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.
Hi to all. If I had to sum up my life with depression in one word...it would be Battle. Life with depression is a daily battle for me. Every day I have to look for reasons to be happy. Every day I have to try to enjoy those moments that healthy people talk about.
I know I am not alone....but I feel like I am sinking in an ocean. Like this illness is somehow stronger than I am.
I have tried meds, counseling, ECT....you name it. The battle still exists.
I really need to know that there is someone out there who is also battling this illness. I believe that we Can beat it....one day at a time.....together.

It's good that you can enjoy some moments in life, that's more than I can do. You say you've tried meds, what meds are you on now? Are they working? Meds are the only thing that made a difference for me, counseling does nothing for me. Every day I think about suicide. But so far I'm still alive.
Going to go back to Zoloft for a while...it helps for a little while.
Hope u feel better soon. Remember, you are not alone.
