its hard to look forward to a life when you know that you are a terrible person. to watch people suffer a world of people suffering, i have only seen peoples humanitarians side because they love me. But why do people course through life so strong and unsheathed by the daily struggles and indifference to just pretend everythings ok. Does life actually get better or is it all an illusion for the naive minds of the young. Somtimes i feel i am to wise for my own good, i have a realistic mind, a mind that sets me far from others but also closer to people than before. I dont know how to move forward, i make bad decisions and are leading down a road i dontwanna follow the solution seems clear, but it is harder than it seems.

From where I stand, it does get better for many but not for all. Oh, and it gets better for all sorts of people, not just for the ones with the "right" traits.

Before moving forward, it's good to have an idea of where you want to go. Do you have a vision of that?

Of course, even as some diseases attack the body, depression attacks the mind and spirit (and body). Vision, passion, direction -- all these can be so much harder to nurture while struggling with depression.

Do you have a treatment plan? Does that plan involve more than meds and therapy?

Life is better than it seems now, trust me. I have been depressed for nearly 8 years, though the intensity varies sometimes, and I know there are times when nothing seems worth staying around for... but then, you spend time with people you love and who love you, and you keep trying to dig your way out of your hole because you love them. Disappointment and discouragement are as much a part of life as happiness and encouragement are- in fact, you can't have one without the other. We would never know what darkness is if we had never seen light... and with help, you can recover from depression and live (not just function)! Feel free to msg me anytime, although I'm not here very regularly

Thankyou, your guidance from both of yo helps, it really does. It's just hard sometimes. And I am on meds and have been going through psychotherapy. Relieves temporary stresses but it all comes back. I guess I'm surrounded by unhappy person terefore making me unhappy with them. Stressful life but yes life is worth struggles for. Family, I guess it's just hard when they don't deserve. It.

This is significant. Although depression can easily exist on it's own, people and events will fuel it. Meds and therapy can offset such conditions only so much.

A break from one's usual surroundings can help. Please keep posting.
