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.
Many years ago I broke up with my high school sweetheart after a stupid fight, and we went our seperate ways. She was my first love, and me hers. Later I regreted it for many years, adding significantly to my depression. I composed this poem tonight to express the sentiments of loss I had through the years, dedicated to her.
My First Love
The joy of the first kiss
The pain of a life miss
In the dark of night
I try to forget with all my might
But I still cant forget you in my
mind's sight
Memories of you imbedded in my mind
They wont go away, they are so unkind
Many years later, are reminders of
permanent mistakes
Back then who could've known of the high
stakes
Today it all seems a dream
Yet I know it is all part of lifes stream
What I've always wondered is what could've
been
Had I not kicked you out of my life
And instead asked you to be my wife
My first love..

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
When you let go of what could have been, you will notice a difference.
Coulda, shoulda, woulda, is likely the harder hurdle for anyone to get over.
