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.
this has been a rough few months. Everyone yelling, My mom being on my case about missing work, trying to turn in work online, being stuck at home, and i'm dealing with a breakup. I have been so depressed that I have been posting poems on instagram about breakups and depression. I don't know how I am going to survive the rest of this quarantine. (i wrote a lot more but i don't remember what i wrote the first time, it got deleted.)

AshMarie - you take it one day at a time. It is trite but true. When I am in my depresseive phase, I concentrate on just making it alive from one day to another. Sit down and make a list each day of what you want to accomplish and cross off items as you complete a task. That will give you a list of accomplishments each day. Are you seeing a therapist? Are you on any medications?

I’m about to go through a breakup up too and I’m already suffering like it happened it’s just being prolonged. You are NOT alone. Some days are so hard. Like the above stated take it one day at a time. I’m trying to find a hobby that I like but it’s hard since I feel so unmotivated but if you get started on something you like it’ll probably help you get more motivated to completing it or working on it, it’ll keep your mind off of it for a little. One day at a time. I know it hurts

Sorry to hear that. I believe that there is a time for everything and sometimes time is needed to just take care of yourself. Self-reflect, cope, grieve, do whatever you need to do get through this time. Don't over think hun. You are an amazing person and you are strong. Take it one day at a time. All the best to you.

Makes sense Bobatea and just note the quarantine accentuates existing problems or issues in relationships. You can monitor work or other commitments as you see fit. .
