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.
Hey everyone, I've been suffering with pretty bad depression for about 3 years now. Last week i went through the worst episode of my life and felt as if i was drowning and had a major panic attack which led me to take my 'last resort' anti-depressents (i only took two, but i came really close to taking the whole bottle). I really hate feeling like this and it terrifies me when i don't know how to pull myself out and feel safe again. I really don't want to go on anti-depressents unless i have absolutely have to.
Therefore, I was wondering if anyone could give me some advice as to how they deal with depression and things that I can do to help keep me feeling safe and in control.
thanks :)
