Overcome Depression
Hi, I'm Jane. I am 26, and I just graduated recently, and now I'm working in the IT department of a local company as a computer programmer. I was a christian once, but I slid and lost my faith. I stopped going to church about four years ago. I created DepressedJane.com just to journal my thoughts and feelings about depression and my mood sometimes, and post information about depression news and medical information as well. It's not the prettiest thing around, nor do I spent copious amounts of time editing my posts, but I just hope it'll be a information resource for any depression related information.
