*Disclaimer: This is meant to be lighthearted and to challenge some of my own thoughts about what depression means in my life. Not meant to offend 
My mom sent me a link to a site that creates slogans. You’ve probably seen these – people use slogans as signatures on message boards (as in “Everything’s better with Kelly.”) I figured, what the hell, may as well play around with it. See what slogans it suggests for depression. Here’s some of what it came up with, and my editorial comments.
Yes, I believe we’ve been introduced.
My depression is 3 years old. How old is yours?
Right now, yes, but you’re the crazy one if you think I’m going to adopt this as my slogan.
With what? A scalpel? I’d certainly be willing to give it a shot.
I don’t but I certainly would.
Rules as in takes over? Yes. Rules as in “Depression Rocks!”? Not so much.
It certainly feels like that some days, but I bloody hope that’s not true.
Too late. I think my four different types of medication would be considered “messing with depression.”
If she really wants it, I’d be willing to sell her mine. She certainly has the money.
Um, it’s not contagious. At least I don’t think it is…
This has to be a typo. It should say, “Depression is better with chocolate.”
Is that supposed to be the title of the movie about my life? Because I want it to be called something different.
I suppose this could be interpreted a number of ways, but in general highly insensitive given recent events.
That’s better.
Now you’re talking. I have a dream team. And a ringer on the bench. And fans on the sidelines. And one very enthusiastic cheerleader.
With all that, who needs a slogan?
