What is the thing that depression effects the most in your life?
@Jose2010reyes You are not worthless
We all have those feelings from time to time.
@JK17 it makes you start pushing away everyone you love until suddenly there is no one left but you
@JK17 it makes me want to die faster. or dissapear. to go to a place that no one can find me. depression makes me think that i'm worthless.
@puffxcheek I hate feeling like that. I hope you have a good day today.
@puffxcheek
I feel this way, too.
It's awful.
@JK17 when I try to love myself and try to be happy with myself my depression stops me from that needed love
@lostinheaven Thanks. I think lots of us can relate. Self love is very important.
Depression makes me wonder if any of this is worth it... The nicer I am, the more I get crapped on... Especially by my spouse.
I hate everyone and everything... I especially hate myself for being a door mat.
@Burnie123 exactly. Thas why i resorted to just bein a bitch but i get crap for tha too. And octavots like everytime i get up life has to hit me harder than the last time...
@Burnie123 Thanks for sharing Burnie. Im sorry to hear about your situation.
The more depressed I am feeling, the less motivation and energy I have and the more I isolate myself...which only makes the depression worse. Vicious cycle.
@BridgetAileen
I get you there. I get the samethings going on and I close the curtains, lock the door and sit in the dark. TV off and all that. Don't even feel like eating. That's usually when the anxiety starts kicking in.
@Gman1246 Yep, I can sit for hours and then wonder what happened to the day. Fortunately for me, though, not every day is like that.
@BridgetAileen - I agree with that. I like to think that because it's a cycle there's a chance to break it.
@JK17 You're right! It can be broken. That's why we're here, right?
@JK17 - It's taken a lot of work this past month, but I'm finally breaking that cycle. What a relief! I know that depression won't be gone forever, but having learned what I have in the past month and having worked so hard to implement it all so that these tools become new habits, maybe it won't be so difficult the next time around. I hope you're learning and improving, as well.
Hi hope you are doing well and breaking the cycle. @BridgetAileen
@JK17, awwww, thank you so much! Actually, I'm doing OK. Smooth patches, rough patches, but over all the smooth patches outnumber the rough ones and the rough ones aren't quite as long and deep. How are you doing?
Going really well thank you!! Stronger every day. @BridgetAileen
I guess for me depression has been around since I was young. It comes and goes. But when it hits I lose control and hope. I push people away. I waste money. I shut myself off. I don't eat properly. I stay awake late. I feel sad. I have suicidal thoughts.
The combination of these things gives me an overall sense of hopelessness.
Then I think I don't care what people think about me. As long as I can be happy I don't have to prove anything to anyone.
I'm lonely. Shy. One. Fantasizing about abstract affairs. Isolated. Silent. Stronger. Empty. Intelligent. Weird. Constructing an inner fair and exciting world unlike this one. What else could I say?
It differes for me, sometimes I feel like I'm worth nothing and I hate my entire existence, other times it physcially affects me, I can't sleep etc, and have Social Anxiety too, so I literally cannot interact with anyone
@JordanPeraltaa I'm sorry that you have Social Anxiety on top of depression. I can only imagine how difficult that must be. Hugs!
@BridgetAileen Aww thanks, but we all have problems! <3
