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.

Do you see yourself as lost and alone as your screen name says? Why are you alone? I am asking because when I am going through a lot of stuff, I tend to withdraw because I look around and it seems like everyone else's lives are perfect. But as you can see from the posts in this forum, we all have issues.
Yes, some people are mean, but there are some good, kind, helpful, supportive people in the world too. Unfortunately sometimes it takes some effort to find them. But when you do, it makes all the difference in the world - just having someone to talk to about stuff makes it easier to cope.
Do you belong to any groups? If not, try a grief support group or some other group in your area. Google support groups or call local churches. Sometimes they have groups meeting in their buildings. Just don't try to go it alone. We all need people around us to help us through the hard times.
Saying a prayer for you to find hope, peace, joy and some caring people.
