I'm needing some help. Depression has slowed down my mind so much, its hard to get this out.
This week, I've been posting s.o.s.msgs here but erasing them after getting no response, it was just too disheartening.
I really need someone to talk to. If this post is unanswered, I'll just move on.
Hi there....I'm sorry you haven't gotten any replies...as for me I haven't been getting on here that much...

Thank you for responding! I don't know where to start. Depression has really gotten a hold of me lately. I may have to call a hotline or something. I just need to get some things out.
Oh the old ugly depression....been there done that....have you tried focusing on positives in your life? You're more than welcome to pm me if you'd like...
I'll do my best for you...
More sparkles & dump trucks Blackdog1!
I am sorry to hear that your other posts didn’t get any responses. Sometimes the posts get shuffled down depending on what’s going on, on the page. I am here if you need to chat. 🙂
Thank you.
I know there's alot of self pity in my post.
I just couldn't help it today.
Thanks for responding.
No need to apologize. We’re here for you! I apologize for missing your other posts!!
Ive been looking all over the internet the past 1 1/2 days for help. There must be a hundred different treatments. A thousand. All take money I don't have lol.
It's just overwhelming and just too much for a already depressed mind.
My nurse practitioner knows I struggle with depression and anxiety. This latest crisis, she doesn't know of. I called my therapist on Tuesday but I just sat there with the phone and could barely say hello. I feel like why even bother, it's always been like this, it wont change.
I'm not trying to sound pitiful, but these are really the inner workings of my mind.
I have felt like that too. Like I don’t even want to talk about it because where would I start for one, and 2 sometimes I’m just talked out! So the thought of trying to explain everything is just ehh. What if you wrote/typed out what is going on? You could then send it to your therapist and nurse practitioner
Maybe this could work with the therapist.
The clinic has a website so I could send it as an attachment on an email.
When I get like this, it feels like depression was this very long train stretching back years and I cant separate what depressed me two days ago with what depressed me 20 years ago. Its like there's just one depression and its who I am. Change is impossible and recovery is a little joke.
When Im not so depressed, I can separate things: success, struggle, backslide, struggle, success etc....
But not right now. Right now its one unit.
It’s hard to break things down, and that’s ok. You don’t have to know an exact time line or an exact reason. I have spent so much time looking for reasons...I’ve come to the conclusion that there doesn’t have to be a reason. I think we yearn for reasons so we know specifically what to fix or stop if you will. Anxiety/depression just don’t work like that unfortunately.
Yes I agree.
My mind feels tired. I wish there was something for a tired mind.
Me too. Talking to a friend helps the most, even when you think they don’t want to hear it or you don’t want to say it. Talk about anything, just keep talking. Come here and talk here. I’ll chat with you whenever I’m available. Be kind to yourself (I have to work on this all the time)
I'm the same way. Talking with a friend usually helps the most. I was feeling like I didn't have anyone but I feel a little better now and I will make a note to my therapist.
I need to get the ball rolling but keep working at keeping it in motion, if you know what I mean.
Hi Krn
I just wanted to let you know, I reached out to therapist. She wouldn't be able to see me until Wednesday and there was no way to attach a msg on the website and no email either.
But thank you, I liked the suggestion.
How do you feel about reading the letter to her?
I think its a good idea. Just sharing my state of mind when its like this usually helps.
Since I won't be able to communicate with her until next week, I must find someone to share with. Imshivam recommended forming a group to share. I think that's a good idea. I have something Id like to share but its on a wav file and I don't know how to attach that.
I have been unable to speak on the phone to my psychiatrist/therapist office without crying too and it sucks. I can relate to that experience. I have been on meds and they have taken away those very low “lows”. I’m still depressed and have issues but my crying spells have resolved for now. U are doing the right thing by reaching out for help even though it’s one of the toughest things to do. I’m here for u
Thank you for your kind response!
Me too certainly in the same case. Let's fight with it together.
How are you today Blackdog1?
Im struggling but Ive gotten some kind words which mean alot.
I’m happy for you. May you have many beautiful moments today! ❤️
