I am so sorry you are going through this. Depression can be extremely scary and just like livewithintention said: "dark and lonely." We are all here for you and I definitely recommend sharing your thoughts here! It's a safe place to vent, seek guidance, support, etc. You will not feel this way forever, just try and take everything one day at a time and practice various self-help tools everyday! I am here for you if you would like to talk. HUGS

Sorry you are suffering with depression. I have had depression and anxiety since I was a child so I can relate to what you are going through. Yes, it can be a dark and lonely place. Continue to
post on this site and you will find a lot of people who can relate to Are you seeing a doctor and/or a therapist?. If you feel like you need professional help, contact a psychiatrist and they can refer you to a therapist.

It comes and goes, its been happening to me for months. Reaching out to people and talking about things really helps though so you are doing the right thing!

I really appreciate all the love. It's a long story, but someone I was friends with for 2.5 years starting stringing me along...and as a result decided he actually didn't want anything more than a friendship. After all the rejection in my life, it's become a trigger. I deal with these episodes quite often, but this one is particularly bad. :(

have you got any outside help maybe a doctor you speak to about it?
