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.
During this time also, lean on all the support that you can, family and friends, that is what they are there for..good times and bad.
you have to try to calm your nerves and emotions, it's hard and no medicine is going to override what you are going through right now. see if you can find help with watching the kids. you need to give yourself some rest. naps.
you are stronger than you know and you will get through this and then on the other side is going to be a whole new life. in the meantime, please accept these virtual gentle hugs for some peace and solace from a mother of 4 who has been there.
I am in the BU/D group, as well. There are some great stories of hope and I have made some great friends there. Right now I'm just super depressed and I thought coming here might help. I just feel like I'm losing everything all over again. I don't want to lose my kids, yet I know it's not healthy to hang onto them like I am. I just don't think I can do this anymore. I can't live life like this and be this unhappy no matter how I try to fix it.
