I have no support.

I was diagnosed with anxiety and depression in 2018. My ex made fun of me. I am new to this so please give me pointers! Thank you

I’m glad that person is your EX! What a horrible human being. I’m sorry you have depression. Everyone relates on here. It’s nice to talk to people who understand and don’t judge. Have you tried medication yet? There are pointers to help manage your feelings. I see a lot of advice on here about going for walks, drawing, reading, writing, anything to keep the mind busy. And professional pointers are seeing a therapist or joining a support group.

I hope you keep sharing! 💜

Thank you. I have been on 4 different medications and sad to say didn't work made me really worse. So I took up coloring. Happy to say it's working to a point. I am seeing a therapist.

Welcome! Not sure what kind of pointers you want. But I find guided meditations helful.

Make sure you seek the help you need when you need it. You come first; your life is precious.

Work with a professional to find coping mechanisms. It takes time, and it feels like hell all the way through, but long term, it will be worth it.

[pitbullmom74 in reply to Loye]

I try to. One thing is helping me is coloring it does work.

Welcome to the family! You will need to create your own supportive environment and support network that works for you. I've been listening to music lately. If your ex was part of your anxiety depression stress, perhaps you'll feel better when you emotionally let go.

Thank you! I listen to music. Also I have started coloring it has been working. My ex is a part!

Hi Pitbullmom74,

First of all.. Here, people are supportive. Don't let people in your life make fun of you because of your depression or anything else.

I've gotten rid of some pretty toxic people in my life. But, people here.. Not really knowing them, for me have been more supportive than my family.

So, we are here for you whenever you need us. It's a safe place to vent if needed or ask questions..

So, Welcome. 😊😁

Thank you. I have found out what friends are real and fake. I don't really have any real friends. I will get thru this and my real friends will see it.
