Struggling with Depression

I feel like my depression is getting out of hand lately. I can quiet my anxiety down a lil more lately. But my depression is eating me alive. It’s like every second I’m awake, I don’t want to be. I just want to go to sleep forever. I hate this feeling.

We're here for you. I'm so sorry. I've noticed that when I'm depressed shaming myself makes it worse so just accepting yourself exactly as you are right now will be helpful, I think. Do you have a therapist? I'm so sorry it's such a dark place right now. It's unfair that even though it is a very real disease, it is invisible to others

It’s crazy cause I feel so dead, and yet I still want to not be alive. But I’m mainly suffer with suicidal ideation. I can stop myself from doing something thankfully.

Thank you. Yes I know shaming myself is worse. I’m trying to fight it with things I like about myself. And yes, I do. However, I can barely get appointments. They’re usually a month or two apart. And they won’t give me any more.

I'm there right now. All I want to do is sleep. If I didn't have to use the bathroom I'd probably stay in bed all day. You are not alone. I just take it one day at a time and one step at a time.

I’m sorry you’re going through this too. I am the same. I would not eat and just sleep all the time if I could. But my dreams love to attack me and I dream vividly every single night haha

What started the depression recently?

I started getting worse when I was in a weird relationship last year. And it continued on. Then I started being around family and I’m trans and they don’t accept me at all, so that added onto it. Recently I developed a major crush on this girl. I thought she liked me too, cause our vibe is crazy. It still is. But she started talking about how she’s talking to this dude now. My heart sunk, and I went back into my slump. Only was happyish again for a short time. For me depression comes in waves. Back and forth. It’s either bad but manageable or so bad I can’t manage.
