Depression Understood Forums

I'm new to these forums, and hopeful that I will find some support and can provide help to others. Depression has to be the loneliest thing. Although so many people suffer from it, I find it's hard to find others who truly understand. Currently, my 13 year marriage is falling apart, my few friends are not as close as I would like them to be, and my family is a complete mess (parents and siblings).

I suffered from depression on and off for many years and see no end in sight. The hardest part has been not having a close relationship now for support. It's just a really tough time right now.

Hi Delilah. Welcome to the forum. I'm sorry you feel so alone. Have you thought about attending a group in your area? That can sometimes help.

Sorry to hear about your relationship troubles. Have you thought of marriage counseling?

You are doing a good thing by reaching out here. Also you can try the chatroom too.
