That silence, when you seclude yourself from everyone, those moments where your mind is screaming at you, telling you that nobody wants you around that you're a burden, that silence driving you even further into your depression, don't let it. DO NOT
Scream if you have to get it out, tell someone, a friend, tell me, post it, tell all of us what's on your head, don't stay inside your head
Telling someone about your depression is a difficult conversation, most people suffer in silence. I love that this site makes it a bit easier
I know reaching out is the hardest but it needs to be done
as I always say its better out than in.
Agreed my special friend. Sue says I should tell her everything like that. Conversely, I tell her to tell me everything like that too!
I agree

Hey sweetie 🌻💛💛💛
D, your messages are always so neat and timely or sweet & cute. We all appreciate them! By the way, I have several small chatlines if you would like to join one. A new is just forming and I have 3 others that would welcome you with arms wide open. Noe of them have more than about a dozen people on them. You would always have somewhere to talk then. Okay? Have a blessed day, my friend!
Whats a chatline
It's a small group of people who share the same response line. It's a personal line where people swap ideas, talk about their problems and help each other out. Other days they just talk about their lives or whatever pops into their minds. It's open 24/7 and can be utilized whenever anyone is talking on it! It's absolutely free and very low risk. I have about a dozen people on each of these special messaging lines. I run them from my pm site here to improve security over what's being said. On a pm chat line only you and the others you are messaging can actually see what is written. I am currently starting Circle Of Friends 4. This messaging chat group will have about a dozen members in it when it is filled out. All members are from this site and can only join if I ask them too. Once they say yes, I add their username to the chat site and presto as soon as anyone is talking on that line, so can they! (Or you, if you accept!) Wanna join one?
Sure I will join. Thanks
It’s nice to know you are around to talk to. Thanks and the same invitation goes for you, too. If ever you are not sure where to turn think of me.
Im always here for you, remember you're my starr 💛💛🌻
Awww thanks. And you are my sun, your smile looks like the sun 🌞
Hey, BFF. Hope you're doing okay!
Heeeeeeey I’m hanging in there.
Good. I'm about to write some more poetry with Sue. Have a blessed day, my favorite friend!
That’s great. You two always seem inspired! Thank you, you have a blessed day too awesome you.
Faith, charity and hope, the greatest of these is charity. Sure will reach out if my head starts to implode.
You're always there for me, i know i can always reach out to you, same goes for you im here whenever 🌻💛
Hi there Needhelp! ❤️
Hey there Starrlight!
Awww It’s nice to read you 🥰
You too, I read your posts, you sound like you are doing well. I am so happy that things are going well with you. Of course we have our ups and downs sometimes but it is how we weather the storms that really count and you sound like a real storm trooper these days. So glad to read you. I am working on getting to that place myself, some things still throw me a bit, but I am working on it.
Same here, I am working on some things too but I do feel so much better lately. I missed you! I think of you and I wish you the very best. May you be blessed with everything good.
Thank you, God’s blessings Starrlight.
Thanks! God’s blessings.
This was the most helpful post I have read since I have joined. Thank you for your nurturing words.
My pleasure, and welcome to the site
I'm quite diferent. I prefer the silence and solitude. I don't make everyone mad at me if I'm alone. When I spend time around others I get more depressed. Alone I go to my happy place
I do like being by myself and take time off from people but i meant when we keep everything in, when that silence contains pain.
Yep! I totally agree. Great encouragement.
🌻💛 all of us are here for you
My mind is always screaming these things at me.
It's all lies, it's how our depression keeps us isolated, there's always someone willing to listen, I'm here for you whenever you need, don't let it take over 💛
Thanks for your response. I am alone. I’ve been in my room for 6 years.I do go out on Wednesday and Sunday. I have nurse who stops by every morning and she returns at evening. I can’t handle meds because of my suicide attempt. You can talk to me anytime, I’m always here. Thanks again..
Im not on here all the time but im a great listener, no close family? 6 years is a long time to be alone
Yeah this is the battle I’m facing . I’ve been avoiding family and friends for the past two weeks because I’m going through another round of depressive thoughts and feelings . Even my husband doesn’t know , I wake up on the middle of the nights just to silently cry my eyes out . I just want to be happy.
Sometimes silence is another word for pain
