Hello never done this before. I recently tried to kill myself, I am still alive. I feel like a shell of my self. I realize I need to talk to people and try to connect. I have major depressive disorder and acute anxiety. There is nothing cute about anxiety. I'm just here to tell my story and try to get support.

I don’t know you but am happy you’re still breathing. Suicide can seem so glamorous sometimes, but it doesn’t let things get better. Just remember that if you keep living things will get better. It may not be overnight, but I believe everyone, no matter their mental health, social status or race feels happiness in their life. They just have to find it.

You are definitely right by saying there is nothing cute about anxiety. People have made fun of me for it all my life and they don’t even realize it’s them that are making it worse. The last time I tried to commit suicide, I scared my sister half to death and she ran up to my parents crying and telling them that I am trying to kill myself. It was probably my most regrettable experience - doing that to her. This is such a safe space. People here are so supportive and amazing and I never feel hesitant in being 100% honest. We are here to listen to your story and help you along the way. So glad you found us ❤️ I see you, stay strong!!

Hello! I'm glad you are alive, your Life is precious. I can say we're all at the same boat, trying to hold onto every piece of hope. Depression is sad and is a disease, depression made me quit my job and my college degree, and i failed at my driver's exam. I'd spend my entire day at the bedroom feeling like nothing, i've gained some pounds over this period, to sum up, everything had no sense for me. Last year i finally found the strengh i needed, i returned to college and i will graduate this year, and i've got myself a way better job, and manage to bounce back to my normal weight,still, i have those anxiety attacks every now and then, it kills me, but i'm fighting against this. 2 days ago i joined the group and was the best thing that has ever happened me, talking to people who understands you and do not Judge you because they are going through the same thing, and we're all going to win this game. Feel free to take things out of your chest, i am here for you, and please don't give up on yourself, because i haven't. 😘😘
