Depression Understood Forums

Just introducing myself now. Don't really have the energy to spill my life story tonight. I just need a place where I can talk without having people judge or shower me with pity. I've lived with the classic depression, anxiety, social phobia stuff for a long time. As you know, it is a constant roller coaster ride. I hope I can provide support for others like myself as well.

Hey Will,
I just logged on for the first time in months and Im trying to deal now with a depression-state myself. I have similar challenges, anxiety, OCD, but worst of all, bipolar mood swings.

Anyways, what brought me to this post was the post subject, especially the "virtually no support system" part. I just had the same thought myself in terms of my life, so that's why I logged on, to use the support system of this forum.

Just a bit about recent struggles: I basically went into a trigger-less depression that I thought was just exaustion, but it grew quickly worse over the course of a few days, sleeping too much, no desire for excersize, bad eating habits, that type of thing.

Its not all bad though, I have energy at times to do some schoolwork (not enough as i would like), and I talk to people throughout the day at my dorm, but the conversations are short sometimes, and don't address the dark details of my life.

Well, best of luck, and welcome to the forum!
