I've been feeling good for a few weeks. Having suffered from depression for most of my life, I don't want to embrace this happiness too much in case it disappears again. Wondering if I might be recovering, if it's even possible...

I'm tired both mentally and physically, I'm scared, anxious and unsure where to turn. I cried most of the day worrying... My eyes are so sore they feel heavy, inside I feel numb, sick to the stomach... I wish this would just all disappear.

Had a meltdown and now my friend is threatening to send me to counselling against my will. I hate being punished for my depression.

I can't cope with my depression and anxiety over school & its getting so bad that it's affecting my health

I wake up feeling anxious and overwhelmed about university. I connect with the listener who helped me to ease my thoughts. I realized that sometimes you need to embrace your depression and befriend your anxiety. If that's my current mood, let it be. But I'm not define it by it.

Now I'm listening to the music on 8tracks and writing in my journal. I feel a tight knot in my stomach and that's okay.

Thank you! Every minute, by a bit, better. Being outside, in the sun, helps.

Sometimes it can be hard for people to understand. .. it sucks !! 😕

It's hard to understand depression for other, "healthy" people. But here, on this website you can find people who really know how it feels. We get it. We are all messes.

Feel welcomed to share your thoughts, maybe with a listener, in chat-room, or in a forum? Or read the Q&A section- I always find it reassuring.

I've had a long, long talk with my mum recently and in a sense my fears have not entirely disappeared, but eased a little. These last few weeks have been extremely difficult to say the least, mainly due to a very insensitive doctor who showed me no compassion or delicacy towards me when I was in need of help. My health (women's issues) were made worse due to this doctor, but after a talk with both my parents last night I feel that with just a little TLC I will recover eventually. Even my father, whom we have had a rocky relationship said that this doctor had no right to treat me the way I had. Perhaps now I might just get things back in order. Here's hoping.

I'm in high school so there is a lot of drama, today I wished there wasn't any drama, it just makes me feel worse.

tonight I have wished that I could turn my emotions off...
