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.
In two weeks I will have a sit down with my therapist and my mother to finalize and clarify my resentment towards her being verbally abusive and physycally at times. It's my final attempt to get her to acknoledge what she did and be able to rebuild a relationship also for me let go of my anger. It could go really well or it could be disastorours. Either way it needs to be done for my mental and emotional health. Furthurmmore it could anialte our relationshiip. I just hope it doesn't go too bad.

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...
