Depression Understood Forums

hi..i'm new here..would like some advice if anyone can help me.

i know i'm depressed and am planning to see a psychiatrist soon about this to get a proper diagnosis.

i just didn't know that depression could affect the people around me- i ended up making my friend depressed by just being depressed myself.

how is that possible..? i feel really guilty and i want to right my wrongs.

thank you.

The most important thing right now is you! you can only hope that your friend will be understanding. Maybe this will be something you guys could work out together. You can try to talk to them but don't cause yourself more anxiety. Put yourself and your health first. I hope you recover!

Ive been in the same situation two. I thought i was the only one knowing my friend never ment to make me depressed but for her to mention all the bad stuff she was going through telling me her life isnt worth living shows it started to make me think about mine.

I know u never ment to make her feel depressed but i do think u could try talking to her and saying u never ment to effect her two and u should of been more aware. You can only try and work things out with her and ur know if she will wanna accept ur apologie.

Good to know that ur seeing the psychiatrist soon and hopefully it can look at the way ur thinking about things in a more clear way to understand more about what others are thinking about u. Take the time to come to terms with everything whats happened and try step by step resolve things one by one.

I know how u feel but its important if u can try and reach out to someone u can talk to. You know u got this site. Therefore if u need anyone to talk to in the mean time about anything whats on ur mind then Im here two.
