I'm so sorry that things aren't going well for you! There are many of us who care, I know I'm one of them! You can start wherever you want, did something happen today to make it a bad day? ((hugs))

Thank you for caring. Not at all, its just my moods been down for a while now, and it's getting on top of me.

I am one of them, too! I understand this feeling. What are your thoughts when you feel this way?

This is a great place to find caring people. We all understand and know what that feeling is like. We're here to support you. I hope you feel better soon.

To be quite honest, i just don't want to be here anymore.

Are your parents supportive, do they know you're feeling this way? Do you have brothers or sisters?

I care I hope you start feeling beeter soon I am here if you ever need or want to talk

I know what it feels like to not want to be here anymore. When you feel like talking some more, I am always ready to listen. I care about you just like all of us at this site. You won't believe what these people have done for me.

If for no other reason than to protect your loved ones you should share these thoughts with someone. A therapist,doctor or even a crisis line if it gets bad enough. We can provide support and I am happy to do it. But you might need more than what an online support group can offer.

The people that love you want you to be around and I'm sure they would want you to be happy.You deserve a chance at a happy life. Your life is just beginning, that alone makes you very precious to people.I honestly believe that life can be a gift. I think that when the gift is shared with compassion for yourself and others it makes the world a better place. It sounds sappy but it's true.Please do what ever is necessary to be well. And we are always here to care and offer support. Many many warm gentle ((( Hugs ))) to you.

I am so sorry you feel bad! I care too, you sound like you have depression and it might be a good idea to seek medical help if you have not already. This is a great first step, DS is a really good support group and we are very caring. Big hugs, be kind to yourself and take baby steps (break things down into maneable pieces so you don't get overwhelmed). If you ever want to talk feel free to message me.

Hi Jellybean

I understand the feeling of not wanting to be here anymore. It is an awful feeling. I tried meditation and diet and supplements and finally medication helped. Have you been able to get any help? I care, too and hope you feel better soon!

Sometimes I just want people to notice that I need their support and once in a while I break down and tell them what's going on with me. I know, it's hard to feel like you are not getting the support you need. I wish you the best of luck. Remember, you have many loved ones that do care about you and you also have the DS community. We are all here for you.

we all care and want to be here for you, sweetie, just let us know how we can help you.....:)

Hello Jellybean...

You've gotten some lovely replies on here, from people who care and who know how it feels to live with mental illness. I hope you can fight these thoughts and seek the help you fully deserve. I know full well, how it feels to have suicidal thoughts...Please find the strength to reach out if able...You deserve to feel well again...Just like everyone else here...Peace, Love and Lights x

Thank you everyone who has cared enough to reply, it warms my heart knowing that even if the people in my life aren't there for me, all you lovely people are.


I just moved 2 hours away from all my family to move in with my partner. I have been in mental health services since i was 11 and they never made their mind up as to whats wrong with me. Just tried different therapists, psychiatrists n this year, medication. I was tried on abilify, seroquel and sertraline (each separately). None of them worked out for me though. So they were just going to see how i was without the medication again. But they've been useless.

Anyway, moving here has been so overwhelming. I've got no job here, so i have no money. I went to see connexions about what i can do so they're helping me find a job and in the meanwhile are getting me to go look at doing a hospitality and catering course. Somehow the connexions worker knew i wasn't quite right 'up there' and has called me a few times to see how i am and keeps urging me to go to the doctors, which i will, i just haven't had time and i don't know which doctors is a good one as i don't know the area. I might go today/tomorrow but i just won't know what to say anyway. So i haven't seen anyone for 'help' in 1-2 month.

I feel so lonely and out of place. Doesn't help me and my partner are having to live with her parents, who are a bit posh and up themselves and look down on people with mental health issues. So gotta keep on smiling and pretend i'm fine.
