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.
What Im talking about is the realisation that I am now actually an adult.
Yeah, I know, Im 30 and this dawns on me.
Only because I have just got back from walking the dog where I met a man called Gary and his Boxer Boris. We had the most innane conversation known to man. All very much my pink half of the drainpipe. It involved weather (shock!) Holidays(Gasp!) and the clincher, turtles.
Somehow those things are linked but not in an obvious way such as the weather on holiday was good enough to watch turtles on the beach.
I dont want to be an adult if it involves this amount of pointless chit chat. I can talk toot with the best of em, but christ on a bike! Where is the imagination?

cap'n crunch with crunch berries is the jam!!
The saddest thing is I didn't even realise I was joining in until after the event
Ha! Think again. I just lived longer, so far.
Get yourself a rabbi. Acquire a friend. Evaluate everything favorably.
My 12 step sponsor gave me that. I disrespected it for a long time. I don't any more. If you were to try it, you might like it. As in all things, we can take what we like, and leave the rest. Namaste!
Those conversations are the worst, next time when you realise start acting like a crazy person. They run for the hills.
I guess the interaction wasn't totally pointless. It demonstrated maturity to listen and respon accordingly and I was at no point hit with anxiety.
I just wish people would sometimes stop the dance of polite conversation and have a proper chat. I was always told by my therapist to be more open and talk more, i guess i didnt understand what he meant
