot of people, depression is a temporary emotion that they experience in conjunction with certain events and circumstances in their lives.
But for those who deal with chronic depression, it is a constant presence in their lives. It does not matter if it is a good day or a bad day, or if the weather is sunny or rainy. Because of this, choosing to continue living is a conscious decision that must be made every day.
The average person will never know what it is like to wrestle with this choice every day. I bear this burden, and wanted to let others know that they are not alone. Perhaps if we share this burden, more of us will continue to make "The Choice" a while longer.
