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.
This was written by a friend of mine in high school and still applies to me today. I hope it helps people understand me better:
Silence overwhelms me.
I feel tired and blue.
Colors run together
Into a strange grey hue.
No one to turn to.
No one understands
Someone come and help me.
Someone hold my hand.
Some strong arm come guide my weak
Before this tear runs down my cheek
If to my suffering there is no relief
May DEATH come and claim me.
ONE WHO STANDS ALONE.
Silence overwhelms me.
I feel tired and blue.
Colors run together
Into a strange grey hue.

No one understands
Someone come and help me.
Someone hold my hand.
Some strong arm come guide my weak
Before this tear runs down my cheek
If to my suffering there is no relief
May DEATH come and claim me.
ONE WHO STANDS ALONE.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
A very talented high school student!
Thank you for sharing it.
