Hi Anon, I am sorry you are feeling pulled down everyday but it is fantastic to read you are not letting depression win, keep on recognising that it is weak and you are strong, that way you will beat it.
Keep loving you and your soul mate
hugs

People often say that motivation doesn't last. Well, neither does bathing - that's why we recommend it daily....... Zig Ziglar

CHINO2012_ replied to alaska_mommy's response:
Im here, not letting depression get the good of me. Im not going to lie, its a fight, for me... But I deserve better then being put down by my worries and who ever else tries to put me down.

Its nice to know there are people out there who care, like you guys who replied to my discussion. Thank you so much. You also help my day a lot much better.

I'm sorry you're having to fight, that does suck, believe me I know. But I'm glad you are a fighter and that you're not going to just lie there and take it. Here's to victory!

alaska_mommy replied to CHINO2012_'s response:
Doing ok, I'm trying to do some messy therapy (isn't therapy always messy?), and not really enjoying it. Not sure if it's helping or not. I'm trying to figure out my spiritual life and it's a bit confusing...would like to just stop the counseling but I feel kind of obligated to see it through. I guess that's all that's keeping me going. Well, and the hope that it really will help somewhere along the way.
I'm glad you see that you are a fighter, take pride in that! Not everyone has the willpower to fight this thing, so the fact that you do, says a lot for your strength. No advice today...just hanging in there myself!

CHINO2012_ replied to alaska_mommy's response:
Yeah, to me it seems if it feels okay to see it through it might help out in one thing along the way. I hope you dont get confused often. spirituality is there. I am not doing any sort of counseling, this is the first time I have actually told anybody beside my husband about how I feel daily. And it feels good to know there are people out there like you the give me help. I hope it helps A LOT with you along the way.


I remind myself the depression will not make me surrender. Thank you, I WILL TAKE PRIDE ON BEING A FIGHTER.


IM GLAD YOUR FIGHTING ALSO.

alaska_mommy replied to CHINO2012_'s response:
Yeah I think I will keep going, I have 3 more weeks before we reevaluate where I am.
As for the confusion, it's been over the last oh, 6 months or so. Still trying to figure out where I'm going, why I'm here, and who is in charge. But I have hope I'll get it straightened out, the only question is when.
It does help to post here! I feel like I have a second "family" that I can talk to about my problems. It's a very supportive place to be.

Good for you in taking pride in being a fighter! You should!
Take care.

CHINO2012_ replied to alaska_mommy's response:
Does being where you are at make you feel like you are not going anywhere? I think we are here to be comfortable, like, enjoy being happy, fun, feeling good, having good company, feel and have love around you. Beside all the bad things that try to bring us down everyday. And I feel that we are in charge of our own lives, to love yourself, care for yourself, what ever makes you feel good. Besides all the negativity you dont need.

My same question is also When. When? Yeah, here, feels like someone has the same feelings as you and you can talk about it and help eachother through. I love it.

alaska_mommy replied to CHINO2012_'s response:
Thanks for the advice, Chino, yeah I know that there are many things to enjoy and do here on planet earth. I suppose I just wonder if there is a greater "plan" behind everything. Order in the chaos...you know. But we'll see. I'm sure in time I will figure it out.
What does your "when" question pertain to? As far as when you'll get everything figured out? Or something else?

CHINO2012_ replied to alaska_mommy's response:
I hope you find what you will like to know. If there is a greater plan... I don't know... I'd try to enjoy the time here on planet Earth first and afterwards enjoy The Greater Plan.

As for me. My when is about "when am i going to be happy?" I deserve a good life and futre. I will like my life or future to begin. I've always felt sad but awhile ago it has gotten worse. I don't want to feel that way. I'm pushing to know that there is a good life for me. And I want that.
