            Hi, all -

            You'd expect that relief from depression would feel good,
    wouldn't you? Sometimes it does. But other times, feeling good comes
    *after* our first reaction, which is feeling very depressed, even
    suicidal. Feeling better kicks in later.
             The key word here is "sometimes" - not every time. If it
    happens to you, call your doctor right away. Adjusting the dosage
    might help. And remember: I'm *not* a doctor!
            I've been reading about this sort of thing with anti-
    depressants. And I've seen it happen in life situations, when somebody
    escapes from dreadful living conditions. First they crash. After a
    time, they feel good.
            I have an idea about why this happens. Suppose you're leaning
    against a wall, holding it up. Then somebody moves the wall. You're
    using all your strength to resist something that isn't there any more
    - so you go flying and crash. I don't know if this is how it works, but
    maybe it's a reasonable analogy.
