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 don't know what happened I just know that the past 6 months everything have been going down rather then up. I was doing okay, now I'm anything but okay.
So far I've been able to function.....sort of. But I don't know how long that is going to last. Forget things like cleaning, dishes, food etc but how am I going to get through college like this? How am I going to get through 2 more years of College when I can't sit down and write an assignment because my mind is going in a million directions at one time and i have this devil that is whispering "you're going to fail, you can't do it, you know you can't do it, you failed, you're going to fail again" in my ear.
Forget starting a job. How the fuck am I going to mangage a job? After college or how about on friday. My summerjob. What says I wont have a break down infront of everyone? I need the money, I don't have choice.
I know things may get better again, but what if they don't.
I'm tired of crying

Just try and break it down to baby steps if you have to.. The old KIS principle - keep it simple.. .
It gets a bit hard to know what to write on the devil talking to you as I do hear voices and am on a Antipsychotic . If that is a new symptom best to bring that up to a psychiatrist to get help there.
And I'm sorry I wasn't clear that it's not that I hear an acutal voice but it's just where my mind goes. All I can think is that I'm going to fail.
Didn't mean to be insensitive to those who actually hear voice
thank you for your reply
hugs
I am seeing a therapist but haven't seen her for a month and probably gonna take another month and some more before I can. Which sucks because I need her more than ever.
Thanks for your reply, hope you're doing good
Hope you are feeling a little better. I like what max said about breaking it down into baby steps. Good thoughts your way for feeling better.
