I hate when I finally tell family I think I am falling slowly into a depression and they dismiss me!!! Why?? I hate ignorant people. Hopefully my pdoc will be a bit more understanding and help me. I am terrified to fall into another depression this year. Alrready been hospitalized 4 times this year alone and 2 times last year...from March 2011 to March 2012 thats 6 times! I think I have a right to be a little bit scared! Oh well just deal with it I guess.

I feel for you. You just gotta fight and beat it. It sucks to constantly fall and fall and fall and fall and after awhile you wonder why you keep getting up. I wan't to be freaking happy, that is why I keep getting up because I believe one day that I will find it. Some or shall I say most people don't understand it, because they may know struggle but they don't know your struggle. People these days are very judgemental and lack compassion. I am sorry your family dismisses you and hope that you find your place in the world and that depression will stop finding you.

I have NEVER understood why family dismisses a family member when they say they're in TROUBLE!! If the shoe were on the other foot, boy would the feathers fly!
I guess I wouldn't give them the satisfaction of "falling." LOL I'd work my fanny off to make sure I stayed above water even tho I know how HARD that is. I've been depressed all my life so I know the fight - sometimes it's all you can do to breathe. But darn it, we've got to keep up the fight! We WILL win this battle- we HAVE to. We're all with you Dos! God bless. Hugs, Lee |

I'm sorry your family is doing that to you. I hope you have other people who you can turn to. If not, keep posting here. People here can empathize.
