I sit here a wonder...who am I?? I am no longer the fun loving, carefree person I used to be. Now im beaten, and living in pain. I jump at every noise and look over my shoulder repeatedly. I used to love to sit in the country,somewhere quite and peaceful. Now I look around every minute or so wondering if someone is in the bushes. I miss my moments of tranquility. Will I ever be me again? I notice when I look in the mirror that sorrow shoes in my eyes, they used to twinkle. something in me has died and I cannot revive it. I want to be me again..This suks

(((((Thinkinghappy)))))) remember nothing ever remains the same, life is transient and things will change for you and you will see happy days and blue skies again soon. I am just out of a horrible what seemed never ending depression and I feel ok and balanced which for me is a godsend. Dont give up hope, we are all here behind you wishing for your best. Keep posting and try some of the other forums as well where you may get more specific support like the depression forum for instance.

Keep posting and keep the hope

Sounds like PTSD.

No, you won't ever be who you were,
but then, are any of us?

Therapy will help you find a new you that you can live with, and possibly enjoy! It's a long road, but worth it. I mean, what's the alternative? You can begin to heal and be there years down the road of life, or you can not begin to heal and be at the same place you are now years down the road.

Not beaten. Surveying the terrain that must be traveled while making a better life.

Did something traumatic happen to you? If so, are you getting help for it?

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
