I am wring a book about my diagnosis of reactive depression from an early age, I wonder if anyone out there can give me any insights that have helped you? Thank you

Having someone to talk to about how Im feeling and how my experiences affect me today is extremely helpful. It helps me organize my thoughts and engage my emotions when my mind has been so repressed by trauma throughout the years. I think many people underestimate the great value of being a good listener and just being there. It replaces alot of the loss and pain and lack of belonging Ive experienced through childhood. And when I feel someone is genuinely understanding I feel a weight lifted off me, that weight of silence and despair and not belonging slowly gos. I crave this and it does so much for me. Its repairing. I dont think Im the only one who feels this.
