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.
There are times where I feel like I want to cry. Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. I will stare at my wall or out a window or into space and feel nothing. Ill look at Facebook or join a conversation with friends and put LOL or :)... It laugh or smile and I don't feel it. As soon as its not needed my face goes blank...

I feel empty too. Even though I am with family and friends. I met a girl. She make me feel high. She just left me. I am back to my bad mood again

Are you having any physical symptoms along with the depression? Maybe you could have a thyroid, iron, or other vitamin/mineral deficiency. That can have a large effect on our mood. My mother, for example, seriously considered suicide in her 20's but it turned out she was thyroid deficient and after taking some she felt like a new happy woman. She says it was amazing what a difference it made. She and I also take 1 to 2.5 mg of sublingual B12 every day for a quick mood boost.

DEPRESSION, for some of us its a feeling we feel now and then but for some it lasts so long we don't even realize we are depressed.

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...

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...
