Anyone else feeling great and then suddenly crashed hard?

I am totally new to this group. I joined just hoping to get some relief from my pain by hearing there is someone else out there that has had a similar experience. I have been sick with a severe depression over a year. The last 2 weeks I finally started to feel good again, almost like my old self. Over a matter of days, my mood has been slowly deteriorating. Today, I find myself in the worst place I have been in many months. Anyone with a similar experience and made it back out of the deep black hole?

Something similar, but still in black hole, out of pandemic blues/etc, but an old complaint raising it's grubby finger again? 🥴🥴 good luck👍

Hi and welcome aboard! You are among friends here.Our life's journeys go up and down, and are full of going forwards and stepping backs. I'm sorry that you are in a bad place right now. I'm sure you've gotten through hard times before, though. My psychiatrist likes to remind me that I've gotten through hard times before. This isn't exactly helpful to hear when I'm deep in depression, but once I get to a better place I'm able to think back and say to myself Yeah! He's right! I have come out on the other side of hard times before!

Keep on keeping on! You are doing the best you can. Know that is enough!

Welcome to the club and thanks for sharing, I know depression isn't easy to deal with. It comes and goes then when ya least expect it, BAM! It sneaks back up on you. I've had plenty of dark days in what feels like being stuck in a black hole but even though nobody quite knows what's ahead like what comes after or at the end of a Black hole I believe it's LIGHT, LOVE and HAPPINESS and after suffering and enduring so much pain you will overcome what feels to be impossible. If you believe in yourself and with the right help and support you will get out of it. Best Wishes. -Luna
