Thank you so much for your lovely words. I think I needed to hear them; it's difficult to keep in mind that things can, and will, get better. Thank you for the reminder.

Hi Peter. Hope you're well.

You seem like a really positive guy. Lately, I've been really struggling with depression, and I was wondering if you have any tips for remainng positive?

Thank you for your advice. I was actually seeing attending counselling sessions at my university, too; unfortunately, you could only have a maximum of four sessions with them, and my final one was last week. I've applied to another counselling service for more long-term treatment, though, and will be having an assessment appointment with them in December. I'm looking forward to it. I was pretty cynical of therapy before seeing the uni therapist, just because I've had pretty crappy experiences with them in the past. But it ended up going well, so I'm feeling optimistic.

I'm certainly not opposed to taking meds either. It's just not really come about yet. But perhaps it's something to think about!

Again, thanks for your advice, and for the offer. <3
