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.
today is the 8 month anniversary of my rape, and i'm struggling today, i feel suicidal, i feel like cutting, i am stressed beyond what i can handle, i am having panic attacks continuously, and if i call the crisis line, they'll tell me to go to the hospital, and i don't wanna end up in the hospital, cuz i have been hospitalized 5 times for my PTSD, major depression and other issues i have.

Pain is inevitable in life, but suffering is optional...
do you have orange, cinnamon or vanilla home? Any other favorite scent? find it and breathe it for 1 more minute.
what is your favorite music, put it on and listen, just one song.
what do you like to do the most? is there any place or time you can make devoting this activity?
Other than that, hang tight, one day at a time!
I wish you peace and comfort. Hugs for you
I just want to say, try not to think about it, don't dwell. You cannot change it...but you can be strong.
Give yourself time to heal....do something that requires concentration and when tomorrow comes, give yourself a hug, because you made it through.
I wish you peace in getting through this day, remember to breathe easy. This too shall pass! {{{hugs}}}
