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.
A week now... a week without Tyrone, a week without Chippy a week of screaming with lack of sound. I am so ready to curl into a dark corner and disappear. I cant seem to keep myself together all by myself. Ive leaned so heavily on 2 of my friends this week that it's stressed them, and God above knows thats the last thing I wanted to do. I just.... I cannot stand the silence because I am toxic to myself. I feel like cutting again, feel like giving up, and feel like Im losing who I was.... I smiled just a couple days ago... what happened to that Jenn?

That is almost like a riddle. Like which came first the chicken or the egg? But I think setting goals for yourself, and living life to the fullest, and taking time to smell the roses along the way is what makes life longer. It is not even the time frame itself but what you do with that time that makes the difference. In a short life and along one. A short life can be riddled by regrets. A long one rests in peace.

fear is what im feeling. fear that this time i cannot fight my way up again. after fighting every day for 10 years... i am tired. this warrior is wounded, and tired. i know i need help

Fear is a normal and human emotion, and has a place in everyone's life. But you can not let fear run or take over or control your life. You need to invision it for what it is. A NORMAL AND HUMAN EMOTION THAT HAS ITS PLACE IN LIFE. But it is not larger then life. And then replace it with another more positive and construtive Normal Emotion which will serve you much better, and of which we have so many to draw from.

Jenn, I am a warrior too and sometimes it gets too much. You have lost a little battle but you will win the war. I hope we may be friends. Amazon female warriors cut off a breast. I'm not prepared to go that far tho' But I will listen if you need an empathetic ear. Hugs to you, brave warrior. xx
