Hi:
I am new to this forum but certainly not new to depression and bipolar disorder. I have struggled for many years, trying new medications, going to therapy, reading and sharing with others. It hasn't always worked for me.
My illnesses have wrecked havoc on my life--a failed marriage, difficulty with work, isolation from friends and family and overall feelings of worthlessness, hopelessness and poor self-esteem. I'm hoping that one day I will see the light of day as I climb out of this horrific pit of darkness.
It is reassuring to me that we are all in this together--we understand what it is like to be squashed and void--that we can't just "snap out of it." I feel fortunate in finding this site. Please know, I am here for you as I know you are for me. I appreciate that so much.
Thanks.
Lisa
