I am grateful for your openness and honesty. I have been coping with depression since the late 90's, and I have lived with the pain of depression and the thoughts of reliving that pain through suicide. I believe that sharing can save someone from suicide. Me! The more I share, the less pain I have. The less I share, the more the pressure builds up. I don't know if I can save anyone else, but I do know I can save myself. I’m a new visitor to this site. I am grateful for your openness and honesty.

I appreciate your support and the kind words. I believe in the power of laughter. Even though many tears were shed losing two men to suicide, I will always remember their senses of humor and how they made me laugh. As Jim Sims would say...Giggle AWN (with a Texan type twang) If you are interested in ideas for seated laughter yoga, I encourage you to visit my mentor's site, Carmela Carlyle. www.carmelacarlyle.com I assisted her last summer and took some videos of her teaching classes, specifically, there is a clip of her leading a session with elders in an assisted living facility. You may find the video useful. In case you have not seen it, visit here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-YI4h25K0Gc&feature=player_embedded or see my Laughter Yoga page. Many Ho Ho's and Ha Ha's to you and your Laughter Yoga mates in the UK/Scotland! @ Connie – Thanks girl. :-)

I am passing your website on to a friend of mine who is setting up a support group in our area (North Lanarkshire, Scotland). Your website has incredible reach. I am impressed by the quality and therefore time you have put into. You obviously want to make a difference and you are. Everyone that knows you must be so proud. Most of all, you should be so proud!
