I don't know what to do anymore. Its just this constant battle I don't want to fight and facade I have less and less energy to maintain.
How do I even give up...
I just can't go anymore... I don't know what to do anymore.

and I'm sorry so be such a downer
Hope everyone's having a really happy Christmas/holidays

Sending you a gentle hug so you know you're NOT alone! Try to remember that you're having the Holiday Blues along with all the other crap and that the holidays will be over in just a few more days. You can do it! You're stronger than you think or you wouldn't have come here to post!

Don't give up! Honey, you have a whole life ahead of you. Even if it seems like that life will be full of pain and anguish, it won't be! God promised he'd never give us more than we can handle, so HE knows you're strong enough to handle what you feel right now. And if HE thinks so, who are YOU to doubt it? That's the thought that's helped me over so many of the dark times in my life and I hope it will help you today.

Try to put yourself in a good place ... somewhere you felt warm and loved even if it was only for a short time. You CAN make it thru the holidays! You deserve to be happy! Please remember that!

TurquoiseSea,

I have been ready for Christmas to be over about three days ago. Christmas has just felt very overwhelming for me too this year.

There is no rule that says you have to be happy this time of year. Joyful is a good goal. You can have joy, even when circumstances don't yield happiness.

Hugs,

EJ

Please don't apologise. It is better to post than to keep it all inside. Plus the spirit of Christmas in my opinion is to think about others not all the present giving!

I wish i could say something that could allow you some relief. I know how blummin' difficult it is maintaining a facade.
I'm sorry i do not know you personal circumstances but i have been part of that battle with life and it is so hard.

All i can offer are my prayers, love and support. I hope these give you some energy if even for one more day.

I am sorry you are having a hard time right now, turquoisesea.

I have had depression and can appreciate your pain. I don't have any answers but I wanted to let you know you are not alone.

Dear Turquoisesea,
Life is hard and as much as you try to figure it out
the harder it is to live it, lol. To say be happy and all will be well is a crock of s***. LIFE at best is always in
your face, something or another always happens and all you
can do is lift your eyes upward and tell yourself things
aren't perfect and they will never get any better, unless
you can find that silver lining, something to learn or
grasp to make it real and personal, to take a look from
the shoulders of this troubled world which is all bearing
down on us from every direction. Its not easy this life,
but its not that hard either, find your center and go slow.
Try to see positives in everything. Good Luck.
Take care DB
