Depression Understood Forums

Great place for support. And lots of really nice people who genuinely do care.

Hi. Welcome to the forums. We also have a chat room here at Depression Understood.

Good wishes and good thoughts sent your way.

Not a good day today. I been sick lately and so very tired all the time. I went to sleep last night and woke up at 1 this morning screaming help help help over and over again. My dreams are like memories. I relive my childhood in my sleep. I have bad dreams a lot. I haven't had one this bad in a lon...

I'm glad you and your sister are so close.

Sadly, only he can explain to you what is in his thinking process and on his mind. All we can do is guess and we don't even know him and can't make a very good guess. I can tell you though about me. And when I came out to people I almost always got treated differently in some way. Even if it was min...

The first time I ever went to see a psychiatrist, it was hard. I was already getting anxious and scared and the appointment was still a week away. I went to my room, closed the door, turned on my favorite music and began to write. It took me almost the full week to get it all written down. I wrote d...

faith

ok, ok... my mind.... dishonest means you lied. But i like to have faith that people are inherantly good inside and wouldn't lie or cheat or steal.... so, faith.

I'm so very sorry to hear this. There should be some type of agencies out there that can help you. Even a local shelter is better than the streets. I do hope you find a job soon.

That depends on the cause, the treatment and the person. For me, there is no cure. Just learning how to live with it. Or despite it. But that doesn't mean I won't ever have a happy and fulfilling life. It just means I deal with things that happen from day to day in a different way.

We each have a different physiology and will react to the same meds differently. It normally takes on average about 6 weeks to feel the full affects of a med. There are some side affects sometimes, but they generally tend to go away. It takes a trained professional to find the right med/dosage/combi...

Just get over it is never a solution or a help. Therapy has helped a lot with me. I was hospitalised at one point in time, but to be honest, it made things worse to a point. It's the therapy and getting to talk to someone that helped more than anything else. We also have a chatroom for depression he...

When we hear how worthless and useless we are often enough, we begin to believe it. Once we believe it, we don't have to hear it anymore. We say it to ourselves. After time, it becomes a way of life. This is one of the things that Cognitive Behavior Therapy addresses and can help with. It helped me ...

To be honest, i think you had already made your choice when you wrote what you did. You just wanted someone to tell you it's ok. And believe me, it is ok. If not right now this very moment, then it will be. Sometimes we have to wait for the dust to settle to find the sun again, but it doesn't mean i...

Thank you.
