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'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.

That would be a kind thing to do, but there is no way to control it.
And it is impossible to tell what will trigger someone and what will not, even if we tried to be careful.

The only person you can control, is you.
But you are right that some people post sensitive topics without marking them adequately, and if you feel affected by posts, send some messages as everyone here (including me) will be glad to talk to you.
