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.
Im tired of it all, every day my phone rings 14, 15 times a day, bill collectors. Im in an unhappy relationship. I am in constant anguish every day, physically and sometimes mentally. Is this all life has to offer? Really? This is it, huh? Well, I want out. Im done. (not suicidal hint, btw) I have my little glimpses of happiness here and there, but, overall, its a little sunlight that gets in through the drawn blinds. Whats the glue that holds most people together? These seemingly happy people. How did they get that way? Are they just pretending? No, they cant all be. I guess when God had his molding clay out, I was one of the Island of Misfit Toy collection. I want to be one of the pretty ones, the perfectly-abled ones, the successful career versionoh, why bother to go on?

I can definatly understand the "Island of Misfit Toy" collection remarks. Sometimes I feel like I'm behind several steps of living as well. Like I missed that class on what a proper wife should be. What I should be doing. I definatly understand, even though I'm my own unique "misfit" myself. I hope you are able to find some sunlight through those drawn blinds. I hope you are able to answer that phone and if not anything else tell a few bill collectors a piece of your mind. *hugs*

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...

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...
