Depression Understood Forums

Hello everyone
I don't know if im depress but it feels like I am. I never seem to be happy or in a good mood. My work life is stressful that I just want to cry at times because no one at my work seems to care. I move an hour away from my friends and now it seems they hang out and don't bother to ask me to join them. I really don't have many friends since Im a quiet person so right now them not including me on some of there stuff is getting me down. I thought I was pregnant with my boyfriend of 5 years and I was actually excited till I got my monthly visit. Even though I took test before and even after my period I still have it in my head at times that I may be pregnant. I know being pregnant isn't the best time with our money issues but I still wanted to be a mother so bad already. My boyfriend and me have our own home and pretty much a married couple without the rings and title of Mr. and Mrs. I love him but the romance has died and it gets me down. One last thing im out of shape not like OMG im huge but seeing that I use to take dance, have a nice flat tummy, and was in shape and now I have a belly to the point that some people think im a few months pregnant and doing any physical activity makes my heart race. Sorry for this long intro to me but I have no one to talk to it seems. Every time I try to talk to my boyfriend he just tells me to stop thinking or saying bad stuff about myself. Oh and life sucks so bad right now that I think dying wouldn't be such a big deal for me. The funny thing is the thing I hate the most is the thought of dying and not being in this world but right now it doesn't sound so bad.

Hi, and welcome.

Have you thought of seeing your family physician, explain how you are feeling physically and mentally? Not saying you are or aren't depressed, just thinking someone with medical training might have the answers. A hormone imbalance, a thyroid not working properly, lots of things controls our emotions. Even the weather can play hay-day with them.

I hope you will continue coming here, posting and staying in touch with the caring people that are about. We also have a chat room connected to this site, lots of good people there as well, should you want to give it a try.

Take care.

Hi DMC! Warmie has already made many great suggestions, so this is just a welcome!

Hi. Seeing a doctor and getting a diagnosis is a huge step towards finding the correct treament to fit your specific needs. One of the most responsible things we can do is ask for help when we need it. I wish you all the luck in the world hon.
