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.
My depression has gotten to an all time low in the past few months I'm pretty much just grasping at straws by joining this group thing.As of yesterday I've been diagnosed with mono. I'm not really an emotional person and I've done nothing but cry for the past two days. I already feel so repulsive and gross without being contagious adding to that. The thing that really gets to me is I rarely leave the house as is and the last time I was intimate with someone was well over two years ago so it just seems life is having a laugh at me. How could anyone ever want to be around me when I'm already so repugnant.
I look back now and realize there was nothing inherently wrong with me as a person - I was just hurting so much.
There's nothing wrong with you either....you're in pain (in this case both physiological and psychological) and it's ok to acknowledge that. It was brave to reach out here and I hope you find some support and realize that you're definitely not alone in your feelings.
Take some deep breaths and hang in there <3
