hi there cristina,

Im not sure what condition you have but it might be a good idea to see you local gp for some advice hunny.
Have a chat with her/him and they will be able to help you. Being here at depnet you have made a great start to self recovery but you may need more. You not only have yourself but you have us here, your depnet family, who will care and support you. Please dont feel so alone, we are here for you sweetheart.
Cheers Amanda xxxxx

Did your family take you to hospital or to a therapist? Not sure if you're on meds - but I think they would help you - but in your case you 100% need therapy as well. I hope you're getting some.

You will come through this - it's just bloody awful at the moment. Everything passes.

Love Kimberly

this may be off-kilter, but:

it can be hard for others to deal with your situation - they likely feel helpless too. and don't understand what has happened or what to do about it. they may feel that only you can fix it, and they are right, although you will need support when you start to fight back.

but... hitting bottom is good. crises are good. that is when you realise that you cannot go on living as you have been. the realisation is hard, it hurts, it torments you. feelings of helplessness are normal. grieving for where you are at is normal. all this gives you more understanding of where you have been and what it means than you can imagine now. it will make you strong in the future. keep fighting. you will be ok. feel and then fight for the person you know you are deep down, the person who believes that you are important and deserving of respect and is unbeatable. you are not beaten now, just down. you will get up. we all believe in you.

take care

Hi Chris,

Know waht you mean - have you some one who you
can talk to? Any one local, distant relative
maybe?

There will be days like that, I know what you mean.

I went for a 45min walk today up a mountain - really cleared my head - not sure if it was the exrcise or fresh air but I think its good to change the scene for a while and get some excersise.

Feeling 8/10 today, was 3/10 last week,,,,
If find it good to think of the positives these days compared to the hoplessness I felt a few months ago when I started taking medication.

Chin up eh!

Good Wood.
