Hi Erika, I'm also new here and not much of a 'talker'. I don't really really like talking to people but I do enjoy keeping a diary and writing things down, so hopefully this idea of the support groups will help me get some feedback in writing.
I can't tell you much other than I became depressed as a teen, it came and went in waves. I've had issues with my body imagine (I'm a bit over weight) that have not helped me.
