Like there's no hope for you...? So why bother trying anymore? sigh.. like you gave up on yourself a long time ago?

Yes, I go through periods of giving up, but then I realise life goes on, I can hide and give up but the world keeps going round. Eventually I've got to get out and live again.

I feel the same way. I often wonder what I'm doing with my life. But yes it sounds like the depression is taking over again, I know it is in my case.

Hang in there, things will get better soon

I feel like I have given up on ever feeling normal again. I keep waiting on the depression to lift but it doesn't. Meds aren't working. I don't have much hope of it getting better, meanwhile, I waste my life in bed or on the couch. I guess that could beconsider giving up.

No... just regrouping and getting ready for the next round. You're going to get really tired of that bed and couch at some point and it's going to motivate you. You're going to get so tired of it and the desire for what's out these is going to get you up and going. Not saying it will be easy or a miraculous healing experience where you wake up and it's all better but the motivation and desire will comeback enough for you to make the first steps.

Well, that is how I personally feel right now, InfiniteSadness. I feel like I've given up on "normalcy" and have to grudgingly accept that I will be on meds (that sometimes don't work) for the rest of my life. Sometimes I sit in bed like right now, thinking that my life is worthless and that I will never be happy.

However two weeks ago I was doing better. I was a lot stronger mentally; a few things really made me crash again... I've been crashing, getting kind of back up, and then crashing again constantly for two years now. Right now I don't think I'll ever get back up again, but at the same time I try to remember that I *have* felt better before. Sometimes it helps, sometimes not. :/

I just want you to know you are not alone and that I hope today's just a bad day for you.

Yeah, me, too. I'm sick of the bed/couch already but the world seems overwhelming when I go out into it, and I get tired so easily that I accomplish almost nothing. I know there are ties when I don't feel like this but I feel like I deserve it and there's no point in trying to get back there.

If you were to replant your life like a seed, how would you feel?

If you woke up today as you know what makes you feel better and followed that routine, how would you feel?

If you said who cares about them and what they say I have to worry about me, how would you feel?

If you thought too much and started transferring that energy to body, how would you feel?

If you stretched to get that blood flowing in the morning started your day off with vitamin B's, D's, and eat breakfast.... cereal again... ah never mind F**k it!

just crashed.

JUST CRASHED
cereal for the serotonin wakeup, "Just Crashed" brought to you by Nintendo

hmmm, 4 directions, and two buttons.
me thinks, me feels, me shrugs, me wonders I'm not bipolar.... its #&*$(*#& technology that is!

anybody still got a Gameboy with tetris OMG, if do... so jealous!

Dear Forum,

I lost my job a couple of months ago and feel weak and paralyzed. I got laid off after being promised a raise and full time. I feel I'm no longer needed and don't deserve to be here. I'm wondering why life is worth living.
