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 feel like the best of my life is behind me, and there are a few parts of my life that I can't change, I have tried, and I just can't change the circumstances that are making me unhappy. I have felt sad when others have died, or are sick, as they are needed here on this earth and wonder why it isn't me. Or sometimes, wish it was me. I am alone, I don't have kids that depend on me, or a spouse. I have no purpose, and I just can't shake this feeling. I am pretty good at keeping these feelings to myself, everyone thinks I am happy. I have no one to share this mindset with, no one else would understand. I would never take my own life, I am very spiritual and believe God is in charge of deciding when your time is up. I just cannot understand what he is waiting for with me. Thank you for reading, I just need to get this out in some form.
A negative into a positive but this is easier said than done. Hope to talk soon and take care x
I hope that you find friendship here on DS. Most of us are here because we
understand how hard depression and loneliness can be. Others out there
don't get it...Hope you find some strength here. From me to you: When your light feels like it is going out, I offer you a candle to relight yours. Only mine in kind of a flicker right now, I offer it to you.
