The Frustrations of Depression

A friend of mine shared the following link recently, of 21 (brief) comics that talk about depression. I thought I'd share it here too because depression often affects thyroid patients and I figured a lot of people here would be able to relate to these.

Maybe some of the comics might even be helpful to explain to friends/family who perhaps don't get what it is like or what they are doing when they brush off the symptom.

That is very interesting. I think that thyroid problems has a lot to do with depression, I know for I have lived it now for more than 18 years. I have started using T3 and already feeling a little bit better, a long way to go yet, but hated Levo.

I love it. It has summed me up completely, not only me but all of us.

I enjoyed the bit about yoga. As a Yoga teacher and there are people in my classes with thyroid conditions, this has cheered me up no end, I am always trying to find ways to make the laugh.I have a very strong accent, perhaps it is the way I say it?

Brilliant.
