When will it ever end?

When will it ever end? How can there be any hope for the future? Just when you think things might be getting better, the darkness and pain burns the possibilities away. I'm so sick of this depression. I want to escape my body and never return.

I am sorry that things are going like this for you.

I see you are an empty-nestter. The day my youngest moved out my MIL moved in, so I've never been tested to see how I'd deal with that. Secretly I wish that I get the chance, but not at the expense of my MIL.

If you've lost someone, you have to grieve. And time will heal it. The trick is not to get too sucked into what you think you're thinking while you think you're thinking it.

Which is to say, yes you're down. And life sucks right now. But it will get better, and you will go into a new phase of life, and enjoy it.

It's just going to take some adjusting, is all. Do you like swimming? Pottery? Woodwork? I hear a night class calling... :)

Sorry to hear that you feel so badly. This depression we fight sometimes seems to have us down for the count. But we keep on fighting that dark enemy of depression.

I am going through some major changes these days. Sometimes I really do not know how I am making it through these ordeals and such.

We are lucky to have this group for support and love. I am glad you are here. There will always be hope.

    I got an email from Kohl's that I had a 40% off coupon for today and tomorrow only.  It took me about an hour but I placed an order and got some great deals.  I have been wanting a new dress.  I like dressing up sometimes.  My birthday is coming up and I have dinner plans at a nice restaurant.  But, honestly, I'm a little out of control again.  I went through this in the fall.  I bought...

    Has anyone else noticed that clearly speaking and doing things intentionally is liberating because it helps combat the feeling of depression and a sense of hopelessness? Let me share a little more: in my experience, when those who have tried to project a hidden agenda that is obviously not aligned with integrity and well-being, it's best to be firm and speak clearly from self-awareness and...
