Hi everyone

I have been here a couple of days, reading and stuff... but what I noticed is that most people who post here are young - in their teens, even. I am in my fifties and have been depressed on and off all my life, but at the moment at my worst. Is it mainly young people who get depressed nowadays? are there any older people here? I feel old and out of things and like I don't really belong anywhere, not even here. I know I am being irrational and self-pitying and that annoys me and makes me feel even worse - but I am pretty sure you all know about that. I would just like to hear an older voice say it is gonna get better. Otherwise I don't really have much of a life to look forward to, no reason to try. At least when you are young, you can half-way believe that you still have time for things to turn around.

Blah.. I am so blue today.
