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.
It is obviously if you don't like someone on here, that person becomes a target, so why stay? This place is not at all what it was when I first started. There are some horribly mean people on here, and I am finding this site just so unhealthy anymore. I just don't know. Who needs the stress of DS?

ohhhhhhh :( please stay xx

I'm inclined to agree with you to be honest.

Its when people come together to ignore the bad influences that the site is a good one. You get out of it whats put in. Stay if you believe in those of us with common sense. Leave if its too painful
sja
I hate to say it, and toocool, I really think you are a sweet person, but what happened yesterday to Always was uncalled for. I don't agree with what she said, but I just don't understand why people can't let shit go.
deleted_user
stay, we want you here, i agree with you on the stress.
deleted_user
I understand how you feel sja, but on the other hand, you have many friends here who you will miss and vice versa. How about sticking to your friends through hugs and messages when things get too dramatic on the boards? That's what I do. :o)
deleted_user
yeah but that crap with always...she was messaging me saying she was feeling suicidal told me and a few other members she'd cut herself pretty bad. NO ONE should be made to feel like that over people they haven't even met! I think honestly that the same people who bullied her are allowed to run around on here with free reign is completely out of order. Yeah she said some stupid things but come on, two sides involved.
deleted_user
Because they can't learn to forgive and they thrive on drama IMO !
deleted_user
OH and I think you should stay sweetie !
deleted_user
I understand how you feel, but pplease stay! there are people are on this site that come here for the friends and would miss you terribly!

You are 100 percent right, arche. I kill myself trying to be nice to that group, having personally been attacked by them, and I keep asking myself, "why". The answer is, I don't want to be attacked myself again. It is not as simple as ignoring the bad. Some people just wont be ignored.
deleted_user
Hon, don't stay for the trolls, but..don't go... for the good people?!?xx
deleted_user
yeah and I'm not being funny but who's to blame? DS are quite happy to kick one party but not another who nine times out of ten provoke the argument and I know what you mean I've had them turn on me as well but I just don't give them the satisfaction. It just makes me sick that DS have been so one-sided over this.
deleted_user
I would truly miss you sja you have been a good friend to me and have given me so much support and kindness but I do understand how you feel HUGS hunn
deleted_user
I agree with arche and jana on this one. Put both sides together and there is the answer. You have lots of friends here. I get discouraged here as well, and I spend that time behind the scenes with hugs and pm. I come and answer the threads from those who need support or threads I find lift my spirits,ect. You can do the same.

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
