Feeling down...

I'm not doing so well. Yesterday at night I couldn't stop myself from crying. I went to the bathroom so no one would see me. I don't usually cry- even when I'm feeling extremely bad, but yesterday I couldn't help it. Today I had a similar episode. I seem to be doing alright. I am not sleeping as I w...

I'm having a relapse- again. My grandma is taking me to see a psychiastry (I know it is misspelled, sorry about that) twice a week. We are also talking about taking meds, again. I know it is hard to find a new therapist, specially if you felt alright with the other one, but it is worth it. The worst...

from another world

I'm not feeling well. I feel more confortable in the darkness of my room while everyone is outside of my door. I went outside a few times to see if I could someone integrate myself and I realized I can't. I feel so awful and they seem so happy to me. It is a if we were in different worlds. This mood...

From my side of the fence, you certainly didn't say or post anything wrong.

You definately, without a doubt not weird.

Take care.


My mistake. I always think I'm doing something wrong...

returning to the land of the living

Yesterday I had to go to work. I work with children so I need to pretend to be enthusiastic. It wasn't easy, but doable.
I'm not feeling well. I'm afraid that I'm getting worst... My feelings of hopelessness are increasing.
I really wish I wouldn't be so messed up.

Within the four walls of my mind.

I'm not doing well. In fact, today I spent most of the say sleeping and alone. I have to be secluded when I'm trap in my mind. I can't cheer myself up. I can't snap out of it. I hate to be this helpless victim that is unable to save herself from the offender. I guess I have what I deserve. I don't t...

Re: I'm so frustrated at myself.

The problem I have is overcoming the futility I see in everything; but even more importantly I think, finding the self motivation. That's exactly my problem. Finding motivation is not easy and we really need to look into ourselves to find those key reasons we need to keep going. Last year I set sol...

I had the chance to read several self books (including depression for dummies) about depression. To be honest, not of them helped very much. The one book I found helpful is the 7 habits for highly effective people. I know it does not talk about depression, but it taught me values such as proactivity...
