Surviving Depression

AmyJulianna November 8th, 2016

I survived 10 months of depression, during 3 of which I was suicidal. I am grateful that I am still here, and that I've come back to the 7cups community as a listener to help others walking through the same path:)

I just want to say to those struggling with depression that getting professional help is key. I started getting better only when I started going to counseling. If your current therapist isn't helpful to you, please, PLEASE try another therapist.

Please know that there is ALWAYS hope, even though I know that it feels like there is none. You will get better. you will feel happy again, just like I did. It doesn't happen overnight, but it's a daily battle that you have to fight through. You will get well. I promise.:)

Thank you for this <3 I was seriosuly suicidal just in the last 2 months but I've been doing much better and while it tends to sound cheesy, there really is a light in the end.
