I am depressed. And for me those are hard words to say. Words which I have trouble explaining to myself let alone others. For the past year or so I keep going back and forth am I depressed? Do I have depression? Am I just hyper aware because of the groups I am apart of? Tonight I was watching Supernatural (The show whose actors first gave me permission to think I might be depressed) and one of the characters said We need to kill the Darkness and I dont think I can and I realized once again I cant deal with my own Darkness by myself either. I am depressed. I am admiting that here. I hope I can find others to help me in my fight.

Dear agreeableWatermelon4714,

First of all I just want to say well done for having the courage to admit to yourself, and post on this forum. There are so, so many people on this site who suffer from some sort of mental illness and I think I can safely say that coming to terms with that did not come easy for most. I myself spent years wondering about the state of my own mental health before I plucked up the courage to seek help. But that's what makes 7Cups such a wonderful site! There are so many people here who know exactly what you're going through, and they want to help you!

Please know that we have your back in this fight against your darkness. Feel free to message me anytime lovely :) Take care! x
