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 am so tired of feeling depressed and anxious. I have been on a gradual decline for about the last month and do not feel a whole lot better. I am just so frustrated, and don't want to die. I want to live and I want to feel happy. My husband has been gone two out of three months due to the needs of the ARMY and my job sucks. It's dreary outside and the Holidays are here. I have so much to be thankful for and pray to God all the time to give me strenght to survivie another day. I just feel soo tired and want to cry every two seconds. I am kinda one of those people who want to be a guinnie pig to different types of treatment, becuase if it can make me and others better for longer then lets try it. I have suffered from these conditions since I was 15 and am now 35. Physicall I just have no energy and no desire to do anything but get in bed and sleep (which I have forced myself not to do) or to sit on the couch all day and try to turn my thoughts off (which I have been doing). I don't want to see anyone, I just want to hide from the world. I really want my husband so I can just have a hug and have him tell me better days are comming. I miss him so much. Uuuggghh. On top of that he is leaving to Iraq next summer and even though that is a few months off I am already scared to death and this adds only, you guessed it, more anxiety. I really don't have much of an appetite but force myself to eat something regardless of how small. Life just sucks right now. Please pray for me that I feel stronger soon. Thank you so much!

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...

Has anyone tried these supplements? Do they give MGers more quality of life by improving memory and overall well being?Thanks!Barbel
Yes, eat something. Even if it's just a tiny bit. You need your strength. I will pray for you also, your now in my prayers.
Try to do something for yourself today. Maybe get out of the house for a short walk. It does wonders for me. I force myself but I always feel better. Maybe take a bubble bath or go to the store for new scenerie. Wishing good thoughts for you.

1)something you don't want to do (like get out of bed);
2)something to benefit someone else
3)something to benefit yourself (like get out of bed.
So just by merely getting out of bed you're 2/3 of the way to a productive day!Peace.
