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.
Sometimes it seems like it’s easier to just die than to try and get help. Like my mind is too crazy to salvage. I honestly can’t see a way out of the darkness and what’s really scary is that when I try to communicate this, it’s not heard. So it feels easier to just stop trying.
I want to ask which part of your situation do you feel is hard to communicate? Which part isn't being heard?
The fact that you are depressed is exactly what suggests to me that you are a valuable person. Depressed people tend to be smarter than others (there are statistics.) You think outside the box. You're creative, maybe not in obvious ways. You're deep. You can see things other people can't see. YOU ARE VALUABLE. It's in your name... you're searching for something. Focus on that.
Please hang tight and try to tell SOMEONE. Things can get better. Trust me. I've been there... not exactly where you are, no. I don't know what you're going through. But my own brand of darkness almost swallowed me up and I'm thankful every single day that I didn't kill myself. <3 Sending much love and light your way <3
