Depression support

[Millerlj]

I have been dealing with depression for so long I really don't know when it started. I am just looking for support.

Hi, how are you doing? Welcome to the site! I'm here for you. I've been dealing with this nasty disease for 30 years now but I'm not going to give up! We must keep fighting the good fight for us! We deserve it! Love, peace, light, joy & hugs!

Having a difficult morning. Didn't sleep much last night. Living with depression isn't for the weak. Stress at home then Dad passed away 2 weeks ago. Then coordinating hotel rooms for the kids and their families, managing red cross messages for the 2 kids in the military so they can take leave. Helping family with funeral plans. Being big support for those who needed it. I am just now trying to process it all and keep from falling apart. Emotionally and physically drained.

Oh I'm so sorry of the passing of your dad. I know all too well what that feels like. You are doing good even though you don't think so. Look at what all you're doing now. You have the fight in you so keep up the work you're doing. You don't have a plate going on right now, I would call it a buffet. I wish for you peace of mind. Again I'm here for you. Love, peace, light, joy & dump trucks of hugs!

Even though everyone lived miles apart we came together to celebrate Dad. I was at his bedside when he passed. Such an honor to be there. But it just doesn't make the heartache over the loss any easier. It has been a roller coaster of emotions.

Oh I totally understand. I watched my bestie, my mom pass just about 30 years ago. I don't think there is ever a day where you are ready to say goodbye to a loved one. I'm here for you. Be kind & gentle with yourself at this time, please! Love, joy, light, peace & hugs for you!

Hi, losing a loved one is really hard. I'm so sorry. There's a lot going on for you & I just want to remind you that you don't have to do everything alone. Let the support staff from the hospital, or the funeral home help you as you process your grief. I know it's easy to feel like you have to be strong for others, but you need to take care of yourself too. Speak to your pastor, or the hospital chaplain about your struggles. When my dad passed away, the hospital had grief support team that reached out to us consistently. Is there such a team available for you? In the meanwhile, please write out your feelings and thoughts here. You are not alone. We are here for you. We love you.
