Hell has nothing over depression

Sometimes, I feel like going thru depression is like going thru emotional hell. It's a feeling that you just can't shake. You can only wait for the mood to pass. Being scared of your own thoughts is the worst thing in the world. I am at work, but barely functioning because I am consumed with my own thoughts. Today is my first therapy session.....I am praying this will help me.

The sessions will help but it will get worse before it gets better. When I was seeking treatment, I fell into a deeper depression but gradually was lifted out of it. The more I talked and got things off my chest, the better I felt. Just hang in there ok. It will get better.

Post # 2 may be right. Not always but sometimes. I am finding that to be true for me. I am trying a new therapy and have dropped lower....for now. I refuse to believe this is all there is. It WILL get better. 4 u...4 me....4 all of us who try.

Really pulling 4 U.

For me, when I started therapy I had to talk about a lot of things in my past that made me angry or hurt me. I had been holding to that anger and hurt for so many years that it turned into depression. My therapist needed me to get to the root of what was causing the pain. The more I talked and the more I dug up certain events was the more depressed I got. Having to face all the painful memories made me more depressed, but as I got it off my chest and as I started to understand the source of my anger, I started to feel better.

    Woke up feeling very emotional and about to clock in at my place of employment. And can't place it all in writing but not been a good experience with my store manager or his boss. Defamation of my character is a concern. I've been losing appetite and weight. Trying to perform at work to keep myself from hospitalization as a result of toxic masculinity.

    I'm feeling down,, and got alot on my mind right now.  I got grief going on, on top my depression and anxiety and now I got to worry about somewhere to live since I can't afford living here since my mom passed.  So many bad things have happened since my mom passed.  One thing after another it seems.  Yesterday our fence fell from a storm that hit, had to call someone to prop it up.  Thank...
