I actually don't think it's strange that some think beautiful people are happier and/or have easier lives. We're conditioned to think that pretty early. No one is immune to suffering, and clinical depression is a disease, not a choice. Also, women are more than twice as likely to suffer from depression than men. Nice, thoughtful post, Jennine.

I saw her story on the news the other day, and I was just shocked. I always think that girls who are so beautiful and successful must live fulfilling lives. Then, something like this happens, and it makes you look at life in a different light, makes you feel thankful for the way your life is, even if it's tiny and seemingly insignificant. At least, that's how I see it. Thanks for posting this. I saw her story on the news the other day, and I was just shocked.

I think it's good to keep an open dialogue about these things so it doesn't feel so taboo and lead a person to feel even more like an outsider/defective/other. I have to agree with a lot of what you said. While everything is personal, finding the right balance of medicine, sleep, diet, and exercise, you can begin to feel vibrant again.
