Recently I have had a harder time as my husband of 28 years is having an affair with my best friend's sister (I know sounds like Jerry Springer) anyway I have lost my husband and friends. Everyone was at the lake cabin we always celebrate the 4th on only I was not invited this year. I was heartbroken and it turned me suicidal. I had to do some quick talking to convince myself that I deserve to live and be happy. How do you do it when "friends" let you down. Thanks for all you tireless work. Deb Julie,

I generally get very depressed from October to after Jan 1. I used to get so stressed about how clever I "had" to be with my kids' homemade Halloween costumes, then I never really liked the kinds of food people eat on Thxgiving, and I worry that the gifts I got for people during Dec weren't good enough. I think you have a very good point about it bring abt the BP symptoms. Sheri I’m not good with holidays as well. I generally get very depressed from October to after Jan 1.
