Something you all don't know about me is that I have been in this same downward spiral for approximately 6 1/2 years! You'd think by now that there'd be some improvement with me, but there hasn't been. To me, this suggests that I am just not capable of helping myself, and that things are too deep to, for lack of a better word, fix. I know that someone day soon, I will be at rest, and all of this chaos/craziness I'm dealing will b completely foreign to me. But, in the meantime, I don't want to continue wasting anyone's time. I'm sorry, and thank you to the two people who responded to my previous post. I appreciate it.

I feel the same way...like I'm not depressed enough to post here or that others have better reasons for being depressed than I do or that I'm never going to get better so I shouldn't waste people's time, but I have posted things here for no apparent reason other than to just not have to keep everything to myself anymore, and I feel like it has helped. I don't think anything I post is helping others or even worth reading, but nobody has told me to stop or told me I'm annoying them or that I don't belong here, so I'm going to continue. If posting anything here helps you feel even a little bit better, I hope you continue. There isn't a single person in my life I feel comfortable talking about anything serious with or feel like I could tell my problems to without being judged. Feeling like I can write anything here is such a relief. Keep posting if it helps
