into depression after years of not being depressed. nothing to do with chemical imbalance but life in general. in the last year I have had to deal with a few deaths of close family members with more to come soon. not really looking for responses but need to get out why I don't seem to be around so much anymore. first there was my dads cancer diagnosis. then my aunt died suddenly. I was her contact person for drs and hospitals. Then in September I lost my uncle. I stayed with him for the last few days of his life. My brother whom I was close to was killed. We found out the same week that my husbands brother has cancer. tonight they tell us he only has a couple of months left. then we go back to my dad. his dr is trying hard to keep him alive until his great granddaughter is born next month. please can it just stop??? I am not sleeping anymore and the depression is getting bad for me.
