painful elusive
Depression...so mysteriously painful and elusive...
depression pain suffering
Mysteriously and in ways that are totally remote from natural experience, the gray drizzle of horror induced by depression takes on the quality of physical pain.
depression cancer healing
Through the healing process of time-and through medical intervention or hospitalization in many cases-most people survive depression which may be its only blessing; but to the tragic legion who are compelled to destroy themselves there should be no more reproof attached than to the victims of terminal cancer.
depression crush pain
It is hopelessness even more than pain that crushes the soul.
loneliness reading library
Reading - the best state yet to keep absolute loneliness at bay.
depression zero psychics
