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*

She did not make it to the celebration of life yesterday or the funeral today. She is very agitated and doesn’t know who anyone is. She has hospice there 24/7. They have upped her morphine and her medication. They are...

Hi, I'm new to the group. I lost my baby sister, June of this year. I was in a grief group, irl, but due to the circumstances surrounding my sister's death, I was looking for something different. I didn't feel comfortable in the group. I kept feeling as though I had to defend her, and my feelings about what happened
