Depression and work

[Lilo_and_Stitch]

Today I realized my depression breaks me down so much I hurt people around me and I feel like I get stuck in a different reality. It’s getting hard with working a full time job, but I don’t know how to handle this. One mental break down leads to another. I have my good days and I try to cherish those to get to them again, but this dark gloomy days get longer.

The dark days are long, seems never ending at times... I have with drawn from almost everyone for that exact reason, as I too found myself hurting people because I'm broken. Keeping cherishing those good days, keep searching for your peace.

You don't have to let it define you any longer. there are ways naturally, practical and non-herbal, that we can do to help ourselves out of the thoughts that bind us . The key is to believe I yourself. focus on your positive traits. Hugs of encouragement and support.

Sometimes I wish I could quit working because I get so frustrated. Anxiety is a big issue for me at work. I think if we stopped working though we might find other things to be frustrated about. Do you think that would be the case for you? It would for me. Is there anyone at work you can make positive connections with? I don’t like to get too personal with people at work but it’s nice when you can form some friendships at work based on laughing, joking around and supporting one another.
