Time Heals Your Heart
We all go through times of sadness and times of joy.

It is also normal to feel blue with a marriage break-up or the loss of a loved one through death.
The problems arise when one becomes entranced in sadness and finds it increasingly difficult to shake it.
This leads to feeling of melancholy and can be emotionally as well as physically exhausting.
Depression acts on sufferers in many ways.
Sleep, appetite, sexual intimacy and energy can all be affected in a big way.
