I agree , I suffer from fevere anxiety and depression, very much so.
I went years without getting any help and now I am sorry
I didn't go sooner with it.
My depression is so deep sometimes, I don't care if I live or die. I
don't like that dark place at all. I am alot better now but will not
ever get over it, to much time wasted. I agree that people should get
help as soon as the need it or even think they need it.
I am so very glad I have someone to talk besides family members now.
Someone that partial to everything.
My heartfelt wishes go out to all that suffer from depression.
I can only say keep strong , hold your head and things will get better.
I know I have been there and still am there.

I'm holding my head as I cant stop the over done feeling thats why i
cry.And if i hear one person say to me agian "snap out of it i might
snap at them!!" it doent work that way!!!

t isnt easy at all to snap out of it, you can't
its an illnees that will only go away in time if you work at it.
I meant hold you head up.

I'm used to having depression,I've been depressed almost all my life to
the point of suicide,I lost both grandparents by the age of 23,always
feeling alone,confused, scared,I have atually tried suicide till I got
counseling which is actually kinda helping and talking to everyone on
here has also helped. I found it helps to really open up and talk about
your feelings with someone I also have thought about suicide because
sometimes I feel like no one loves me

I need to ask one question JP, how can you be "used" to depression? I
do not ask this in a mean way at all. I can never even remotely get
used to it. It not a habit, nor is it something I can get use to. I
have been there and done that with my suicidal thoughts, I do sometimes
still have them, but they are just that. I look at myself and say that
it wouldnt be worth because I will cause to much pain and anguish for my
family, lord knows they have suffered enough. I have lost all but on of
my siblings 4brothers,my only sister, and my mom and dad. Somehow I
have to keep going and take it one day at a time. I have no other
choice, I have 2 great daughter and 7 wonderful grandkids they are my
life now. You see there is always a reason to not give up. I will
never give up and nor should you or anyone ever.

Brighteyes, Fallen, Jp,

I am always around to talk to. Since I sold the 24hr truck repair, I
have more time for people. Always enjoy talking & some people find my
thoughts helpful. Mail me & we can even set up our own support group.
Just a thought.

Sage

Thanks sage, I know you are
You are a good friend and I am lucky to have you!

Anytime for all needing help.
I am an opinionated old guy,
But think I speak good thoughts.
Been thru ALOT & got help, not ashamed of that.
Now trying to pay it back.
God moves in mysterious ways.

Some form or other runs through the genes in my family.

I have PTSD, and have been up and down my whole life.lol

My son is emotionally handicapped, and bi-polar. As well as what they
feel might have been undiagnosed Apergers? sp
They are trying to find what works for him, and of course he has to
actually take the meds on a regular basis, which is classically not done
for severe sufferers. They feel good for awhile, and in thier minds
think "better" and either forget, ot stop taking them. Like with
schizophrenia (which they are not entirely sure he doesn't have a form
of...)
It is not controlled, yet. So, anytime he calls, we never know how he
will be. One day he can be coherant, we will debate, laugh...(he is
super intelligent)... the next he is not my son. He is gone in his head
somewhere, ranting, abusive, severe anxiety...

Folks are never as alone as they are within themselves. And, the cycle
can go on forever...

Regular counsiling (even touch based), and meds, and alternative
behavioral therapies help tremendously.

Each person is different, and will not react the same to all meds. Make
sure your doctor listens to you, and write things down ahead of time.
