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.
In case I get banned for what I have just said on another post, incase you dont read it I am putting it up here... Because Gawd Damnit... Im not taking it anymore..
Yep and the longer you freakin tell yourself that the worse off you will be...And I know I sound just like a bitch right now but I surely wish someone would have helped me out like this when I was younger..
Depression sucks hind tit and it takes us places that I wouldnt wish on my very worse enemies (except for about a week at a time everytime I got pissed off at them)..... Ok so yea, depression sucks and I have lived with it longer then Im sure you have even been alive.. I felt the same way as you, no self-esteem, no self-worth.. I scared all my friends away and a lot of family members... I thought nothing of myself and now that I look back at it, I wasted a lot of time cause I was pretty damn hot... But depression wouldnt let me know it, it kept telling me I was worth nothing.. That no one cares.. So yea, let *depression* keep telling you that and you are not worth it and no one cares.. How has that worked for you so far????
Im not going to sugar coat it cause there is no coating to cover up this dreaded disease but I will tell you the truth... Im not going to tell you to pick yourself up by the boot straps and get over yourself. But I will tell you, as long as you keep telling yourself this load of crap the longer your going to be in pain...
Now, as hard as it is, you need to work on your self-esteem and self-worth (and please dont tell me your not worth anything cause I damn well dont want to hear it as I know better, your me back many years ago.. the same me, only Im older and wiser, and lots fatter and wrinklier now).. You need to take one step at a time, baby steps and tell yourself and convince yourself that its true, because it fucking well is, that you are worth it..
You know what the only thing is that normies have over us? Besides money and self- worth and self-respect? Nothing!!!!!!!! And you know why they have selfr-worth and self-esteem? Because they dont have this fucking disease...
And I may get kicked off of here for being rude or what ever and Im sure everyone is in shock that I would speak like this.. (Beastie is off her rocker)... But Gawd damnit...... Listen to me..... You are worth it.. Im worth it..... We all are worth it and its Gawd Damn time we all knew it and admitted it....
I will get off my high horse now and probably be banned but Im not gonna just sit here and let you talk about me.... I mean you that way.. *Beastie leaves in tears*

89FNo energy, just going to do whatever. Sandra, It's hard to move at a certain time in life. You've been in your home forever, at least you'll be able to travel to the beach and enjoy. Oh, we did hear Boris Johnson's tenure ended due to a series of ethics scandals, accusations of dishonesty and a final collapse of government support that forced his recognation. What he didn't do like the...

88FWhat I do like is early morning clouds and then they disappear and the sun comes out. That was it's cooler in the morning. I'm sitting here looking out the window at the hummingbird with the river and dike as a back drop. It's hard to invision ever leaving but I'm also a realist with aging, especially when the luncheon we had with thirty former classmates on Monday. Sandra, we get news of...
Either way, "new" people should be allowed the same say as people who have been here for a long time - I didn't come back to DS to be in a clique. Just trying to get some help with my issues and I probably shouldn't have commented on this post but I felt bad for the other person involved who would read it.
I don't want to offend anyone and I take the point about that person having a private profile. I'm not here to get into any kind of fight and war I just personally felt like this could have been dealt with differently. Obviously I'm in the minority with that opinion and everyone's allowed their own opinion. I don't think I said anything destructive and I don't want to start an argument.
Of COURSE we're here to help one another; I really don't think we need reminding about that just because you have a different opinion to us. This is an amazing site, offering incredible support.
This all started because Beastie made an impassioned plea to someone out of concern and love. That's NOT drama.
I've been struggling really hard lately with this "I'm no good, no one cares, dot dot dot" crap lately...alternating with " I'm just as good as everyone else" so often it makes my head spin like Linda Blair.
Thank you 4 your rant......I SO NEEDED it today!
I'm with the group leaders; I don't see anything in this that would land you in any trouble. And honestly, I still think this has gotten fewer replies than it deserves.
Because beastie...your point is compelling, and frankly, it's right. It's tough love, yes, but it's so, so true. I think it's hard for a lot of us because the concept of baby steps is hard to accept and we'd rather feel better NOW. But the truth is magic bullets do not exist (if they did there would be no need for sites like this one), and finding your way back is a journey.
I think we can all find our way back eventually.
