They helped me so much...

Hi, I just want to say that I am here for anyone if they want to talk or just want to chat and make friends :) also if you are depressed or just not feeling well today, I want to suggest a band called Twenty one pilots. They are my favourite band and listening to their music has helped me through a lot of tough times, the band is comprised of two people (they're the guys in my picture) and their songs are themed on mental illness and just tough times in general. Listening to them makes me feel like I'm not alone and I like to think that they are singing to me personally in tough times (I know it's sad but it helps me cope). Anyway, just give them a go... you never know you might like them? Imma leave they're first full album here so you can listen to them if you want :) tell me if you like them :)

Hey, thanks for sharing your music. I listened to a bit of it, glad it helps you .

I'm new to this, just registered on here. Im suffering a bad spout of depression so reaching out as much as I can to try and help myself. Never been on a forum like this but talking helps. I've luckily found a great counsellor.

It's comforting to see others on here ( wish none of us had it ) but I think only those that suffer can truely know what it's like.

I'm one of those people that people would never assume I had the silent illness ... I smile and function. Functioning is a huge struggle at times. If there was a switch to say curtains for you, I would have pressed it.

How are you feeling?

And thanks for the music tips 😀

Hi :) no problem, just spreading that Twenty one pilots love haha, did you like it? I'm sorry to hear you're not good at the minute but I'm glad to hear you are looking for help and have found someone good to help you. I'm exactly like you, I never thought I would be affected and I agree it is a struggle at times but we have to learn that there are others like us and that we are not alone, say the word and we'll help you out. And I'm ok-ish, it's gotten quite bad recently but it's nothing I haven't experienced before (wish I hadn't but still) and at the minute I'm trying to build up the confidence to tell my parents or just book an appointment with my GP confidentially aha, it's no problem haha :)

How are you finding everything here? I'm fairly new here too :)

Yeah you know what it is , it's like here we go again. I've had so many bad bouts that I need to find a solution because I can't keep going through them. How bad do your bouts get?

Ps yes the music is cool. I'm more of a stick a movie on to try and occupy my mind than music but glad you have something that helps

Yeah, I know exactly what you mean. It feels like it should be obvious to people but they never notice, and if they do I sort of just say "I'm fine" because I physically can't say anything else. And they have gotten pretty bad in the past, one got so bad I tried to end my life but I couldn't quite follow it through. I don't know if I'm glad I failed or if I regret not being able to finish it. Fair enough, films are good though :)
