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.

Please dont. I know how hard it is to find a reason to live and a reason to be happy ... espically when you are battling the depression. I have and still battle this everyday. But please know that there are things out there that are worth living for. Please trust me on this one. Just hang in there and continue to search for it. Sometimes its just a matter of starting to do things for yourself ... doing what you like to do

I know lifes hard, and sometimes it feels like no one cares or things will never get better. I struggle with this everyday. But weather you realize it or not people do love you and care about you and life is to precious to end it..please be safe and remember your worth living.

deleted_user
I care! Please don't hurt yourself. Instead, call a suicide hotline, 911 or drive yourself to the hospital. A lot of us have been in the same spot you're in right now. Please ask for help!

i feel so alone right now im the only one up in my house and i just wish i had someone to talk to

CandyCane ... I care ... and I know there are others out there who do so as well. I also result to self injury as a way of coping with my emotions and my problems. The thing is that it just numbs everything for a short while, but then eventually hits you like a ton of bricks. That is why it is so important that you find things that make you happy. Are you seeing a therapist?
deleted_user
yes i am seeing one but she had to cancel my meeting this week when i could have really used the meeting i just dont know what to do
deleted_user
Just realized how stupid my reply was. Chocolate?! (It was just what I did last night.) You're obviously going through something intense... Suicide Hotline might be best ... just to talk to someone voice to voice. So sorry you're going through this... I almost cut myself a long time ago. Glad I didn't...but that's a long story. Please don't do anything to yourself... there are people who care about you even if it may not seem that way now.

i do hava a lot of family near me but they are all going through so much that it adds to all of the depression i am feeling and it sucks and im lost and i cant stop crying and i cant sleep and i just need to talk to someone
shootingstar
I hate it when they end up having to cancel. But it does happen. When do you meet with her again? Maybe if you are feeling this low they could squeeze you in for another session this week. I know alot of places would do that
deleted_user

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
