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.
I had to call my sponsor because all I could think about was using again. I cannot seem to be social again or even think positive. I feel so alone. So far in my life, no one has stayed with me. Everyone has always just been around to use me. This really upsets me. I thought that I was a goo person that cares and just wants a friend.I am most depressed when I am alone at night. I need something to keep going for. I think I am rambling so I will end it there.

Your not rambling hon. What you are experiencing is totally normal. Back in my hay day when I quit partying is that the friends I thought I had...were no longer there. Honestly that was a good thing...because i wouldnt have been able to kick the habit as easily as I did. You are a good person and new clean friends will come along. Do you go to AA or anything like that? sorry I see that you have a sponsor. When you feel like this...make sure that you make that call. Drugs kill and they ruin lives. Your life and those around you. Your life means something and you will enjoy it more sober. I promise you that.

I go to my NA meetings. I lost everything already and I do not understand why finding friends is so hard. At first being sober seemed great but now I feel so depressed. I know it is so wrong to want to use but everything seemed better then.

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
