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 sit here at night and especially the weekends and i see it happening over and over again. Threads start out as positive and then they turn ugly. it is apparent that there are a lot of people here that need to vent. i don't usually get in the midst since i don't like being bashed by ruthless people that have no regard for anothers feelings. tonight i just needed to say that i feel a lot of people have left due to a select few that seem to live to stir up a " pot of discord". then there are also the loving ones on here that care so much for the hurting and depressed people that so desperately need help. it is because of the loving and caring people here that i choose to stay!!! i hope anyone else that is thinking of leaving will stay here and remember the reason we are here to begin with!! hurting feelings and calling names is childish and serves no purpose. a lot of this board needs to apologize to each other. it would be nice to see this!! we are all in need of each others support. i see it this way. we don't need to agree on all we post, however we can all respect each other. this is just my opinion. i think i have the right to post it here. to all those here, i support you and your right to get well and healthy.

while you and i normally disagree....this time however, i agree with you totally! this needs to stop and i don't understand why ppl have to be that cruel to each other. i stay because of the good ppl i have met here and try my hardest to ignore those that annoy or upset me as that is what adults do to help keep peace. let us all try to be good to each other. please!

I have not been here that long...but i enjoy it...unfortunatly humanity in general is uncaring...so for one to truly care is certainly unusual. Thanks for reminding us.

I agree! That's the whole purpose of this is to help one another and not tear eachother down. I'm glad someone else realizes it too

It's so easy to get drawn into the nastiness - even for good reasons - like trying to stop it. If we could all just resist the urge to continue those threads when they turn nasty, maybe they would sink down on the list and die of their own ugliness.

Yes, it is so depressing when people start yelling and insulting each other, and usually it's because of a simple miunderstanding of what someone was trying to say.

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...
