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.
I went to the ER tonight for my depression. I am really going through a hard timeI need more help then myself or my parents can handle. I am so upset and emotional. I don't know what to do anymore. I am absoluletly terrified about so much in life. I am scared that I might cut myself again. I previously cut myself, without the intention of killing myself. It was a way of expressing my feelings. I don't know what else to do. I already have a crisis line to call. I plan on calling them in the morning.
i always suggest people distract themselves when they're thinking of cutting... running, or something physically intense, seems to help the most... but even a fast paced video game or an intense movie can do the trick... but of course sometimes it doesnt help
i hope you find some relief somehow soon, without hurting yourself
*hugs*
I'm terrified, too.
Hugs
What were your experiences like, if you don't mind my asking. Did it help you at all? Did they talk about putting you on a hold?
