Depression Understood Forums

Hello Keer, Glad to hear that your daughter is doing well :) I know you're worried about that 5% but that's normal, just be glad that there's an advance warning so you can prepare for the worse. I honestly believe negative thoughts attract negative things so try to limit that and truly believe in yo...

Hello Jazzy, Thank you for sharing your story. You'll be surprised how many people feel the way you do but put on a front to disguise it just to fit in with everyone else. I find that sometimes it's the people who seem the happiest on the outside are the most depressed on the inside. It's like const...

So sad to see you go Doogie, I got used to seeing your name come up on here, its going to be weird without you :cry: Thank you so much for all that you have contributed on here, lots of people have benefitted from your posts. I am glad that you are moving on and hopefully deal with your own issues p...

Hello blue eyed, I am glad you found this place and hope you feel better after writing that out. If I was you, I would ask myself a few questions: 1. What is my dream job? 2. Do I still want to be with this man? 3. Do I want to stay in Portugal? I guess in some ways these questions tie in with each ...

Hello, You are such a strong and kind hearted young lady. I am sorry to hear about your situation, it must be terrible not having a stable home and not knowing where you will end up. It is great to hear that you are doing what you can to help your family out, sticking together and playing your part....

Ok, when someone is starving they will eat anything and being desperate also gives off the same vibe, that you're just going for anything that moves. Whether you do or not, people can still perceive it that way. People like to feel special and not just a number. I'm not saying don't try at all but d...

To Itsonlyme... I honestly hope you find what you are looking for. Although I don't know you in person, you do come across as a great guy! I hope some day you would come back on here with a post saying you have found a woman you are crazy about who is also crazy about you :D You may not agree with w...

To Itsonlyme, I think your problem lies right here: Well I've had 18 years to objectively look at what I really need > a loving, caring, intimate relationship. .... which will never happen. Period. Sounds like you've already decided your own fate, you say those words as if its a fact. If you think i...

Hello Ollie, I once thought I met the guy I wanted to be with for the rest of my life, actually felt like how you do towards your girlfriend now and I gave up a lot of things for him. However, it was such a bad mistake and I am still suffering the consequences till this day. Was it worth it? Definit...

Wow, totally not what I expected. You look awesome! Well done for getting in such good shape, it has really paid off. To be frank if I met you, I'd feel a little intimidated because you have this mean, tough guy Look. Truth is you really are lovely and a talented photographer, so people shouldn't ju...

Hello Joshua, Thank you for sharing your story. You say you spend your time off watching TV, eating and playing games, but what would you rather be doing instead? Is there a reason why you don't have wife and kids? is this something you want? Many of my workaholic friends also don't have a wife and ...

Hello Sarbear25, I guess that job wasn't right for you, so in some way I'm glad you're out of there as they only would have picked on you and stressed you out even more. There are lots of characters in the work place, some people go in to work and some just enjoy the drama. Job hopping isn't so bad,...

I know you feel insecure about your looks but I wouldn't say that's the sole reason you get turned down. Fair enough some people may not be attracted to you but there are other factors too, such as your approach, whether there is any chemistry, whether that person is single and looking etc. Just bec...

Hello Matthew,

Welcome to the forums.

I am sorry that you feel that way. Is there anything specific that is bothering you? How long have you been feeling like this?

Hello Doogie, I still remember you from your first post. There are always new comers here but you've stuck around helping others so its always nice to see a name I recognise come up in posts. You've been giving good advice and sound so positive but i was just wondering how things are with you? I hop...
