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.

The poor girl. I know it's a painful illness. You're a good friend, just keep asking her if she needs help. Sending you all some virtual hugs

I do not think one persons pain is any greater than anothers. It minimizes our illnesses to think someone else is worse off and we should just be able to strap on those boots and pull our self up and be better. Besides depression I have Lupus, and several other things wrong with me. I wish just once someone would understand the depression side of me and lend me a hand to help me up through the struggle. I mean someone in real life. I get lots of support here.

thanks eff i do ask but she never answeres really so i just hide fives in her butter and pill bottles lol. you do have a point amy. i dont know that its so much using her illness to make me feel better, but more how amazing a person she is. even with all thats going on, she still makes time to listen to a couple chicks ramble. she is a good friend.

I feel so bad for her!! I too have fibro but my parents provide for me and I am pretty sheltered. That woman is a saint!! I too wish I had the money to give to her and make a lot of her worries go away. Keep supporting her as best you can!! She deserves it!

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
