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.
Life is a constantly daily struggle to survive when you have severe chronic depression..it never lets up. No desire to do the thing you use to like to do; no energy to do the things you need to do..
Some days I don't want to do anything except nothing!
Living has been redefined as merely existing; it's become an obligation requiring my 'presence' strictly for others at the expense of enduring my own misery; a sacrifice I continue to make to 'save' others from this misery..I am no Saint or martyr & I'm certainly not the Son of God..Guess the consensus is that better for one to suffer than many (sigh)..

I am sorry. Please know you are not alone. I hate that this illness does not allow us to see the beautiful things in life.
Be strong and let's hope for brighter days ahead.
Blessings.
You are a survivor, and a warrior. Keep your head up, you belong to this clan.
