Happiness will never happen to me. I'm depressed all the time.

Yes, this is pretty much the way I feel about it too. I'm even to the point where I don't want to bother with suicide. I just want to go quietly... the sooner the better...

Though things may feel hopeless right now, you can't actually predict the future. Who knows what is coming up? Hold on.

Happiness...that elusive state of mind...I had that slippery fish in my grasp for nearly a year (Sept 2012 through Aug 2013), and before that experienced it intermittently from birth through 2006...just thinking about the happier times does contribute to the undercurrent of depression that I feel at the moment. I think that this is so because the "happiness" state of mind is "right there", kind of like a word on the tip of my tongue, or a sneeze that you know is going to happen any time soon but it just doesn't...
I do wish that all of us on the depression forums (and others that casually stop in) would be able to one day write a depression success story. I know that I once wrote one in the past - I hold on to the hope that the time to write that story will arrive again one day.. |

I don't know if I have ever truly had it. I definitely did as a little kid but ever since 7th grade not really. Short periods of it. Even when i am at my absolute best i get glimpses of it but mostly I get contentment when not depressed. I have learned to be pretty ok with contentment. even peace and serenity. happiness and joy...very fleeting. At this point in my life I have even learned to be content in a depression.

((( The Fox & the Hound ))) I feel exactly the same way. Please just keep hanging in there. As regretful said, I hope we can all some day post a depression "success story."

I feel the same way. There are things that give me temporary happiness and then BAM! my miserable life comes back looking for me and knocks me down. I guess one day we will all find happiness although I'm so hopeles about myself.

I know you're struggling to reach out IRL, but I really think you need to tell someone, there is help out there and the the sooner you get it the more it will help.

I feel this way too. Hang in there. I believe that in spite of depression, there is a beautiful wonderful purpose for all of us out there.

Well treatment and recovery are a really long process and I know how hard it is. I hate to see you continue to suffer though. It's your journey and not really for us to say.

When the pain of staying the same exceeds the pain of changing, then we change.
