ok this is my second post and I still don't know what I am doing. Posting or even thinking about it gets me anxious and there is a tight ball in my chest. If anyone could tell me the best way to do this or is willing to "hold my hand" through it I would be very grateful. I am safe right now and have support from my family but the only person I can really talk to is my therapist; my wife starts to cry and I feel guilty and worse. I have a friend that I make sure I call him every day. We set a time so at least in my mind I have a commitment to make and I keep going. he is great but doesn't understand what I am going through and I don't wish to burden him more. Thank you for reading.

gonzorob, please just keep posting what's on your mind. You'll find that everyone on PC is very non-judgmental, and we'll try to support you in whatever way we can. I don't know what else to say, so I'll just give you a hug:

Depending on what time a thread is posted it might take some time to get replies but overall the depression form is a great place to get support. There isn't any correct way to post here, as others have said it's a friendly supportive forum.

I'm sorry it's so difficult for you right now. It is hard for those who have never experienced real depression to understand and also hard for them to understand why it is so hard why they themselves are not enough to snap you out of it. Often many of us here end up feeling guilty for how those around us feel bad too. Do try not to take on their emotions as part of your burden, they feel bad because they care. Do try not to take on this extra burden. Post here as often as you need to. It helps to know you are not alone.

Welcome. You are doing just fine with your post. Read the threads and keep posting. I think it is up to us to build a support network. Sounds like you have done that. It is not really fair for our family to be primary support, although they should be part of it. I am afraid these last two years I have been to much of an emotional and financial burden on my family. I didn't have a choice and had to come home to Michigan. So it is building a support network all over again. I am so glad I found these forums. I have my pdoc and a few friends who also suffer. My pdoc is like a T as well. We at least need some outlet that we can tell absolutely every thing to. Even if it is one friend or an online group.
