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*

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

thanks. I actually told a few bill collectors quite a few choice remarks.

I have a cold, so I am staying at home so I don't get everyone else sick. This isn't what I need right now. This New Years Eve will be my first without my dad (he passed in October). When the clock strikes midnight we will enter a new year. A year where my dad would have turned 80. A year that he will not physically be here.There has been a lot of great things that happened this year, but it is...

I picked up my brother's ashes the other day at the funeral home which is one of the hardest things I've ever had to do and after I was handed the box containing the 4 small urns, the young man had me sign a paper and then told me to have great day. I was stunned and speechless. How about saying something like "I'm so sorry for your loss"?
