Hello friends

[Crystal999]

I have been struggling with depression and sleeplessness for a long time. I am not really sure what this forum is about, but I would like to connect with other people that have similar problems. Maybe we can help each other work through the pain

Welcome to the site. And that’s exactly what we’re here for. We share our experience, strength and hope with each other. I have a diagnosis of Major Depression/Anxiety Disorder and PTSD so I can identify with depression. It sucks. And it sucks the life and will right out of you. No motivation. No interest in things that used to interest me. Doom and gloom. Woe is me. I hate it.

I spent a year and a half in a breakdown but with professional help of a psychiatrist and therapist I was able to come out of it. The meds and counseling are doing their job. I still have a ways to go but at least I can get out of bed more days than not.

Keep posting and let us know how you’re doing.

Thanks for responding. It is difficult some days, but doing the best I can. And I love dogs and puppies ❤️

Welcome Crystal

You will get many people here with their suggestions. However if not already you need to discuss your needs and expectations with your GP and possibly you will need to discuss your concerns and expectations.

Are you able to relate to the actual cause of your Depression, this in turn to your actual lack of sleep, are you churning over fears and worries. If that is the problem you need to begin to relate, accept and deal with these problems that distract you.
