Southern Voice Online - Adult film career isn’t to blame

Southern Voice Online

I can totally relate to Barry Rogers' story and appreciate his brother taking the time to write this letter and for SoVo publishing it.

I, too, suffer from depression for most of my life and the condition amplifies life's situations to the point of being overwhelming.

Trust be told, I have never gotten back on my feet after Donna Narducci of Atlanta Pride had me fired from BellSouth in 2001. Since the job market was already crumbling at that time for computer programmers and others, I have never found another good job to replace BellSouth and ended up moving to Florida to depend on family for survival. After two years and a hurricane, it is getting old. I currently started a job paying 1/3 of what I made at BellSouth (and the past 15 years) just being happy to have a steady income and benefits - if not a small income.

There were several times over the last 2 years I considered taking Mr. Rogers' path but something keeps me going. Not having an income or a home is very tough on a person and can drive them to the edge.
