Depression Support Group
Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
It doesn't help. Nothing helps anymore.
One of the copng mechanisms that I used until I didnt need it anymore was just letting myself wait. Just resting for awhile and not acting on the depression. Sometimes it felt that I just had to do something to stop the pain but nothing really worked so I learned to wait it out.
Suicide can seem like an option but it really is addressing the wrong problem- we want the pain to stop - not our lives.
Waiting and Breathing may seem too simple but I have learned that feelings pass when you dont feed them with depressing thoughts. I hope this may help a little. I will pray for you tonight.
Firstly, your not alone....,that's what this site is for.
Sometimes all you need, is to vent, or just physically write it down so that it's black and white, right there in front of you.
Hang in there!
You never know what's around the corner, in this sick game, we call life?
