always getting nowhere. fighting to keep my head above the water for everyone but me. as time passes i'm pulled further out to sea, and i know there is no getting to shore. it's just a matter of time before i sink into the depths. i am alone, there is no help for me.

There is help. Keep looking. Here's a life preserver for you: O Grab it, ok? Hang on. It does get better.

I am sending you many hugs, in case you didn't know hugs are like flotation devices.
Sweetie things really will get better, just give it time and keep posting maybe we can help.

it's so endless. something comes along to grab onto a little while, and then it's gone. nothing lasts, nothing really helps. my hopes just sink again. i'm always going to be empty and alone.

Hey Tao;

Just keep padding forward, at some point you will get were you want to be, happy, successful and loved. Keep your chin high and don't let this darn illness keep you down, you have so much to share with others.

Hugs

it's just so hopeless! there is no out for me... there really are just some people who can't be helped, who are totally stuck, and i'm one of them. so i just eek on miserably until a dark mood takes hold again instead of this simply hopeless one. it's all there is to do...

"it's just so hopeless! there is no out for me..."

" it's just a matter of time before i sink into the depths. i am alone, there is no help for me"

I dont know if this helps or not but I just wanted to point out that These are cognitive distortions. These thoughts alone...sinks you deeper into your depression and if you sink deeper into it there WILL be less hope for you. Its a self-fulfilling prophecy.

*hugs*

Be Well

I hope what I said helped.

Oh and you are NOT alone. We at PC are by your side. *hug* *hug* *hug*

you maynot be able to get back to the land where you came from, but you must keep treading water. the tides are taking you somewhere. you cant see it, but an island is just over the horizon, waiting for you. a place where you can finally live in peace.
