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.
Medication VERY often results in a HUGE improvement. DO NOT do anything negative until you are back on it.
Depression/Suicide is VERY serious .. but TREATABLE. You are (obviously) off medication(?) and that explains it all to me. Killing/harming yourself for such a 'simple' reason would be beyond tragic.
Something else you said...if you can take a week off sometime soon.... I was in a bad spot like you many years ago. I also was in that black hole and saw no way out... I was lucky as my sister sensed how bad I was and wouldn't let me "wait til I could get time off"...She got me there then...
If you are feeling that desperate and empty, please go to mental health (or have someone take you.) now...not when you "find" time.
There is still a big taboo as far as depression and mental health, but I found there are alot of people who do find themselves so desperate and in there for many different reasons. There you will have counselors to help you work through things (You will also have others struggling as well) But you will get (or find) what you need.
My thoughts and prayers are with you. YOU are worth making time for you now.
