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.
That said, try to see this in a slightly different light. All this expectation placed on your shoulders, unfair though it may be, is really a very deep compliment. You obviously have earned their sincere respect and admiration, otherwise a slip-up wouldn't be so traumatic in their eyes.
Best of luck in learning to walk that line of doing the best you can while accepting, and forgiving yourself, when mistakes occur. I can't tell you how long it's taken me to understand this simple truth.
