Depression Support Check-In: March 16th-21st, 2021
Greetings my beloved friends! I hope you're week has been wonderful. If you've been wondering why I create a check-in for 6 days, it seems that our usual leaders, who always check in on us, are not quite available this week. Some of them are on self care breaks. Thus, I will be covering their check-ins for this week.
Here's your check-in questions:
1) How is your week has been going? Thumbs up or thumbs down? Feel free to share us more.
2) Share with us something that happened to amaze you or give you the best memory recently?
3) Name your biggest pet peeves. (pet peeves mean something that a particular person finds especially annoying)
4) State a famous saying or your own that could benefit and motivate others.
Thank you everyone for attending this check-in. Your voice is truly appreciated. Keep in mind that we're here for you. I'll see you next time. Until then, stay safe and take care. We love and appreciate you so much.

1) How is your week has been going? Thumbs up or thumbs down? Feel free to share us more.
Clearly a thumbs down here. Our beloved cat passed away and there has been tons of family and work stress on top of that.
2) Share with us something that happened to amaze you or give you the best memory recently?
I had a good time last week going out by boat to an island with my family.
3) Name your biggest pet peeves. (pet peeves mean something that a particular person finds especially annoying)
I am not sure that I have one at the moment.
4) State a famous saying or your own that could benefit and motivate others.
"Caring for myself is not self-indulgence. It is self-preservation, and that is an act of political warfare." Audre Lorde
@bestVase7265
Really sorry for your loss . Stay strong. Hugs . 🧡.
Thank you very much. @calmsoulmeet
@bestVase7265
As your mourn your loss, I pray you find peace during the storms. That's a really good memory you had recently. I like the quote as well. Something to remember, 'caring for yourself, is caring for others'. It's really nice to speak with you again by the way❤️
Thank you. I continue to try to move forward, but it is exhausting. @MyNameIsNicole
1. This week has been "thumbs middle" some cool stuff coming on the horizon but nothing to celebrate yet 2. something that amazed me? The sheer audacity and assholery of people around me. By now this shouldn't be a surprise but I guess I'm still holding out hope for humankind 3. Pet peeve... when people say "ATM machine" or "PIN number" or, in my line of work "NIC card" 4. Idk I'm not very motivated myself
Always hold out the hope for humankind. There are lots of mean people out there who do horrible things, but the majority of us try to be better. We don't always succeed, but trying is everything. @toughCamp5721
1) my weeks been horrible because my thoughts 2) I can’t think of anything that amazed me recently 3) my biggest pet peeve is lying 4)my saying: there will always be roadblocks but you just have to get around them
I am sorry that your week has been so hard. What kinds of thoughts have you been trying to work through?@practicalStrawberries2858
@practicalStrawberries2858
I feel you. Sometimes our mind creates burdens for us. That's a nice quote, something to remember during hard times. Take care💖
@kdsyahirah
My week has been nothing short of horrible. I am just done with life . 5 years of depression have completely broken me from inside . It's like I have lost all skills and abilities I had . People of my age are getting married and taking giant strides in their careers . And here I am , nothing but a worthless piece of shit . My career is all but over . Who would want to hire a failure and incompetent person like me .
Sorry for the long rant . ☹️☹️ .
You don't need to compare yourself to anyone else. Every time that you do you just deepen the hole. You are unique and wonderful as you and your path is different than everyone else's. There are no set times for anything in life. What were you able to do on the job hunt this week? Did you chose one to apply for? You can do this. You are stronger than you know.@calmsoulmeet
@bestVase7265
No , I haven't chosen anything yet . ☹️ .
Well you can do it now just as easily as you could last week. Chose something that you don't even think you are going to get just to practice applying. You can do this. There are no risks involved. @calmsoulmeet
1) As Usual for the past month and a half not productive at all, I'm missing a lot on the university, family, and more ......
2) Yesterday I went for a walk since I didn't leave the apartment for a while, walking in the parks gives me some good vibes at least, also it reminds me of the previous moment.
3) Not being able to study for a month and a half, Whoever I used to study for 5 hours daily ........
4) Nothing in particular, but I'm sure every one of us who is suffering knows the reason why, The problem is we don't do anything about the situation to resolve it, just sitting wondering and dreaming false dreams, And hoping that it will be resolved by itself.
5) finally, I'd start today by jouraling then the morning I'll go for another walk.
The virus is making it so difficult for everyone. Sending hope and peace. @Fakeitillyoumakeit
So far this week definetly at a thumbs up. I was able to be positive about situations I would normally respond to in a negative light.. one step at a time till the negativity isn't even a thought anymore
@considerateAvocado8135 That's good to hear that you're doing great. Keep it up. *sending more love and positivity*
@considerateAvocado8135
Yay! Progress. I also want to remind you that negativity isn't always bad, especially if you're being realistic. It's not good to he pessimistic all the time though, so well done for seeing the positive side of things😊
@kdsyahirah
1) How is your week has been going? Thumbs up or thumbs down? Feel free to share us more.
Thumbs up. I had a really stressful week with exams. I didn't think I could continue, but I'm done and I'm back to studying for more exams. I'm home for a two-week break. So hopefully I'll have time to rest. Thank you so much Khalifa for covering my check-ins. I appreciate you so so much❤️
2) Share with us something that happened to amaze you or give you the best memory recently?
I remember how my best friend gave me a hug and a kiss on the cheek this week. I'm always the one to do that, and so it was really unexpected. I felt really loved.
3) Name your biggest pet peeves. (pet peeves mean something that a particular person finds especially annoying)
I hate when people aren't polite or touch my stuff without asking. I dislike a lot of things, because I'm really sensitive to things like touch, colour and behaviour.
4) State a famous saying or your own that could benefit and motivate others.
"It's not how far you run, but how well"
Glad to hear that your exams went well and that you can now rest a bit! I love unexpected hugs.@MyNameIsNicole
@bestVase7265
Yeah. I can't even rest that much, because I have other exams to write once my break is over. But that's one block down. I like hugs from the right people as well💖
I haven't been doing very well. My girlfriend just died and I've had a bad relapse. I've been feeling so hopeless and I don't know how much more I can take... I'm sorry for spilling all this on you. I just wanted someone to know
1) It is down. I lost my job. :(
2) My walking in the woods.
3) It is certain sound I don't really like.
4) "Just do it"
It's been busy at work this week, more exhausted than most days, especially when sleep had been an issue too. Maybe I shouldn't have registered for summer class, everything is too compact, I don't feel like I have enough time to study and complete assignments. I've just handed in my first Short Essay. Now, the second one is due June 3rd. The topics for the Research Paper was posted yesterday (21 topics to choose from, and of course, I'm going to choose one that has South Korea included), which will be due June 17th, with the final exam June 22nd. Everything is happening in the next month! I'm behind in studying the material.. I don't like the way this professor has the lessons presented. Each topic is an hour long video and it's not like they're powerpoint slides where he talks about it, and something I can copy down as notes, but it's just him talking while showing pictures (making it hard for me to know what notes I need to take). I went to read the text, and luckily found that almost everything he talks about in the videos is within the text. So, I might just end up studying and taking notes from the text, and just listen to his lessons to see if I need to add any additional information. I'm 3 topics behind though, this long weekend will be a busy time. Will try to do one topic per day. At least with a long weekend, next week will be a short week. And then, I won't have shifts again until 3rd week of June. So, I'll have to use my time wisely to finish that Short Essay and Research Paper!.
I have to make a trip sometime on Saturday to buy something, got a couple of nurses funding me to buy candy for the department. One nurse tells me, of all the candies that other people have brought in, the ones I buy tastes the best, so he's willing to fund me to buy them. Although he says it's not rush to get them, but I still feel pressured to buy them asap. I told another nurse about it last night, and she said she'd give me some money too.
So, I'll probably try and get up earlier and start my studying, then go out before noon to make the purchase (as taking a break)!~
It can be really hard when courses are condensed like that. It sounds like you are doing the right thing in how you are organizing stuff. Just don't look down and keep at it. You can do this. @Jaeteuk
