Feelings of hopeless, guilt, and shame will cause one to go to great lengths to feel better. We are all battling everyday and fighting with what strength we have to fight our diseases. Don't let anyone fool you we all have a disease and we cannot help if our bodies does'nt produce the chemicals we need to balance it out. I have been told over and over you look great how in the world can you be sick. Nobody in the world knows how devastating this disease is unless you have it. I am new to this site and have found it to be so comforting. Before I felt so alone, but now I know there is hope. I know the drug trails can be terrible and I'm still searching myself. I am 33 years old and have been struggling with clinical depression half of my life. To many times I would give up on drugs and then would find myself worse each time. After hiding for nearly 3 years in my bed and feeling like I did'nt have no need to live anymore I decided to go back to the doctor and seek help. This time I am sticking to my therapy I have to I have lost to much already. I will be praying for you and pray that you have the strength to seek help. You have been through so much you could be of great help to others. I may not no much but I do have an ear and I would be willing to listen if you need a friend. I now what its like to be hurting.
May GOD Bless you and give You strength,
Cindy
