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.
There are so many people wanting to end their life and all i can say is plaese dont, we've all felt it, thats why we are here on DS.
It can be better, I'm better, it might notast forever, but it feels good right now.
It was only a few weeks ago I felt like I was slidding back, I,ve found the strength from people here, one in particular.
Please just keep talking, all I can say is your life is worth more.
I'm sorry to put this up again but I'm going to anyway;
You. All of you. No exceptions.
You may not think that the world needs you, but it does.
For you are unique, like no-one that has ever been before or will come after.
No-one can speak your words, say your piece,
Smile your smile or shine your light.
No-one an take your place for its yours alone to fill.
If you are not there to shine your light,
Who knows how many travellers will lose their way,
As they pass by your empty place in the darkness

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...
wish I could make you believe it.
I choose to live for my reasons and since I did everyday I wake up I choose life, what a rare joy that is.
Most people go through life without ever thinking about what it means to be alive, we know what it means through all the pain and all the joy.
Every time someone like us walks the earth, understanding others pain, giving help and sympathy and support there are people there that benefit.
I find myself thinking that eventually we all catch the bus and can no longer focus on the time in between. I read a poem once on how will you spend your dash, referring to the dash between your birth date and the day you die inscribed on a grave marker. It was profound and when Im not depressed I do try to live my life to its fullest but at times like this it seems completely pointless. So, now the end of any given day may be the final end for me. Im sorry I cant take your words and create hope within myself, I am sure you wrote them with a heart full of caring but for me and others in my position it is just not possible to embrace them.
