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.
Days can be ok because I can usually try to keep myself busy. But actually the past few days I've slept mostly away. I really was tired though. Exhausted. At least I don't feel so tired anymore. This isn't typical depression for me, I've had that, and it was dealt with with therapy, medication, exercise, writing, and staying busy. I'm not saying it was easy because it was most definitely not easy to get out of a depression. But this is a depression over my ex, and it's not the same. I miss him so much. And I'm mad at myself because I'm the one that ended it. I haven't had an entire good day since December I just don't feel like this feeling will ever go away. We were together 5 years, lived together for 3, we had routines and habits that we did together, we had a life together. I hate my life now.
Letting go is hard, but it's a part of healing and letting your heart be able to move on past the break.
Maybe it's more the grief over the relationship that's got you down. Sleep can help sometimes, and crying. Cry all you can cuz once the tears are dry you can keep going. Big Hugs to you.
