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.
Still hoping peace will show up in your world!!!!
Please hang in there.....
In essence, my 'cup runeth over'...
For me, I am at the stage where if none of it means anything, if I'd prefer to be dead, then what harm is there (so long as I harm no one) following my own dreams - I mess up, okay I want to die, I succeed, at the moment - okay I want to die.... none of it makes a difference other than I may be a bit happier for bit.
I hope you find happiness.
"I honestly wish voluntary euthanasia was here for those of us who have mental health problems who can't find a cure, because there isn't one. As someone who would be fighting you to be first in that line for the treatment, but also has no choice etc"
I'd be fighting for first place as well.
You also said " what can we do, but find the joy in life that there is? Try your best to write down, to experience and to aspire to finding your own happiness." Kind of hard to do when one day just blends into another and nothing is appealing anymore.
After much soul searching, therapy, meds, and still not finding a glimmer of said happiness, the question remains, why must we continue to exist?
I am just a source of consternation to what little bio family I have because he can't understand the dynamics of my mental distress.
Everyone else I've known is now "too busy" with their own lives to spend even 5 min. chit chatting on the phone.
Yes, there are Christmas Angels all around, but only the blessed and the fighters are visited by them.
I hope you find your own happiness as well.....
You are such a great writer -- and I will continue to believe in the other part of you which keeps you here.
