First of all I apologise for the rally cringey title, I couldn't think of anything much better.
Okay so. I've not really posted in the forum much at all and I thought since I've been here for half a year it's about time I did.
From various hospital visits from the medical conditions I've had all my life and was born with, I had a three month stay when I was 11 which included staying awake for days on end, having hallucinations, not eating, moving, drinking etc.
This developed into me having depression.
I do genuinely think that people with depression are one of the most strongest people out there.
I just wanted to ask, why does my brain put me in such guilt and anger every day? For seemingly no reason. I'm assuming it's just a part of me...but again, I do want it to go away. I've been living with it for so long now sometimes I don't even think about why I'm sad anymore, it just IS.
Hi, @godsgirlrhizzy, thank you for being so honest. I really don't know why our brains have depression. It seems unfair to battle everyday with the same antagonists - our thoughts, and energy, and urges, and many more. It's a tricky illness, spoiling our good days with a fear of relapse.
But I agree that depression teaches us endurance and patience, even if sometimes in a very cruel way. You are definitely stronger from all of your experiences - the sufferings and tears, but also from the hope - and I believe you will only grow from here. There is no other way for us than to be victorious, and every day we are overcoming depression just by taking breath after breath and not giving in.
I hope that you are feeling calm and stable now. If you want to talk, we are here for you, both on good and bad days of the mood weather. Sending you all of my strength, lovely!
