Major set back for me

Oh and remember, there is a sister site to this one for depression. I think maybe checking out the program there and info there could be helpful. Anyway, keep us posted on how you are doing. -Diva

Well, in my experience there is a way out of even the darkest deepest pit. All you need is time, patience, love and kindness for yourself and effort. I won't lie to you, it wasn't easy for me to get better when I was that depressed. But I fought hard, got the help I needed by any means I could and with enough time and effort and love for yself I got better. And now hey, things are not perfect but then again nobody's life is perfect. But I can assure you it is possible to get out of that kind of deep hole, if I did anybody can, trust me. I am happy now. I have my bad days, even bad weeks sometimes, but I would say I am happy and just hang in there you will be again too. Remember to be good and patient to yourself. Hang in there. -Diva

I hope so Diva. Even today the depression has its grip on me I just can't seem to shake it.All I do is cry and realize that I can't keep on living living like this, in this shape. It takes too much out of me. I just want to get better and start living life again.This right know Sucks its not a life. I don't know how to get over it.This depression just restated this weekend for no reason at all. It just dredges up how alone I really am. No friends, No family close by. Something has to give or I'm going to lose it. "B"

Dear Seamsew, you are most welcome :) Dear B, I have been where you are right now. You are not alone. I know it is hard to believe but as you keep working through the program and getting help and such, things will get better. I was in a major depression, unable to work, all I could do was "manage myself" as best I could and prey I get through my day. But baby step by baby sep, just with perseverance and keeping going and trying I did come out of it and I believe you can too. So remember, this too shall pass. -Diva

I'm having the same problem. I just can't seem to get ahead in any of my tasks.Like right now I'm siting here totally upset and crying because I want my life back. My doctor has me doing mastery and pleasure , I seem unable even to get those done properly. I have only been able to do 2 mastery activities in 2 weeks. I have had it. Instead of moving forward it seems I'm going backwards going back to when the depression started 3 years ago. I can't live like this anymore. I haven't been able to work for 3 years. All I've been doing is dealing with this.I have had it.I wouldn't hurt myself because that doesn't solve anything.I just want this to be over so I can work and have friends , which I don't have any. I just have myself and it totally sucks. What is a person to do to get over depression -Panic and Anxiety disorder and Agoraphobia. Even stop this stupid crying. I know I haven't been posting on this website in a long time because I wasn't making any progress and I didn't want to have to admit it. But as you can tell I need something,because I think slowly I'm going nuts, crying for no good reason. To afraid to go out a door. Some people are going to say get your family iunvolved, they are but they are 400 miles away so when I really need someone there is nobody. So thats why I came on to rant in hopes that I might feel a small iota of relief. But nothing. I am going to sign off now and probaly just go to bed and see what happens in the morning. good night "B"

Hi Seamsew, I totally agree with Lorlee. I have has setbacks like that too. But you are srong and you can come out of it. The program will help you also :) Know that you are not alone and that we are all here to support you :) -Diva

Hi Seamsew, Most of us have had our setbacks to deal with too. It is so frusterating but all we can do is just keep trying. I do alot of self-talk to help me focus on the fact that the anxiety comes from within me. It is not real in the true sense of the word. You can get back on track. Keep working the program. You are stronger than you realize.

Seamsew, Start reviewing and putting the strategies back into use. Keep that anxiety in check before your panic cycle overwhelms you. Let us know if we can assist you in anyway. Danielle ___________________ The PC Support Team

It has been a long time since I have been on this site. I have not had a panic attack in over two years. I was taking Effexor which was working but I had enough of that horrible drug. I was so proud that I finally got off it for four months now. Last night howerever I had my First panic in a long time. It was horrible. I just don't want to start the panic cycle all over again, But anxiety take control of u. I don't know what to do.
