Finding my way.
As someone who basically has no friends, no family or anyone else to say the things that are in my mind to. Hopefully I can do that here. It's pretty a really tough month, I can't lie. It knocked me down and out for a while. At this point I don't know what to believe in, what my mind tells me and what is reality becomes two different things where the lines are blurred. Depression has really taken its toll on me. I never go out to do things. I don't talk to or associate with anyone really. I have gotten where I hermit here on my couch and now I'm here. Idk what I expect to find. Or if I will find anything at all. But for some reason I keep trying. Keep looking for anything that may give a semblance of hope.
@Bhere Hope is hard. Hope means change and the possibility of failure. But hope is worth it. Depression is tough, but you already know that. I have struggled with it for a long time. And there was a point when, like you, I "cocooned" myself away from the world. Then, I decided to take a short walk every day. It didn't cure me, but it started opening me up. The same thing might not work for you, but there is something. My daily walks are still a hugely important part of my journey. If you want to talk more, please reach out. I hope that you start finding what you need.
I admit, trying to do just about anything is a battle with myself. The weather is clearing up it seems instead of the constant rain. Maybe I'll find a place to walk. I don't know if it will help but I will try anything at this point.
@Bhere I remember being in that place. Don't give up! Finding hope isn't easy, but I know you can do it. You were strong enough to reach out. That is a great first step, and it means that you will be strong enough for the next one as well.
Thank you. I appreciate that. Probably the most supportive thing I've heard in some time. I needed that.
@Bhere You are very welcome. Please keep me updated, if you don't mind. I would love to be a cheerleader for you.
Thank you. I'd be happy to. Feel free to check-in as well. I'll root for you too. And I can be easily distracted and go off in left field. So sometimes I need someone to be like, hey over here.
@Bhere I would be glad to have you rooting for me. Thank you.
I got your back like a vertibrae. Idk how to message on here but I think we can figure something out
There is a forum called Pen Pals that lets you label your own conversation. Would you like to do that?
Sure I can try that
