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.
both what has left you ready to be depressed in general and what sets you off today or whenever?
1. chronic pain
2. drug addicted children
3. uncaring family
4. friends who have left me because they don't understand my chronic illness
5. rainy, cold weather (but that usually doesn't bother me, just this time because it won't leave our area)
That's it ~~~
Rich people who think they are better than everyone make me deppressed too....
It also depresses me that usually these setbacks are caused by family members..the people who should be supporting me the most.
When lots of bad things happen all at once, that really knocks the wind out of my sails, and I seem unable to fight off depressed feelings.
Big disappointments and people's thoughtless and/ or horrid behaviour towards me can also upset me a great deal.
unless i catch my youngest child laughing..that brings joy
I ruined my marriage years ago---depressing
I struggle month to month financially---depressing
I have a bipolar/behaviorally challenged child---depressing

The list of what's *not* depressing is a lot longer though. :o)
