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.

A little over a week ago, I OD'd. No worries, it did nothing and I was fine. In the process of everything though I hurt two people I deeply care about. They have not spoken to me since.
All day that day I was popping pills and did so over an 8 hour period. When I told one of these friends what I had done, she called for help. I ran, literally. Got in my car and took off before help arrived. Plan failed they were waiting for me when I got back.
However that is where I made many bad choices. I lied. I told them I was not suicidal, I told them I had only taken 8 when I had taken 30. I told them my friend had her own issues trying to defer the seriousness of the situation.
I was given one hour to get my kids to their dads and myself to an ER. When I got there I lied to them as well thinking my labs would blow my story and when it didnt I was sent home and never pursued getting anymore help.
I have since gotten more help. I meet with a lady from Crisis Services once a week now and I see a new therapist on Friday. I talked to him on the phone on Saturday for near an hour and it was really nice. I have a med appointment scheduled now but not until Jan 15th. I have continued going to CVAB during the week randomly when I can and talking with a few of the peer support people.
I confessed to the police that I lied to them. I told the new therapist that I lied. I told the peer support people that I lied. I told Crisis Services that I lied.
I AM SORRY!!!! Please forgive me. I was wrong and I know I need to get help. I am looking at going in on Friday after my kids go to their dads and staying as long as it takes to get me through this.
Please...I can't lose anymore friends....
If anyone talks to Artsygirl or Caine(both who have left DS) tell them I am deeply sorry and that I want a chance to make things right.

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...
I am here to talk if you ever need it...
Just move on, and they will come back or they will not. Either way, everything will work out. Just give it time!
