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'm so sorry of being too depressed/fearful of life to leave my bed half the time!! I'll never get better if I keep giving into those feelings and staying in bed this much and watching all the opportunities in life pass me by. I'm gonna have to really drag myself sometimes and go thru pain and push myself in order to get to a better place, where I won't be so depressed, and might really be happy. I'm really scared of how much I give into these feelings and stay in bed. I'm not doing the things I have to do to survive. I can't just roll over and die and "wait" for life to start happening at a pace/in a way I'd prefer. I have to act. Anyway feelin' me? I feel so desperately scared that I won't find the strength to break this, truly mobilize, and start living life--and in my situation, my survival genuinely depends on it. :/
Life is short, and we really shouldn't waste it. Sometime just taking little steps, and celebrating all little achievments can help with motivation, putting pressure on yourself to GET THINGS DONE, NOOOOW only makes everything seem so much further away.
I really relate to you and your situation, i'd be happy to chat when ever you need to :)
