Hello everyone my name is Omar and I am from Dubai. I have been looking for some place where I can find people suffering from depression to feel that I am not alone. This is a fantastic website with lots of nice people and this is going to hwlp me recover.I have been suffering from depression since last ten years and I have been on different meds. I have recently started to excercise which I never used to have energy for. I used to do it but could never contiue it for so long. But this time I was determined and I have been doing it for two months only to find out that it really works to alleviate certain symptoms of depression. I also meditate and it relaxes me alot. Meds. therapies. excercise. meditation and yoga can really help lift the depression I believe no mater how severe it is.

Congratulations on achieving some success at relieving the symptoms of depression through exercise and meditation, meds and therapy... depression can be very difficult to manage as you may know already... remember if you have a bad day it will pass and keep building on the good days you have... sometimes it is one step forward 3 steps back... but each time it is one step closer to recovery...

take care

Hey Omar

Welcome! I am an Aussie, but was living in Dubai due to my husband's work. I really struggled to find support for depression in Dubai and whilst I was there I found this site! In fact, writing on here, and receiving the support from others really helped me during my time in Dubai.

I just wanted to say hi, and to let you know that I understand where you are from and can relate to it and to let you know that you are not alone.

Sending you lots of love and support,

Kimberly

PS. I used to write under the name Kimberly, but deleted my profile mid-last year. Then I started writing under the name wolveress - so you will see a little of my life in Dubai if you look that username up. Unfortunately my husband left me - so I now call myself 'newlife' - I guess for me it's a way of making a new start.

xoxo
