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.
Before you start i know i posted this in off topic, i dont mean to spam but the other one isnt listed and probly wont be read much.
You know, none of you will know me, i havent been very active in a year and a half, but i joined DS when i was 16, and i decided to read over my hugbook from start to finish because i think it explains alot as i slowly evolved into who i am today. Two months from now ill be turning 20 and I just look back at everything this sitee tracks
Hugbooks and messages, i have read through my entire sent box recently too, its crazy how much a person can change and you will never realize it. alot of 16 and 17 your olds think they are perfect the way they are, they may have the ability to be perfect but they lack the experience and frame of sufferance to see what they are missing.
None of my friends are here anymore and i havent had a "hug" in almost 5 months. I am past the point of needing help, i can stay to try to help others, but like i tried to do when i was 16 i might not have been perfect about what i tried to do, i wouldnt want to re read the logs in 5 years and say damn, when i was 20 i thought i had things figured out.
I know we are always evolving but some of the things you do here have an impact on real people. I have come in contact with Legit suicidal people w people on here and you feel like their life is in your hands trying to explain to them why they should live which is never an easy task
I know i probly wasnt ready at 17 to take on that type of responsibility and at 20 i dont even know if i am ready for that now.
So thats where my mind is at on DS wonder sicne my friends arent around anymore what really keeps me logging in once every 2-3 months.

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
Please, never feel like you are responsible for the life of another here. If you encounter a person who is very low and you wish to help that is wonderful, but in the end each person is responsible for their own actions!
Gentle hugs, and off to give you a hug!
