just feeling really down at the moment. Like nothing in my life can go right. I remember these feelings of hopelessness and feeling really down from when i was in the deep depths of depression. I even seen my doctor today and i totally lied to her, i told her that I was feeling ok and not depressed- TOTAL LIE. I'm struggling but yet i want to struggle on my own. but it's amazing how close friends know you aint right. My friend from work rang me asking if i was truly ok, i told her no. but i couldn't really give her any other explanation than that. sure i'm worried about dad, but it's more than that. Dad's accident was the straw thwt broke the camels back so to speak. arhh i don't know what to do!!!

It sounds like you are a very strong person...
But dont lie about the way you feel, ive spent years not telling the doctors the complete truth and it has gotten me nowhere.
Ive learnt you dont get anywhere on your own.
Please embrace those who care for you. They care for a reason!

You need to tell the doctor the truth about how you are feeling. How are they supposed to treat you if you keep saying everything is fine, when it isn't.

Hope dad is doing better. I know it must be hard to be not near him but remember there is the phone and you have your mum who can keep in touch with you.

Go Esp!!!
