theatre and I are there already. I'm having a very berry tea with crackers, cheese and cherry tomatoes and she's having a joint with some beer and we're both on really comfy recliners on thick pile carpet. we need some help with the decor if anyone is around??
It might help you to join them, and come to the depression board to gauge people and decide if you want them for friends on DS.
Just in case this particular board adds fuel to the flame and causes you to feel even more like you don't fit in, I don't get help with my depression issues from the depression board itself, but I have met some kind and supportive people through that board who offer advice and compassion away from the public threads.
Let me know if I can help you in any way.

I have severe social anxiety and the ONLY thing that helps besides writing is MEDS. Not one thing more. I notice that each time I get off my medication, I feel worse in social situations.
We are here for you... on any medications?
