Depression just doubles problems

I am going through so much at the moment, so life hands me depression, anxiety, ptsd, loneliness all at the same time at the time when I need all that shit the least (as if there is ever a good time). I think it will all disapear with hard work and hope but for now I will have to grin and bear it. 


This is a great site, but I can´t help but think it has gone backwards a bit, it used to have the chat feature on it where you could speak live to other members, this was around 10 years ago, I wonder why they stopped it as lots of us found that really useful. 


Thanks for reading.

You are right RIch..... The 'new' DS seems to be lacking for sure...... There is a chat feature on FB if you want to talk to people directly..... Big hug... xo

I’m with you brother. Let me know if you need someone to listen. I know first hand how crippling this is.

I one they also use to use that chat and it was better back then. I feel like it use to be easier to just see everyone post and hugs and stuff. I don’t get much support here now. But do journal more for me. I hope it improves for you. I know it’s a challenge.
