29/3/18 Iโm feeling depressed at the moment, Iโll be ok in the morning and Iโve been feeling positive for over a month, but tonight is like a reminder that my depression is still there and it wonโt disappear instantly
Iโm currently just sat in a chair, all relaxed (not even got the energy to hold my head up atm) Iโm not really feeling suicidal or like self harming, just down and worn out. so it could be worse
Iโve aways struggled with this on my own, I havenโt officially been diagnosed but I know I am definitely depressed. Iโm too scared to get professional help because I donโt want to take anti depressants, and I donโt want it to stop me from achieving things. so Iโm just acknowledging that this is something I have to live with and that I wonโt let it stop me from achieving anything
I promise Iโll be feeling fine in the morning, I just made this collage to show that in no way am I perfect, I still struggle with mental health issues and insecurities. I hope Iโve explained this well, Thank you for reading ๐๐
I can relate to everything you just said on an amazing level. my depression is not one of infinite hopelessness but more of extreme weariness
but i acknowledge it as part of me, alongside my imperfections and insecurities. though it may get in my way I don't let it stop me
Thats good that you don't let it control you. And if you do work up the courage to ask, I'd really recommend antidepressants. I take them for my anxiety (generalized anxiety, social anxiety, OCD), and I still get stressed more than a normal person, but it helps me handle it a lot better. I remember I didn't have my prescription refilled one time and I only had to go a day without my medicine, but I felt so...sad I guess? Kind of depressed. And it was only one day, and wasn't even that severe, but man I forgot how hard it can be without medicine. You're extremely strong and I'm really proud of you for that. So get help if you can, you'll feel the improvement. Though I'm a bit of a hypocrite as even though I take medicine, that's because my mom put me on it from the time in was in probably third grade (7-8 year olds I think), but I'm still too nervous to go to a counselor even though I know it would help. Anyway, I'm sorry for rambling so much. so hope this helps some.
