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.
Hello everyone. I'm new to this. I'm not the one to go on something like this, but I need help...I feel like I have no one left anymore. I have maybe two or three people that I can 100% turn to. Other than that. I feel like every person I come across, thinks they can handle me, but it reality, they can't. Then I'm left all alone to cry and feel miserable. Life sucks...

Thank you both!!❤️ I struggle always opening up sometimes. But at this point, i just need to feel like I always have someone that i can turn to! And hope the best for both of you

thanks to you as well!! i don have friends who suffer with depression or anxiety or bipolar disorder so i often feel like no one understands what i go through and it sucks tremendously

Hello. I am new as well--yours is the first message I've seen. I am so sorry you are feeling so much pain. Do you want to talk about it more?
biaxD05
yeahh it's horrible having no one close from us to talk about it, or talk about it and people turn their backs to us... I'm going through this but trying to get better!

@bip1027 I'll always be here for you!! And @ekhmimi sure I'll talk more about it. it's like ive become a burdon on the few friends that i have because there is always something that is bugging me ans they just can't handle me. Most of them brush it off now and don't even care to listen anymore
ekhmimi
That doesn't sound like a nice situation. Are you in college? Working?
Hearts1530
I am working and am full time in college
bip1027
it sounds like there not friends if they cant be there for u when u need them i hardly have friends more like aquaintances no one really understands the mind of a depressed person like a depressed person
Hearts1530
Exactly!!! but i still dont want to lose them. they mean a lot to me! its just hard when they treat me like crap
ekhmimi
WOW! That is a busy life.

Just to give your friends the benefit of the doubt, if they are starting the semester, too, they may be overwhelmed with their own problems.

i totally understand some of my family is the same way i guess i need to feed them wth a long handed spoon as the saying goes i had friends who couldnt handle the mood swings and the manic episodes so i was left alone and that sucked but i strongly think hat if they were meant to be in mylife and love me as true friends do i would have alot more but its hard to handle fo some people some just dont know how to comfort a person who is sad and in pain and its not their fault maybe you should try to talk to them and get them to understand a little more
ekhmimi
HOWEVER, perhaps it is time to try to find some new friends. Although college can be unforgiving, perhaps there will be a kind new person in a class
