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 went to the ER tonight for my depression. I am really going through a hard timeI need more help then myself or my parents can handle. I am so upset and emotional. I don't know what to do anymore. I am absoluletly terrified about so much in life. I am scared that I might cut myself again. I previously cut myself, without the intention of killing myself. It was a way of expressing my feelings. I don't know what else to do. I already have a crisis line to call. I plan on calling them in the morning. I know I have to call.
And please do not cut yourself. I am begging you. It's hard, I know. You might be tempted, I know! But hang in there and don't give in whatever you do. Self harm isn't the right way to express your feelings. It is destructive. It deceives you.
And you know what? I am glad you have a line to call. That's very proactive of you. I have faith in you and I trust you have the strength to do the right thing for YOU. Keep me updated, please! Hope all goes well.
I hope you are okay. (((Hugs)))
In the ER they raised one of my meds. They also gave me a couple of crisis line numbers.
I am so sorry you are struggling. I think that you going to the ER was very brave of you. (((HUG)))
