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 used to belong to this group but after my depression kinda took a backseat to my anxiety, I thought it would be best to focus on that aspect of my mental health.
This last week, my depression has come back full swing. My friend has Cystic Fibrosis and she's in the end stages of it. She's only 24 years old and probably has a couple weeks, if that, left to live unless she gets a lung transplant. And even with the lungs, she has a bad heart and would need a new one as well. She's a fighter and always has been but it's so difficult to watch the pain she's experiencing. She just had a feeding tube put yesterday morning because she can't keep any food down. Her lungs are functioning at about 14% right now and I pray for her to be at peace every day.
