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.
I am not sure what to do. I have had depression, anxiety and panic disorder for years. My son killed himself a little over a month ago. I am terrified of the meds. everything has gotten worse for me of course. I am not sure what I am looking for except maybe someone who understands and that would be willing to talk with me. My ins will not cover therapy ..

Just thought I would join this group now that I am a widower. My wife passed away May 28th. She was "The Wind Beneath My Wings". When I met her, I was a drunken, dope smoking, fighting, hell raising biker. She told me if I could get rid of the inner storm within me, that I could be a blessing to people.

This type grief can only be understood by those who have experienced it.
We do not understand why these things happen, if we did we would do everything and anything we can to see that it doesn't happen but, we can't control the minds of others, even if they are the ones we love.
I am here if you need to talk or vent. I have been here over 5 years, trying to help and encourage others.
