No need to keep quiet for my sake. You are not disturbing me. I was asking out of empathy for you. I was concerned that maybe you have depression. I too have a few down days per month - mostly when I neglect myself (e.g. - not enough sleep, not enough good food, overworked, people stress, etc...).

Actually, I'm glad you do let us know when you have down days. Some folks never communicate sad or angry feelings to others, leading lives of quiet melancholy right up to when they die. I much more worried about friends who don't say when they are feeling down.

Besides seeing you let others know about your down days, I also see many friends wanting to cheer you up. You are blessed to have so many kind and attentive friends. The opposite scares me - a person who feels depressed, requests help from others, and receives no support is somebody I would truly worry about.
