Hi

Hi! Wow, I just joined today, and I'm 22 as well! I've had depression for a long, long time. I'm just sick of how it hasn't gone away. I've been reading more and more about it and now I realize I have to do something myself in order to get better. This website seems like a good start. I'm a little shy, but I do hope to make new friends on here and hope I can help others with their problems as well. I'm not sure what else to say for now. To Inner Hope, I really want a baby, but I know I'm not ready for it yet. My sister is actually pregnant (and she's 23). She's having her first baby next month..it's my first nephew! I can't wait to be an aunt. I suppose it's the next best thing to being a mother. I understand you being scared and anxious and excited. Babies are a lot of responsibilities. Good luck! :-)

Hi Inner Hope, Welcome to the site! Thanks for sharing your introduction here with us. Members here truly understand what it is like to experience depression. Please feel free to roam the site at your own pace. The Depression Center offers personalized, interactive tools that have helped thousands of people challenge and overcome their depression. The core of the Depression Center is our Depression Program which is an interactive, 16-session cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)course. When using cognitive behavioral therapy, each person has unique goals in their treatment. Whatever your motivation, cognitive behavioral therapy is a very effective treatment for depression. You can use the tools whether or not you are taking medication, and whether or not you are currently seeing a therapist or mental health professional.

I just wanted to say hi to everyone. You can call me Inner Hope, as I have had an inner hope to keep me going this far, even when I haven't realized it. I'm 22 years old and have a lot of problems. I feel like I could list a book of them sometimes. I will share that I am 26 weeks pregnant with my first child and filled with different emotions regarding the pregnancy such as being overjoyed, scared, excited, anxious... I have always wanted to be a Mom, but never thought it would be under the circumstances I'm in now. I hope to get well and feel better not only for myself, but for my baby. Thanks for reading my post.
