I've had depression for as long as I can remember, been in and out of counseling and physiatrist. I've been on different meds, but nothing that has helped any. I'm OK with it though. I don't feel like there's anything that can really help me, not at this point. Lately though I've been beginning to realize just how bad the thought of death/suicide is with me. I mean, I know it's not a good thing or normal to have a constant thought of wanting to die or commit suicide, but it never really bothered me that I had those thoughts, or even that I had them constantly. I know they're not my true thoughts, just the depression talking. Lately though I've been starting to wonder. Do I REALLY want to die? I don't know. I just wish there was something that could make those thoughts go away. Just a tip here, but when I realized meds weren't helping any of my conditions I changed my diet. Might help to start eating better and doing some excercise, doesn't work for everyone but it does work for some. Very true! thats what I am haveing my daughter do too!

LOL, I have a lot going on now. I got a call earlier about an apt. I want to get. I called my dad to see if he could lend me some money, he has the money, I just hope he decides to help me out just this once.
I have to call them back tomorrow and hopefully I can put down a little now, and give them the rest later. I can move in Aug. 7 if I get the money, so I should have a little time to get things together. Once I get this Apt. I'll have about three months to find a job, so I should be able to find something. |

...so they could come home and find me and realize just what they've done to me. First, perish that thought. They've proven conclusively they are not worth the effort and certainly they aren't worth your life. Just remember Karma ALWAYS wins in the end, and they will get whatever is coming to them. |

Well, as a depression sufferer myself, I understand. I can't help with making them go away except to say I usually only have those thoughts when I'm alone. Find someone to be around, I know it's crazy to say on a dating site, but even just a roommate might help. What I do when I have a "tasty shotgun moment," well there are a few things that keep me from doing that. First is, well good manners. It would be inconsiderate of me to leave that kind of mess behind, especially since I've not made arrangements for after my demise (will, funeral and such). Second, I won't give the b@st@rds the satisfaction of knowing that they got to me. I don't even know who they are, but I won't let them break me. Three, no one might ever want what few things I have to offer, but I still cling to a few small rays of hope, because I know I'm worth it. |

I come from a very disfunctional family.. didn't realize that until I was older..My dad commited suicide at age 57.. I had a total breakdown at the age of 23 and was 2 mo pregnant with my 4th child..they gave me 7 electro shock treatments for depression.. it helped but I couldn't remember anyones name for a while...lol and my baby weighed 11 lbs..23". I blame that on the shock treatments..lol This past winter was horrible.. I had fatigue soooo bad, I could hardly get out of bed.. The dr started to treat me for depression but I'm sure I was not depressed.. feeling better since I am getting out in the sun more. I did tear a cartlidge in my knee last Aug and had surgery in Dec but then battled the fatigue. Now I am waiting to get a new knee joint, not able to do much.. will have the surgery when weather gets cooler.. I try to keep busy and working out does help.. Everyone is different and you just have to keep trying to find the right solution for yourself.. Just don't give up! Take one day at a time.. another thing that helped me was to keep as many negative people out of my life as possible, worked wonders..

Yeah, sunshine and avoiding negative people helps a lot. Working out and exercise helps as well. Once things settle down, I'm going to starting working out again, but it may be few months before I can.
Right now, I'm just hoping I can get enough moeny together to move, and find a job. Once I get that taken care of things will be a lot better. |

I heard the depression drug Paxil has some very bad side effects. I use to take it and it was bad for me, I too suffer from depression but I take pill "abilify" to help me.
I hope you get better soon. Just pray and ask the Lord to take away all those bad feelings of depression. I know it will not work over nite and it is a process but it has helped me quite abit. Sincerely,Isabel

I don't know if they would give me Paxil or Abilify.
I tried Geodone, Seroquel, and some other I can't remember right now. All it does is make me tired and hear crickets, which would cause anxiety. |

I think every person was depressed sometimes in their life. Simple because we don't live the life we want! Too much pressure on us.

I have to disagree
I've never experienced deppression. Maybe sadness but not depression as described don't live the life we want?? I'm living the life I want-I know ppl don't want to hear me get all pollyana but I worked hard for this life. Real damn hard! Why? Because this is the life I wanted and now have that's the only way to get the life you truly want- work for it! Don't let anything stand in your way and go and get it!!! My life is good. I want nothing more--nothing less! All due to Me!!

Self isolation I found for myself to be the easy way to self destruction and depression. Going out to any social event would be arduous and discouraging. I started to notice that when I went with the attitude that I will have fun tonight, I discovered that I would usually have a fun night. If things did not pan out the way I intended on any given occasion, I would improvise by doing something I had not intended to do or meet someone I would have not met otherwise. Try new things, go to new places, and meet new people. They don't have to like you to make you feel better. The fact of taking the initiative and being proactive does make you feel better. Just have fun with life and things get easier.
