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.
Hi,
Does anyone else have hellish nights where you can't sleep and feel obsessed with your failures and the idea that everyone thinks you're crazy?
Nobody's thinking about you or what you have done today or whether you failed or succeeded at anything at all. Climb into their heads and you'll see things like...
'oh no I missed the latest walking dead episode and I don't think we have it recorded'
'did I remember to send out that work email yesterday?'
'don't forget it's rubbish day tomorrow'
'how will I pay for this week's shopping?'
'is this pain in my guts cancer?'
ie nothing going on in there whatsoever about you. Nobody's thinking about you at all.
