Hi all,
I just wanted to rant this morning because this morning I was given some unhelpful advice. When you're already struggling someone's "help" can feel so thoughtless.
Statements like "No one is coming to save you" not only feels so cliche, but honestly makes me feel worse as if it was a problem of willpower. It even makes me more anxious as if theres a time limit to get better..I wonder if anyone else feels even more down when they are handed these helpful tidbits of information. End rant.
I do...hate when people tell me 'just get over it' or 'only you can make yourself happy' etc. I know what their saying is true, but when I'm feeling down, it feels like my feelings are invalidated.
I think it's sometime better to just listen to someone than giving 'helpful' advice. That's why I mostly talk to certain people when I'm struggling because I know they'll listen to me or give me useful advice.

I am sorry Forever,
Have you talked to your therapist? Maybe you need a medication adjustment. I was getting depressed with the long winter. But the weather has changed so I am doing better. I have been able to get out for short walks and that has helped.
I hope you feel better soon.
Hugs, Karen...
