Hello. I am really struggling as of right now... I can't seem to climb out of this pit that I find myself in. It's hard to leave my house and I feel more isolated then ever. I don't think I'm meant to understand. I'm having a hard time talking to people and I really just want to lay down and sleep forever.

Hi! I’m happy you vented. I never leave my apartment either and avoid talking to people. Often days at a time when I’m having one of my darker moments. It’s a big reason why I joined this app bc I have a hard time sharing my feelings with friends and family. I think joining this group is a good thing bc we need to communicate our feelings and its a lot easier to do that here anonymously. I hope you continue to vent on here because you’re not alone. It feels impossible to make it to tomorrow, but we’re doing it. Every day we wake up we’ve made it to another day and that is something to celebrate. You’ve got this. If you need someone to talk to there are lots of people on here like me that are ready to listen and we get it.

Hello, I can relate to how you feel, it is an awful feeling and leaves us feeling lonely and isolated. As Lena16 said write to us here. I would also like you to go and see your Dr. tell her/him how you feel, it sounds like you need some medication. I take it every day and am glad to, it keeps me balanced and I enjoy my life, I am happy. I also have a wonderful therapist with whom I can tell her anything, she has helped me a lot, first of all she told me it is not my fault that I feel the way I do, it is an illness that is treatable. We changed my med's while with her, my Dr. did it for me, 20 mg to start then up to 50 mg and it is working, the side affects were none. We have to find the med's that will work for us.

Do not give up, there are millions of us who go thru this in the US, what a lot of suffering!!!

Try to think about how nice it will be once you get yourself back. Do not expect to change in a week, it takes time, we call it taking baby steps. I hope you get my post. I send you courage, strength, peace, love and big hugs.....Sprinkle 1.....

thank you for sharing your thoughts. this is a great place to vent. lots of people who listen and can relate. I agree with you. there are times I just want to stay in bed. I have found that the battle is in my mind... trying to refocus my thoughts at that moment as I struggle by speaking positive things about myself out loud. sometimes it takes longer than others but I eventually get out of bed and begin my daily journey. its a moment to moment some days. you were not created to be bound by these strongholds. you ... all of us were made to live an abundant and prosperous life. you are valuable. believe in yourself again. You are worth every effort my dear friend. Here if you wish to talk . you are never alone. hugs of encouragement.
