I really need help?

I'm going through a rough time with a bad depression. Is there anyone who can talk?

I had a friend that is a wellness coach. She told me that depression is caused when you're out of the loop of control of your life. I took steps to try and get control over what was making me depressed. I did some things that at least let me feel like I was working towards a goal. It worked pretty well until covid came along nd screwed it all up.

My dog is a great listener, sometimes she even responds back when I'm doped up on anti-depressants and anti-anxiety meds.

Don't know why but she has a German accent sometimes too.

Talk to a therapist, or a friend or family member if you have any of those. If you don't, you can always call the suicide hotline and they'll listen... talk to them before you do anything.

Sad to say I'm a terrible example of what to do, don't do what I do.

I really wouldn’t recommend talking to anyone other than a professional. Check for info on a local clinic at your city hall.

You can talk to people here. I also would recommend go to a professional counselor in person.

Feel free to express your concerns and thoughts here…this is one place you can be yourself…I find it more helpful than going to my counselor.
i have made friends and met my husband here. I still talk to a few gag friends. Some are doing better and some are happy to have someone to talk to. we all need an ear from time to time…but at the end…only one can do that for them selves by setting goals and taking the baby steps to be better with a more positive outlook in life. Hope you are feeling better these days.
