How do you talk about depression to your surroundings?
Depression Support / by Suen00

...See more Hi everyone,  Depression still seems to be a bit of a tabu topic in many social groups and when these are quite immediate environments and you've had depression all your life it makes you feel unsupported and disconnected from the people you love the most.  Whenever they shoot minimizing comments on depression, as if it was a condition that didn't exist or an excuse to not do what you're supposed to do... in front of me... I go small, try to remain unseen and hope they forgot that time I told them I had depression for a very long time and needed to take medication also for a long time (it's hard to believe someone would forget I said that...). If they remembered and stop pretending it didn't happen, that would mean all these unfounded criticism would be directed towards me. So I'd rather think and act as if they didn't remember and stay hidden, as always. Needless to say that doesn't contribute to my mental wellbeing. How can someone break this mental cycle and express themselves without creating conflict and direct confrontation with the ones that you love but are quite ignorant to the world's reality and how bad this makes us feel and hinders our personal progress? What do people in this group think? Did anyone experience (a) similar situation(s)? 😊

What to do with sexist behaviours?

...See more Just feeling disapointed with a very sexist society. For a while I've been trying to learn sailing and windsurfing, which is all possible where I live. The sailing comunity is very male dominated though and I've reached a point where I felt mistreated everytime I wanted to do heavy tasks that usually man do (but I don't think woman can't do). Being literally pushed away or pretending I did something wrong that could've threatened another member's wellbeing (I did not, a man made the set up to pretend I did but I didn't). When I finally got the attention of the windsurfing team it turned out it was only a male, single that spend hours and hours on me and my training but everytime his hand was a bit loose slightly touching some parts of my body I did not want him to touch and pretending it was an unintentional and unnoticed. I don't think it was. I'm quite exhausted and frustated.
