Hi. This is my first time here. Looks like an interesting and supportive place. I have major depressive disorder and been in lots of hospitals over the last 20 years. Felt quite good the last week and a half or so, but I don't trust it. Last time I felt good for 2 months, then suddenly ended up in a psych ward. Go figure. I hate depression. It has affected every single aspect of my life. God, how I wish it would leave me alone!

Thanks for letting me share.

That must be tough Laura. There's a depression forum on the site for your depression related posts. Some people find it helpful.

I hope you meet lots of friends here.

Welcome, Laura, to psych central. I hope we will be able to help you on your path of healing new here and depressed

Yes, depression is tough isn't it? As we progress in therapy we learn WHY we tend to lapse farther into the darkness at times. Try not to fear the future (as in, darkness to come) but live in "today" if you can. My T says that THAT is the time we are real, that is our real life, and when we do succumb to the darker times, that's the depression - not "us."

Come back and post often! TC
