How are you feeling?

[jonas89]

Thanks. I'm the same, in the feeling ashamed of my struggle with depression. Even though, I shouldn't. Just tried explaining to my mother I need help a moment ago, and, judging my her reaction, she's wasn't in the least bit interested in what I was saying. But then again she never been one to talk about problem. Everytime I try to, she avoids the situation by ignoring me or changing the subject.

Right now, I'm seeing what other options are available - my mum suggested antidepressants but I'm not 100% sure.

Medication could help you, they don't work for everybody as you probably know. They made me just sick, so therapy worked out best for me.

Good after this commercial I did sound for; I hadn't done anything for a while till then, took up a lot of pre-stress but went really well. Maybe now I can get back to living life!

^ A Lemur sighting!

That's great!

Yeah, I'm aware medication may or may not help. It depends on the person, I suppose. Though, I think the only reason my mum suggests antidepressants is because therapy didn't work out for her. Apparently she was told she was "beyond help", or so she tells me. But, surely, that doesn't mean the same will be true of me, does it?

No like you said it depends on the person, you don't know what works until you try it out.

I think I'll probably give therapy a try. I mean, why not? Since I've been trying to get to the root cause of my anxiety and depression issues and wondering why I am the way I am. Beside, it'd make a change from writing in my journal, not that writing stuff down hasn't help. It's just raised more questions than answers, questions my family - and in particularly my mum - don't seem to want to acknowledge.

Thanks Pheonixx! Maybe Lemurs won't be such an endangered species now...

All that I can say is that therapy helped me a lot, you don't learn much on anxiety or depression by taking medication alone. I know more about myself and how to ask myself the right questions and find answers when I have to do something that fear or start to feel anxious and all those feelings. I have much more tools now to help myself with

Exhausted and a bit vulnerable.... Okay, very vulnerable. Like I've exposed too much of myself.

Today has been a long day. It was pretty good overall though, besides being around a crap ton of people, meeting new people, talking to new people, and having to get my photo id done.

It's weird, I usually feel relieved as soon as I leave these types of settings, then I'm happy to finally be home and to relax, only to soon feel pretty depressed for a bit afterwards. Anyone else get like this? Seems to be very common for me.

 

[GhastlyCC]

I sunk pretty deep into the deep murky depths of depression today for a few hours.
Broke down.
It's hard to keep your head up or look at things from a different perspective when you're that low.... it's nothing but "water"
But I managed to make myself feel quite a bit better.
A battle in my own mind.
I wouldn't say I won....But I made it to safety.

 

[goldold]

all I know is that im not happy.

 

[pop-princess]

Don't let that bring you down, you're much stronger than that, Im sure of that just try to learn from it what ever the reason is and used it later on in life to make you stronger. just keep yourself busy and don't let those negative words come to you, I know it can be hard but you'll get there eventually.

Thank you for your words!
Yeah I should probably try to keep myself busy, it's true. I guess by every hour that passes I feel a little better.

I'm a combination of drowsy, lazy, content, and worked.

 

[Shyangel]

I'm feeling in the mood to have fun...but, no fun around.

Well, now I'm gonna go down stairs to eat, be back later. Peace!

 

[superfluouslyme]

I really need to make an appointment with the dentist, but I really, really don't want to.

 

[MikeyC]

Lost.

Found you.

Enjoy your fooding.

I really need to make an appointment with the dentist, but I really, really don't want to.

I haven't been to the dentist in over a decade. Is it essential you make an appointment?

Unfortunately, yes. I've been avoiding it for some time now.

Okay. Just don't watch any dentist-themed horror movies beforehand!
