She admits that she still doesn’t understand everything about depression and very often becomes frustrated and rebellious because she functions better on meds. But in her words, “For the sake of the people I love, my own sanity and leading a normal life, I monitor and take my meds regularly and have for the moment accepted the fact that I am a depression fighter.” And that is what Depression Fighter is about—choosing to be a fighter in the battle and not a sufferer.ver menos
