What a great analogy for depression and you are so right. It is the loss of hope. And for any loss grieving is healthy - it helps to put things into perspective. This is making me reflect on my journey of the last two or so years and how it's taken me a while to get where I am. Thank you for the perspective.

Oh, and what a great Queen song to choose! And that video is so poignant, too, with excerpts of so many different parts of their career and Freddie's life.
