Guest guest Posted August 22, 2005 Report Share Posted August 22, 2005 Not sure why but am feeling depressed today. I had a pretty good weekend but I just don't feel right. I just want to cry. I did not sleep well, maybe that is it. I feel isolated and lonely. Cassy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 22, 2005 Report Share Posted August 22, 2005 Cassy, Sorry you feel so bad today. Maybe a lunch date with a friend would cheer you up? Please tell your doctor how you are feeling. Not sleeping will make you feel awful. I hope you feel better. a On Aug 22, 2005, at 8:04 AM, cnberte wrote: > Not sure why but am feeling depressed today. I had a pretty good > weekend but I just don't feel right. I just want to cry. I did not > sleep well, maybe that is it.

Guest guest Posted August 22, 2005 Report Share Posted August 22, 2005 Hi Cassy, my name is , I live in Missouri. I read you are having some depression right now. I feel for you, sometimes I wonder if this doesn't go along with the daily issues we have to deal with. I dont know about you, but I live alone, and when I call my family ( kids, sisters, brother etc..) it is as if they don't want to hear the " aches and pains " I am having, which is understandable, but still leaves me with no one to talk to. Then I really do feel lonely, and depressed. I have read and beent old you need a good support group, well, I never get out to make friends, so its pretty much me and my dog, and he usually can get me outta one of my moods, but not always. As silly as this may sound, and it may not help you at all, try taking one thing in the house you'd like to see done, clean out closet, sort clothes, anything, then work on that, put music on to help time go by. Then when you are done with that project,, you feel a little better to have accomplished something. I know it sounds silly, but for me it helps. I think it gives us a little sense of control over something, when we do not have control over how our bodies are doing. You'd think I'd have a spotless house right ? , lol wrong ! I am constantly moving things around, but it makes me feel better. Of course if you are hurting so badly you cant do the task, it will only frustrate you more. During those times, if I can without my hands hurting really bad, I will type a letter and send it to someone I know , whom I have not contacted in a long time. They enjoy it so much , and it brightens their day to know you have thought of them. Or I pick up the phone and call someone I have not spoken to in a long time. I " listen " to what is going on in their lives, and it helps me to get outside of myself and my problems. Sometimes I realize my life isn't so bad after all, Hugs and I hope some of this will help, if you like please feel free to email me directly and we can email back and forth, but let me know if youd like to, so I can add you to my address book, otherwise the emails go to junk mail, and I do not read those, there are so many, I just empty the box and go on. Better days ahead,,, in Missouri ____________________________________________________ Start your day with - make it your home page http://www./r/hs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 23, 2005 Report Share Posted August 23, 2005 Hi well, I am still depressed, I am on prozac for that. Just very down the last few days. Cry very easily. A program that I enjoy on HBO ended and I even cried about that! Thanks for all of your support and I sent you an email so you can add me to your buddy list.
