Coping with Depression\ Dissociation
Hi all. I'm Brittany and I'm 29yrs old. Some days I have good days and other's are bad day's. Today is my bad day and I've been trying to fight it off as much as possible. It's that feeling you get when you've been supressing your emotions for too long because you taught yourself that you need to be strong no matter what in times of stress and those emotions eventually start spilling out causing an overload of overwhelming thoughts, feelings and emotions. I'm tired of always being strong. I feel that with what I've gone through in my past life of trauma while trying my best to stay in the present, I feel that I should be allowed to cry when I need to, to have a moment of weakness. To release pain I am carrying in my heart from all these years. I'm going to allow myself to be weak and cry so that I may heal. I believe I never got the chance to grieve the thing's that happened to me. I just taught myself to never cry in stressful events. ...Thank you for readingđź’™
@DaisyBeeBlooming Hi, Brittany! How are you doing today? I also suffer from depression now and then. Some days are worse than others, but I try thinking that a good day follows a bad one. Are you on meds? I'm currently taking only Vitamin D. According to Online Pharmacy, research has established a link between vitamin D levels and depression, claiming that taking vitamin D supplements may help treat the condition. And it is ok for everyone to cry from time to time, so if you feel it helps, don't hide your emotions. It would be great if you have someone to listen to you and support you.
