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.
For the longest time I've felt like something is wrong with me.. all throughout high school I was picked on and 4 years after graduating I still get it.. these kids (boys) would pick on me nonstop when I was dating their friend. I don't know why, they just never liked me. I broke up with the boy my sophomore year and the boy told his friends all my secrets. It was so bad that I would get anxiety attacks in the middle of the hallways in school and I would cut myself to ease the pain. I even wanted to drop out, but my counselor wouldn't let me, yet she wouldn't do anything to stop the harassment. Well, I graduated and seemed to not have a problem since, up until last year.. I got harassing facebook messages from a guy I never met, who is friends with my ex's friends.. I broke down. He found me even with my last name changed (due to marriage). I don't know why he went out of his way, but he did. Then a week ago another guy, who I was actually friends with in high school brought up secrets of mine randomly and laughed at me for them. And those we the secrets I only told me ex.. I don't know if my ex is randomly doing this or his friends are trying to bring me down again, but its working.. I'm not going to harm myself or anything along those lines, but I feel so lonely.. although I have friends and a husband.. it brings me back to those awful high school days and I feel completely worthless.. I've been noticing I have been withdrawing from the world.. my mood swings have been in full swing.. and I haven't been motivated to do anything.. I guess I just needed to vent, I hope this helps me..

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
As for the people who are harassing you, is there some way to stop them from posting on your Facebook account? Also, you said a week ago a guy brought up secrets and laughed at you. Where were you when this happened? Can you stay away from places that these mean people go to? These people who do this are very immature. How old are these people?
Remember that you are ok. They are the ones with the problems. Keep writing on here and let us know how you are doing. We care. Mostly...remember that YOU ARE FINE JUST THE WAY YOU ARE!
