Struggling

[theDgotme]

This is my very first post. I am struggling with depression right at this moment. I dont know how to shake it, i dont even know what is wrong. But im not happy, im extremely sad. I can barely get through my day without wanting to cry. I try to talk myself through it but it hasnt been working today. So im trying this support group. I just wish i knew what to do to feel better, nothing makes me happy anymore. **Head in hands**

Welcome to the group Dgotme. I am working through depression myself. I hope you find help in this group. I also rung some helplines. Some can help a little. I also went to my GP.

Welcome to the group. You’ll find a lot of people here who can identify with you. I can. But with my psychiatrist, therapist, support group, meds and meditation I seem to be relatively stable at the moment. Some bouts of sadness but they pass fairly quickly. Let us get to know you through posts and replies.

Welcome to the group. We all get what you are feeling. I'm so sorry you are having such a hard time. I hope you can find some relief soon. For me - it's meds, tapping, therapy at times, and exercise. Also, talking to a friend who gets it. Again, welcome!

hi and welcome to this wonderful forum, there are so many wonderful Knowledgable kind people that are willing to listen and offer support. It’s so hard sometimes not to feel sad and I battle it everyday but just get on here and vent, write and say what’s on your mind, it helps so much just putting it out there, hope you find some peace. We are all in the same boat and supporting each other is a huge comfort. Take care
