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.
is there a good group on here for a survivor of childhood physical and mental abuse. i'm having a really hard time right now because both those things happened to me and my family swept it under the rug and continues to do so decades later. i'm just supposed to go along with all the bullshit and be a good little soldier and not make any waves. i feel like it is doing me in and i don't really know what to do. i want to have nothing to do with any of them and talking to them never works... it's really hard to cut them all off right now. and yes, i have confronted all of them but they don't listen, just tune me out... the anger is eating me up. i really need to get away from this sick situation but i can't.. i mean, i don't see the way.
i wish the police would have locked up my dad when the abuse was happening. i wish i had my own family and lived far away from them. but i don't.
is anyone else struggling with this? thank you
From what you describe, I am almost sure it will take some intense mental health counseling. It happened in childhood, it was long term, and I agree you need to get away from these abusers. All this can be very complicated and a DS group won't really be much help (my opinion). It's going to take some serious therapy.
Here is a link of all DS Groups with a search feature. Try searching for ABUSE and I hope you find what you are looking for.
