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.
My legs are covered in bruises. I have been so miserable, anxious and weak recently that I have been punching myself to bring release. I've had a dead leg for 3 days since my last attack on myself. I have not self harmed in anyway for 4 months, then the punching starts again.
I'm so annoyed with my weak and pathetic nature but I dont know what to do. I have come to the conclusion that I do not want to take my life anymore but I do seem intent on punishing myself constantly. Leaving here was just one of those punishing actions. I dont what I feel I've done but I seem to believe that I am deserving.

Hi Baz buddy it is so great to see you again...you are my dear friend and you are so worth it. You are a good person but what Niki said is right you have to get to the root of the problem before you can start to heal and feel better. Hurting yourself is not the answer. Feeling empty is not the answer. You know that. You are a smart, talented, caring person. Your family loves you to the end of the earth and back and you need to lean on them, be here and lean on us your DS family, get the therapy you need and reach out. You can do it I know you can. I am here if you need to talk. I know its hard to talk sometimes but sometimes that is what you need to do even if its one word or one sentence you need to do it. A step at a time man, a step at a time.

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
