Depression Community - How do you actually feel today?
I made an appt with my therapist today. I haven't seen him since my father died
I'm sorry for your loss. 
Hugs for you. I lost both my parents and it is very hard. Wishing you the best.
I'm sorry for you it's good your seeing a therapist though. I give you my strength.
I feel even worse today..after I got home yesterday I basically just laid in bed for a good 4-6 hours before finally going to bed. Today wasn't great. I've wanted to explode since my second class. 
Sending peace and comfort to you.
Lately I've felt empty. Like I'm not worth it, I barely have any friends and the ones I do have don't deserve me. I'm bad at everything, and feel pretty worthless.
@impartialTree3773, I'm sorry you feel so low. The emptiness and numbness are such painful emotions, and they can make your state even worse. You feel worthless, and I wish your brain wouldn't do that to you, wonderful, because you have worth just like any of us. You feel alone, and I'm so proud of you that despite your state you have strength and courage to reach out.
I'm glad to hear you have friends to support. Would you mind telling us more about them?
Lots of love!
yesterday was hard... today is hard... tomorrow will be hard... when does that end?
I just feel so utterly alone and I feel like people don't care. I want to physically hang out with someone but I feel like the other person doesn't want to. And when I really had that for a glimps last night, I didn't want him to leave but he had to and that was painful and I felt like I wasn't gonna talk to him or see him again. It was so hard and then it made it hard for me to sleep well. And so many things are going on in my life. I wish I didn't have to deal with those little things. And some people say "I'm sorry you have to go though that and I know it is difficult" but I don't think they fully understand how I feel inside...
@tinyDoReMi, you're right. Only you know the depth of your despair. Only you know how much persistence you give every day to overcome your hardships. Your sufferings are yours alone.
But that doesn't mean I cannot support you. We are here, lovely, to take your hand and to walk through the darkness together. We can support you when you want to lean and rest. We can sing you soft lullabies when you have troubles with falling asleep. We won't let go when you feel like drowning.
We care about you. And your pain doesn't define this. Your pain only defines itself. We are more than our struggles. We are more than nouns and medical terms.
I don't know how hard it is for you to keep on trying, to fight every day. But I'm here to listen. So please, tell us. We want to know how brave and strong you are.
Love!
I was. I guess you could say. bullied today. It's been happening everyday by my so called friends. Can't get away b/c I was assigned to always be with them ._. Failing my classes, not getting any sleep, lots of hw. My mom got fired too due to her feet cramping severely so she can't work. She has to get surgery too. And last but not least, we're running out of money so yeah...things are just "terrific" right now...
@LovePom, I'm sorry to hear that. You feel very stressed out. Financial matters in family always makes me worry the most. And I tend to think I cannot even talk about it with anyone, because I feel a bit ashamed.
You have a lot of things going on in your life. It's okay to feel sad, to feel overwhelmed. On top of that your classmates are cruel, and it doesn't help you at all. It must be difficult for you. Would you mind me asking how do you like to relax, to find a bit of relief from these problems?
Lots of love!
Thank you~ I haven't been able to relax in the way I used to. Such as: Drawing, Music, and Writing stories. I can only relax when I go to sleep for the night (which takes an hour =.=)
Hard day. I suspect that I've entered into a toxic relationship.
Sorry to hear that, @placidChestnut4908. Would you like to tell us a bit more about it?
Lots of love!
Today I felt like I couldn't breathe . My chest was hurting . No one ever talks to me anymore and I don't know why everyone is leaving me . I had to cry all day but I held it in . I'm home now , I've been crying since I got into my room . My makeup is a mess and so am I . I don't know what happiness is anymore . To me it's just a meaningless word now . :/
@Awesomegalaxy, you sound in distress. I'm so sorry that you feel so low. It must be very difficult for you. Would it help you a little if I hug you?
*hugs gently and strokes your hair in a comforting way*
Lovely, can I make it a bit better for you somehow? Maybe you want the nicest place on the Internet?
I hope you will feel better soon. Lots of love!
I just want to go one day without hating how I look or every single piece of clothing I put on. I'm never enough for myself. I'm really sick of hating myself. Why does this happen? There are people who love what they see in the mirror. I've never been one. I don't understand why it's so hard to like myself. Some days are worse than others.
@selfdisciplinedKiwi5891, I'm so sorry to hear you feel so low. I can see you feel exhausting from hatred, that you wish to change your situation. It's an important step - noticing your insecurities, and wanting a better life for yourself. You are already self-aware and it's a great progress, lovely. I'm proud of you.
If you want I can help you find resources to help you battle your negative perception of yourself. Just PM me. I''ll be happy to help and support you, wonderful.
Sending lots of love!
I feel defeated today. Last night was rough and I basically shut down. This happens often. My SO isn't supportive or encouraging. He's probably the source of most of it.
@Smallcup7, I'm sorry that you feel you don't have support in your loved one. It makes difficult to recover, but it's not impossible.
Maybe your shutting down is a way for you to cope with your pain? Sometimes our brain does strange things to survive. and that's okay. Surviving is enough.
I hope you will feel better soon. All my love!
I feel a little better today, was a bit elated this morning. that was before school. i had another Poptart for lunch..and a Twix during chemistry. Not the best choices but it's better than not eating at all. i talked to my crush today..and i wanna tell him how i feel..haven't gotten around to that quite yet. but overall I'm ok today
@lovingPine3496, I'm glad to hear you feel better today. And you're right - eating anything is better than starving. Every little thing you do to take a better care of yourself is precious, and I'm proud of you. You are doing as best as you can, and it's enough.
Sending lots of hugs!
