I'm fighting a loosing battle.

i've been okay for the last few days but all of a sudden today my depression hit me like a train. I can tell I am loosing this fight and hope is dwindling. I wish it didn't happen but its getting to hard with little support. I feel like the battle is life itself. Something major hasn't happened it just randomly got me. I find myself singing Crawling by linken park to myself tearing up as I do so. Something isn't right I don't know what it is. How can you fight an invisible enemy?

With a Psychiatrist for medication evaluation, a Therapist for Therapy and a support group that understands what you go through as a Transgender. Its a lot to deal with and then adding depression...too much to try and deal with on your own.

Mental/Emotional Illness may be an Invisible Enemy, but there are many ways to fight and treat it.

Take care,

nothing is completely invisible, its just harder to see. have to look in the right places, trace feelings back to their roots, start by pin pointing just when it started and what were you doing or thinking about when it started to hit you, if you can find a cause you can find a cure, take steps to stop it. you dont have to feel bad before you can feel good. thats a given. feeling good is a state of mind just as depression is, so choosing good over bad may be more work but who really wants to feel bad anyway?
