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 hope you are able to answer that phone and if not anything else tell a few bill collectors a piece of your mind. *hugs*

Big hugs to comfort you and positive thoughts sent your way for better days.

Hello, This is my first post. My son passed away 1 1/2 years ago. I'm almost sure it was a suicide, but in any case, it was a drug overdose. I miss him like it was yesterday. The missing him, the guilt, like why couldn't I save him. The having to act like I'm doing so well. The toll on my health. I have epilepsy now. The isolating. The inability to get anything done. I moved six months ago and...

Just letting you know what happened. Wednesday afternoon the site said I was banned. I contacted them via e-mail responses to a spammer I had reported. (Always need to keep the site safe.) I was heartbroken that some would feel I had abandoned them. An hour ago, I got an e from DS that said the banning was an error, so I am back with the many people I care about. Healing hugs to all,...
