I feel secluded from everything... I feel like I'm just disappearing.. I can't seem to grasp joy in life... So many thoughts of calling it quits go through my head... I don't even remmeber the last time I really smiled.. Nights I can't sleep.. And when I finaly do dream.. I wish I never wake.. My mind feels numb. I'm scared that this will be forever . All I hear is silence

I understand how you are feeling. Right now the devil has got his claws into you and it sounds like he's got you in that dark black hole. The only positive is, is that it does pass and things do get better. I can't say say when, or how long before it happens, but it will happen. Are you seeing a therapist or taking any type of medication? Those two things are really important when you are feeling this badly. Have you been dealing with this depression for a long time or is it something new? I too go between insomnia and Chronic Fatigue and that doesn't help our situation at all. I hope you know that you have lots of support here at DS and people who care. Don't ever feel alone and you aren't in the dark by yourself. Let us know what we can do okay? Hugs GB

I'LL come and sit with you if you like. This is a place very familiar to me; though I don't live in it any more. Still, I return, sometimes, so that I can keep myself in a fit condition to stand against it if it returns.

I know that feeling. It can be bad, but keep trying. I think it's all we can do.
