I have often thought about becoming a therapist but have never had the guts to do it, I've always been afraid that it would have a negative effect on my own depression. I do agree though, that a therapist who has personal experience with mental health problems is far more qualified.

Your post is a bit of a kick in the pants for me as I too isolate too much and it does not help with depression. Reading how you are moving forward after such a serious bout inspires me to do more as well.
