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.
I watch videos of cultural celebrations in foreign and wonderful place. Lasers in the air, fireworks in the sky. Thousands of people cheering, dancing... being happy.
I miss how I use to be thrilled and live for these things. I wish I could feel lifted still when I watch videos of spectacular celebrations. Now I just feel robbed... robbed by the evil people who did this to me... treated me horribly and forced me into a depression.
I have faith that I can get back some way, some how... I just dont know if the time is now or if I'm rushing things. I need time to heal but I want to feel good right now.
I push the lies they told me out of my mind but it isn't easy always looking back at the horrible things they've said at times.
I just want to feel better already. To have my full range of emotions and have an optimistic and exciting life. How I use to be... hopefully this time when I get well... I'll be better than before.

Try using your journal to get rid of the feelings you have. Get on your journal and write and write until you feel better. Just start and the feeling will come out.
You can leave it open for others to read and make suggestions or you can close it up for your own privacy. Personally, I write my deepest feeling, then when I am through I delete it as a way of letteing it go. It helps me.
That's a super idea. It's the contemporary version of my having kept a journal for a year and then burning it. I journaled all my anger and resentment for those who betrayed and hurt me, and then I destroyed the pages, as a way of finalizing my misery from that time in my life.
