Always depressed... Suicide awaits

[linnyb]

I am glad i am not the only one who felt that post was unhelpful!

That pit of despair is something you can't understand if you haven't been there. However amazing your loved ones are it doesn't stop you wanting to opt out. It is a very long & hard road to recovery. Fighting is exhausting & painful & many areas have insufficient mental health provision. xx

Never ment it in a bad way of saying man up cause your acting a child I ment man up as in you can succeed in beating it and not letting it beat you I've been in the same boat myself and it is hard but once you get a grip of the problem then it's all up hill sorry if my context of meaning was put across wrong

Ok, wording is so important

Hi, I think this is a subject that is very personal to those who have suffered depression so badly & that is why the response has been so strong. For me I have been that deeply in that pit of despair & am about half way up the hill, but still have to fight on a day to day basis & its hard to deal with type 1 along side those feelings. I agree you have to fight, but it is so difficult & some days are better than others, encouragement, love & support all helps. I do appreciate you explaining what you really meant. Thank you x

Diabetese will never make you feel good cause you'll control it so well them boom you get a bad day that ruins you and your feelings cause you thought you did really well. My point was don't let it beat you even on your off days I know it's easy said then done but if you can manage to stay strong then you will over come it even with the bad days.

I agree but it is harder when it isn't just the diabetes you are fighting. Depression is often a seperate beast that isn't just related to the diabetes, when that is the case yes you have to fight, but it is much harder. However I do agree that poor diabetic control won't help mental health issues.

I will always say and have always said if you feel it, it matters,regardless. I could say lots of personal things to add but I won't. I can only say Meg that many sit at the bottom of a well, dark, cold and feels lonely not knowing how to get out. A key to remember is no matter how dark it gets light can appear and it's how you spend your time in the darkness that is super important. I have see you have spent some dark time saying how you feel on here, which is awesome and I can't say when the light might come or how much but keep looking after yourself and keep your support close! It all helps

Heart palpitations seem better. I'm on Sertraline,

Hi @Meghalton

I'm not diabetic my little girl is but I am on sertraline as after my daughter was diagnosed and other issues in my life I went down in a spiral but the medication really helped, I hope the doctors get you the help you need and you feel better X

How are you?

We are all concerned. We hope that you will come back and "talk" to us.

Have you been managing to keep busy doing something each day?

Keep with us... We all wish you well and would love to hear from you.

Depression is awful. You are not alone.
