...See more Hi , has anyone tried counselling for severe depression. Did it help, and how long before you start noticing a difference. I am awaiting counselling, but at the moment going deeper and deeper into depression.
I cannot cope with relationship breakup.

...See more My ex broke up with me 2 and a half months ago. It was very painful, very sudden. One night all was Ok, the next morning, the first thing he said was "Its all over" We are finished" .I asked why--he said "I've gone off you "  "I've changed my mind" .  I lost my husband over 10 years ago, and did not want,nor was I looking for another man, but it just happened. he was 16 years younger than me, but it worked. I thought that we would always be together, because that is what he told me over and over. "I will always love you "  "you are the best" "you are the one for me" " I will love you forever" "nothing will come between us " "I will never let you down "  etc etc etc , over and over. Now I realise that he must have been lying to me all the time. Even sitting next to me in church week after week , saying his prayers, singing hymns, going for Communion, and all the time he was lying to me.  But I still love him--he was in a coma several years ago, and needed a brain operation, which has left him with mood swings, bipolar etc etc. I still want to help him, but he constantly rejects me and will not accept my offer of help. The hospital has signed him off, although he still has serious issues, and is very confused. I guess I was waiting for him to return to how he was, but I cannot see that happening now. I just cannot get over this. I spend a great deal of time on my own, as I have no family. My friends just do not understand. I am under the doctor and awaiting counselling. But I feel so desolate, and do not know what to do about it.

...See more I had a relationship break up 2 and a half months ago, It was very sudden and very painful. I am finding it difficult to come to terms with.  Nothing that I do helps, and I am sinking deeper and deeper into depression that I cannot get out of. Like being in a well, climbing to the top--then falling back again, each time even deeper than before. What will happen when I cannot fall any further.  I cry all the time. I have no family around, so I could cry all day, noone would care. My friends do not understand. I am ashamed of myself as I know that there are so many others worse off than me, but nothing helps. I am due to have a telephone assessment with a counsellor tomorrow. Has anyone else had this, and does it work ? I I have other issues from my past that are haunting me now too.
