when i first stumbled on this site i was glad to joing and be able to chat with people who understood what i was going through.. but i think the more i was here. i got more depressed. I once talked to my psych teacher about why there was not any support groups for people that suffer from depression and it you think about it.... a bunch of depressed people talking about being depressed will do what? make everyone more depressed. here I think it can be worse because there is no professional to mediate.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. 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...

When I arrived here, I was looking for an easy way to die... a justification for my choice.
Instead, I found out I was really messed up but I wasn't alone and that I can have good days.
Sure there are days I want to die again, but I have a place to go where people understand that. Who will talk with me & support me until I can regain my strength to continue my fight.
The stronger I have been getting, the more I have been able to try & give a teeny bit back here. I find that in turn helps me.
Yes, there are days I can't help... I hit that dark black hole again. But then here I am not alone and people here help me at least see the shadows.
*hugs*
