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.
Hi... I've been dealing with depression and anxiety for years. I am just so tired of it. Just really exhausted by it. I've been dealing with it since I was seven, and I'm 21 now. I don't want to live another fourteen years like this.
I have been desperately trying to find people in my area who share the same experience, but who still want to live life. Who just want to be happy, who want to enjoy the things that they have in life, who can have fun. Who are trying so hard to just keep things in balance so that they can keep up with the rest of the world.
Even if you're not in my area, I'd still love to be friends. I'm new to the online community, don't really know the ins and outs of "friending" people. Basically, if you can identify with anything I've just said, let me know. I'd love to talk.
Have a good night...

Hi there honey. I'm clinically depressed and I'm positive I have anxiety issues though I've never been diagnosed. Been going on since I can remember. I'd love to be a friend.

Where's New Bedford hun? I've suffered from depression since I was young too, don't remember exactly when or why it started but I was only diagnosed in 2002. I've never had a partner use drugs but one uncle died at 25, the years of abuse and cold turkey gave him a heart attack, and I also have another uncle (his brother) who still does it. Are you separated from him now?

A friend sent this to me..As far as I can see, grief will never truly end.It may become softer overtime, more gentleand some days will feel sharp.But grief will last as long as Love does - ForeverIt's simply the way the absence of your loved onemanifests in your heart. A deep longing accompaniedby the deepest Love some days. The heavy fog mayreturn and the next day, it may recede.Once again, it's...

I have my maxed amount of epidural shots of my cervical DDD....(and no one cares about my lumbar DDD)..... I've done physical therapy, muscle relaxers, Amitriptyline, Nortryptiline, desipramine.....narcotics... So I decided to go to a spine specialist and they have me on Gabapentin. Its been two weeks and it did nothing for my lumbar ever... but it did seem to help my cervical and arm/hand pain...
