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 don't mind talking about it, I mean I don't really ENJOY it but as long as it helps someone to learn more about it than it's fine. Here is my problem, I hear all the time at school people talkming about injuring themselves like it is a joke. People saying stuff like, "hey where did you get that cut on your arm?" they say something like,"football"
"oh"
" what do you think happened I cut myself. Oh yeah I'm a cutter my life is so horrible oooh no-one loves me." then they laugh. It's not funny and it really hurts me. Should I be offended by it or should I ignore it?

If they are close enough to you for you to confide in don't explain anything to them. They may put your illness out in the open to uncaring people who will taunt you. Are you receiving help? Blessings to you.

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...
