its not about getting over yourself but learning how to deal with this fun game called depression. your fine and im here if you want to vent

All the people in the world can say that you will get better and life will be good again, but honestly if you do not want it to be good, it will not be good. Try to keep a positive outlook on life and maybe that will help. (This is what my therapist is telling me yet I am still working on it)

Sweetie, I am so sorry to hear that you are down. I wish I could tell you what would help but if I knew, I would be doing it.. Think peaceful thoughts. Easier said then done.. I hope you start feeling better soon. You know we all love ya.. Y'Vonne

I understand, that's what depression is all about, feeling so down and not knowing why. Either that, or everything is a reason why. It's not rational. :(

Mad, FULL MOON.

'nuff said

hey madashell ... wierd how it comes on when it does and how it effects you. Not something you are used to ever having to worry about or deal with before. But it is here, so what to do now?

Keep coming here and talking to us. I find taking a walk and getting outside helps. My dog usually does something silly on the walk as well as being with her, a lot fo people always stop to talk to us. Well her really as she is a cutie. But in the same time, it gives me a lil boost to my step that someone actually stopped to say hi. I have had some people say real nice things to me as well if we got in to a conversation. and the nice things they said were about me. It nice to hear from a stranger some times.

I noticed the Full Moon last night, but didnt want to say anything ... I almost posted in the threads, but didnt want to start anything.

not about getting over yourself,,its about getting throughthe trying times....no one has THE answer...look within yourself and find that something/someone that gives you strength and hold on to it and DO NOT let go....

welcome to the most caring community of family/friends

don't feel bad, mad...you're not the only one having this problem right now...i think it's the weather, or the phase of the moon, or halloween, or because we didn't turn the clocks back last night, or maybe because brittany didn't get in trouble this week....hugs

no need to get over self, need to talk. I understand that happens all the time. Just one thing, if it gets real bad call someone and see your doctor.

hey honey. it's horrid when it gets you like that. but sometimes you just gotta wallow and feel sorry for yourself

WE MUST CONCENTRATE ON SELF MAD, WHAT GOOD ARE WE TO OUR LOVED ONES IF WE DON'T SEARCH WITHIN OURSELVES AND DO OUR BEST TO BETTER OURSELVES. JUST DON'T FORGET THAT YOU MUST CONCENTRATE ON THE SOLUTION TOO. NOT ALWAYS ON THE PROBLEM, THERE IS A SOLUTION. I DON'T KNOW YOUR SITUATION IN DETAIL BUT THERE IS ALWAYS A SOLUTION TO EVERY PROBLEM. PONDER ON IT A WHILE, YOU'LL FIND IT. YOU'LL BE OK.

oh madashell you have been so low for a while now....maybe a trip to the doctor would help.....remember you are not alone....lots of us here to talk to....lean on us and we will help you get through this difficult time.....maybe meds, and/or therapy...???

hi mad,
sound like you're having what i call an 'episode'.. a period of really intense depression that doesn't seem to have a apparent reason. the fact that you're cry all the time, says, time for a med check, may you need a different med or higher dose - crying all the time is a classic symptom... no need to be sorry or get over yourself, that's just more of the depression talking... just know you are not alone, here anyway and there alot of ppl who care about you... xo
