Hi, this is a post comming from someone who is also very depressed at times. I just want to say, guys hang in there, nothnig is THAT bad, I promise. The thing that makes me so down somtimes, is seeing my dad in rehab for depression and alchaholism. It makes me feel like the further down the road I get, the worse off I will be, because it runs it my family. I have severe anxiety, Im a hypocondriac, and I have various other issues. I have finally come to terms with this and realized that depression is a real thing its no joke, it doesnt just go away it isnt just for people who others would call "wierd" , if a guy wearing black cloths and face makup is wierd, then I promise Im wierder because if hes depressed he wouldnt wanna take a look in my head because I promise its all the more blacker, people need help, and people like us need each other. Ive been plauged with this for over 5 years now and it feels like its slowly killing me, Ive finally decided to start taking medicine, before I wouldnt because I didnt like the idea of needing a drug to control my head and not being able to do it on my own. Anyways, to get back on subject, the only thnig that helps me is following my dreams, it may sound dumb, but there is SOMTHING out there everyone wants to do and has always wanted to do( for me there are many), not only does thing take my mind off ALOT of things, it gives me a end goal that I just cant wait to reach, whatever it is, persue it, and mabey it will work for you too. :wink:

ginson, you are very brave and appear to have been through a lot. My personal opinion is those who dress all black, white foundation and that sort of thing don't know half of what it's like to be depressed. Most truly depressed people do not show many signs. Following your dreams doesn't sound corny to me at all. I can see how that would keep one going. Currently I don't really have any dreams as I'm still deciding what I want to do with my life. Thanks for posting.

Thanx for posting this. I was going to post something along those lines, something to cheer everybody up. It seems like everybody is in a huge depression anymore, but sometimes, I think people focus on the negative way too much, and when you do that, you're just attracting more negative shit. That's why I'm trying to be a more loving person, to see the brighter side, and there definitely is. It's just a matter of waiting it out, having faith, and showing a positive energy. Sometimes, in a really strange way, I see the fucked up part of life to be beautiful in the sense that we're so strong to come out of shit, and to learn from it, and to see better days after it all. We hold those memories, and it's not time wasted. I think things are cool about everybody, I mean the weird shit in life is what makes it interesting, and i embrace it, everyone's character. Sure, i feel like cutting my wrists sometimes or stabbing a knife straight through my heart, but then I remember what effect I'll have on ppl around me and how one phonecall to my best friend can put me back in place. So the answer is to connect with ppl, cuz nobody is alone, and showing that kind of love is what keeps you going. ppl thrive on it, and you're sure to find it somewhere, but it starts with you. ookay, im getting realli sappy, sorry, but this is all my opinion, so i hope it helps.
