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’ve been feeling extremely depressed today. My fiancé died when I was only 25 years old. 2 years later I meet another man who I fell in love and had a baby with. I broke things off with him bc he was an alcoholic, emotionally abusing me & treating me bad. I was alone for 4 years. Back and forth from therapy, I nearly died bc I was exposed to black toxic mold...
After recovering for 2 years I met a guy on tinder. He was a Dr. and seemed very nice. I didn’t want to go out with him but he convinced me and I thought it would be healthy for me to get out and meet someone new. The first date was amazing. He was respectful and it felt so nice to have someone who liked me. On our second date, we were kissing and one thing led to another (I know it was too soon but it had been 4 years for me) I knew I wanted to be with him but I remember losing consciousness and having moments where I could not remember what happened. I even felt at one moment that my spirit was not inside of my body! I woke up with a very big headache and he said I feel asleep. I do remember wanting and consenting to sex. I do remember moments of it. But I don’t know why I lost consciousness. I spoke to a psychic bc I just couldn’t understand and she said he drugged me. He denied everything and didn’t ever want to talk to me again.
Whats worse is that I seem to have fallen in love with him! I send him several texts, saying that I miss him and he never responds. I know he gets it bc he yells at me every now & then and he calls me names. Can anyone give me some advice please? I’m a mess and severely depressed. I made threats to him that I was going to hurt myself. I even sent him pictures of a girl hurting herself. I feel really bad what has happened. He selpt with me once and now he is gone. I had broken things off with him after the first time bc I knew something was weird but then I called him a few months after wanting to be with him again. I feel really screwed up in my head and I can’t think straight. Can anyone give me some advice?

I got an email from Kohl's that I had a 40% off coupon for today and tomorrow only. It took me about an hour but I placed an order and got some great deals. I have been wanting a new dress. I like dressing up sometimes. My birthday is coming up and I have dinner plans at a nice restaurant. But, honestly, I'm a little out of control again. I went through this in the fall. I bought...

Has anyone else noticed that clearly speaking and doing things intentionally is liberating because it helps combat the feeling of depression and a sense of hopelessness? Let me share a little more: in my experience, when those who have tried to project a hidden agenda that is obviously not aligned with integrity and well-being, it's best to be firm and speak clearly from self-awareness and...

>>he was an alcoholic
Lesson learned.
>>I met a guy on tinder.
online dating is EXTREMELY risky. Lesson learned.
>>I know it was too soon
Enough said.
>> I spoke to a psychic
I figured you probably were drugged and I am NOT a psychic. I hope you don't consult psychics anymore. They tell you the obvious or a lie and take your money.
>> He denied everything and didn’t ever want to talk to me again.
He either did NOT drug you and wants as much distance from you as possible (as I would) OR he DID drug you and wants as much distance from you as possible. Either way ... you need to move on. This relationship went SOUTH.
>>I made threats to him that I was going to hurt myself. I even sent him pictures of a girl hurting herself. I feel really bad what has happened.
You could very easily end up in jail on a stalking charge. Move on.
>>I feel really screwed up in my head and I can’t think straight.
Then work your way out of it, .. talk to a professional, and stop making mistake after mistake.
I am sincerely sorry for the loss of your fiancé. Don't let it make you live so recklessly.
I give you these comments as advice. Seems to me all this ties to the original trauma.
