You're young and your family is rich. About 90% of the World's population would be eager to trade lives with you Glad you're feeling better though...depression sucks. I remember I used to go into long bouts with it. One day after I had been miserable for about a week and had hit rock bottom, I realized whatever I thought I was depressed about wasn't nearly as bad as feeling miserable about it all the time. That was like a magic moment for me. I literally felt the depression melt off me like butter. To this day I remember the exact place it happened as I was driving down the road, and I've always been able to control it ever since.
