Does anyone feel left out or ... Or....

I don't think any of us want to belong to this "group" as in being depressed

People who haven't been there will never get it, especially some doctors

My rant for the day

WHY do they label us and hurt us even more. WHY

((((((( Fuzzybear! )))))))

If I do not much feel left out (I'm thinking of the entirety of my present life), it is largely because depression and the meds used to treat depression and anxiety have greatly diminished my capacity for feeling left out.

I am idled on the side of life. The frustration is present but remains repressed for the time being.

I wish I knew the answers to your questions, other than I do feel if I didn't suffer from depression I would not need in the forum. Of couse, the chance of my overcoming it, is slim.
And you are right, people on the outside don't understand our pain. for ranting.

The label(s) hurt me more in the beginning. Fear more than anything. But once I took a deep breath, I realized they (the doctors) only do it so they can try to understand us. As you're right. Most of them will never get it (unless they have the same diagnosis... and you never know, they might - depression, after all, does not discriminate.. nor do many other mental illnesses). It's not the label that scares me now. Now what scares me most is the fear that I'm faking it. Which is strange, because I know these emotions are real. That doesn't stop me from thinking that I don't 'fit in'. That I don't belong to the 'groups' I've been put in.

I had a friend that suggested I was faking it. She was trying to help in her own way, because it all confuses her. But I don't think she realized how much damage she did by suggesting it. Now, I feel even more constantly like I'm not like others in these 'groups'.

People on the outside really don't understand. And I don't want to wish they did, because that would mean wishing this pain on them and I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

Always feel completely left out. I never thought my life would come to this.
