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.
Although I get too that for some medication does not work, but you reaching out here is a good thing. As for the independence, sometimes we need the help and just need to accept it when it's there. Try finding a few things you liked to do before, Take many walks, find a good book, or just write all the thoughts your having down just to get it out. It's like free writing. Say what you want and no one else has to see it then get rid of it so you don't have to keep reliving it. I usually burn mine, but do it safely. I hope you feel better soon and please don't give up so fast. It will pass and if it isn't sometimes we have to put in the extra work and positives of life instead of the negative.
