Depression Understood Forums

OK so i've somewhat accepted being the way i am, it is still hard with the moods and anxiety though. Everyday life has a way of sneaking in little suprises i would rather not have. That, to me, is the worst part. Things may even out and just when you think you may just get through another day you find yourself wishing you were DEAD. Believe me, i've read enough about overgeneralizing situations but when you have others that are close to you adding in their "two cents" it makes for a horrible feeling. You love and trust and i know i can't expect them to treat me like royalty or anything, but the way i feel it seems they do it intentionally at times just to teach me a lesson. What i really need is to get used to expressing myself better without coming off as a nasty person. So i apologize in advance because i really need to practice getting my feelings in order and right now the only way is to post here.

Thank you to all my friends here that have been there for me and the real me is in here somewhere.

Oh, btw i ate all the box of chocolates. What's next?

Don't give up, please! Also, try not to feel too down about it. Think about what happened & find a way to counter it.

Tell them that they can go fly a kite. (That is nice enough.) Don't put up with people dumping on you & their crap! (It made me depressed!)

Here's an image for you. Imagine that when they upset you, you are able to pick them up & SLAM them, like in wrestling. Use every thing you have to SLAM them. Even if you can only slam 1 of them, you may feel satisfied about it.

If they're bothering you about your weight, for example, tell them to go fix their teeth. Find whatever is a weakness & use it. Hit them where it hurts; don't spare them because they are NOT sparing you. If kindness is given, kindness is received; if cruelty is given, THROW IT BACK AT THEM TENFOLD. They will stop after you retaliate [verbally] enough times.

You tell them to "bring it on" girl!

We are nice people but not to be walked on or made to feel less than we are. Stand up for yourself because you know you can & to avoid problems later. You can do it!

Hugs to you & take care! (((((((((((((((((((( Misty ))))))))))))))))))))))))))

P.S. I am an April-born, so if I seem sort of fiery, I'm an Aries....

((((crystalgaze))))

Thank you for giving me inspiration. No really, i have become a doormat that does not like making waves. I just hate confrontations or arguements. But you have reminded me of how i used to be. Once i get going i don't back down.

BTW...April born here too, only i'm on the cusp so i'm Taurus. Hey that explains some things

Thanks again so much,
Misty
