This is the second time I have been a member here. My depression is so bad that even typing this is an huge effort. I am not even sure what to say. I am living for my 14 year old daughter...my prozac bottle calls to me but I can't leave my daughter alone. I have no friends and my family has turned against me because I am mentally ill and they do not understand. My psychiatrist says my medicines are the perfect mix and my depression is all circumstantial. That does not make me feel better! The pain is too much and I feel as though I am suffocating. I don't know what else to say.

Hi, and welcome to HW.

Well, Ashbird, with not much to say...you actually said it all...or at least definitely enough for me to say I know exactly what you are saying and how you feel. It is hard when we are battling our demons and our families just don't get it. You try to explain it to them but they just have that blank stare and we just give up trying to explain it. Everyone here at the Depression forum of HW gets it, you don't have to feel alone anymore, we are all here to help one another and help you....sometimes just to listen when you need to vent. Please keep posting, we understand and it helps SOOOO much to talk to someone who finally listens and is not judging you.

I am so sorry that you are going through this.
It sounds like you are taking the steps to get better... are you currently in any type of therapy?

As far as your family and friends.. you are right they do not understand,and people tend to shy away from things they can't relate too. They are just not informed and that is very sad for them.

Please keep talking to us,we will be here for you.
