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 have been divorced 3 years ago, My x and I have been off and on, until months ago, I am in a new relationship who lives over 500 miles away, and in the spring is making plans to move with me, I still off and on have thoughts of my x.. miss him, no miss what we had, he is searching to see what else is out there. He says he still loves me, and who nows maybe one day... I would never hold my breath on that now.
I am not happy with my job anymore. I am a really easy going, nice person, and my co workers make jokes about me and my past relationships, and have had me in tears. Even my General Manager behaves like this. I work as a server., My family all live 2 hours away. When I get work off, I hav to fight for it. so I don't get to see my 3 kids to often. and I miss my family. My dad passed away a year on the 13th of this month. I am not happy. I am trying really hard to pull myself out of this, and tell myself that there is always someone worse off then me, and I am greatful for having a job, kids, someone who wants to be with me, etc. but what is wrong with me? Why am I still not happy? I have seen a counsler, but she is retiring this month and she only made me pay 30.00 because I didn't have the money. I've seen her for a few years. My weight has gone up 30 lbs in the last 3 years, from eating out of stress, bordom, etc. I seem to be jealous of others being happy, even though I know who knows if they are or not. I am going crazy. I am tired of feeling this and need some help to get out of the rock bottom.
Thank you for anyone who can help me..

Regarding your love life, if you still have feelings for your ex, then you should think twice before committing to someone else. Sort out your feelings, and be sure before making the next move. I'm sorry about your dad passing away. Just wondering if you've had adequate time to grieve, which is important. Find another counselor or therapist because you need to vent, and I'm sure that will get you on the road to recovery. Remember that your children need you....take care of yourself. *Hugs*

Be assertive toward your co-workers...find a way to let them know that that shits gotta stop without being overly agrressive or timid.
How would you feel if your new boyfriend thought about his X the same way as you do yours? I bet youd hate it. Do the right things and youll be content. Keep chin up.
