Hello JC

Are you blogging out loud to yourself or are you blogging to someone else who you 'see' or 'hear' present with you (not physically present but in your mind)?
If you are blogging to yourself, that is not a serious problem. However, if you are 'seeing' or 'hearing' someone... that is a serious problem. Auditory and Visual Hallucinations are not common symptoms of depression... except when there are psychotic features.

My suggestion is to have a psychiatric evaluation and then follow the directions of the psychiatrist.
