Nighttime always made things feel worse

When I would lay still at night and I wasn’t distracting myself with a flurry of activity, I always felt so alone. Now I can look at posts from our group and it really helps. I’m so thankful 💛

It's nice to have a place to go to when you want to feel still or less alone.

That's so wonderful. Me too. Somehow because of finding people who share the same. I learned a lot about my depression and anxiety. I learned that these are symptoms of that and I am not just going crazy hahaha.

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

We aren’t crazy. We live with symptoms and I’m learning to manage them. Sharing without secrecy has been my most important part of moving forward. So glad I found this site where people just understand 💛

Nighttime is harder for me also. Between the dark and the quietness it gets bad at times.

Especially in the middle of the night. Many of us have a hard time sleeping. In fact the darker hours are the busiest. But a lot of our members are in the UK and they're awake and into their days. So they have a reason to be awake. 😱

That’s comforting. I’m in the US...I’ll always find someone and they can get me😊
