.....This thread is purely for those who are tough enough to beat this!

No shit, if we, each and every one of us, cannot sort this out for ourselves, then nobody else is going to. I know that saying it never helps but I am going to pull myself together!

I not depressed I've just got no passion for life or for any thing, but I am taking it back! RIGHT FUCKING NOW!

I not going to get old and look back and think *if only I had just done something, anything, to sort it out*

I going to get old and think *fuck me I've made it!*

Join me, and beat the depression, not with med's, not with counselling, not with a website, but with the strength that lies in every one of you. Self-pity will achieve us nothing, what we achieve will be a measure character and commitment, but WE ALL HAVE THE STRENGTH WITHIN US.

Every last one of us....

Sam... those things you mentioned... the meds, the website, etc... are only tools for us to use in our journey toward beating the darkness called depression. It's how we choose to use those tools that defines us. It's when we use these tools and combine them with our inner strength and courage that we can win. I wish you the best of luck in your journey.

I beat it it come back. I don't want to beat it. I don't want to fight it. I dont' want to negotiate with 'it' i don't want to see hear or touch it I want to kill it. Slowly and painfully I want to choke it to death, dismemeber it and feed it to my cat. *stalks out*

    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...
