A Depression Blog

I think it's awesome that you and your brother write it all down in a blog. That's a very positive way to deal with depression.  I know a few people who are bi-polar and are some of the best writers I've ever read!!

i am pessimistic and emo

but i tend to keep my feelings inside and pretend to be nothing,instead just keep laughing and moving on

it is because i would rather to be the one that suffers the depression rather than other people to feel it and depress with me together
that is not good..

i have severe depression before but i manage to get on with it because i tried to focus onto something else but the depression just can't leave me

but now.. i think i need to depress to live my world.. because i have used to it..

My daughter also suffers from Bi Polar depressive episodes.  She has never been able to hold a job for long and her health suffers very badly.  At 31 she doesn't have health insurance of any kind.  We've tried to get her on a disability going on 7 years now but she is always refused.  In addition she is an insulin dependant diabetic.  I try to keep her supplied with insulin and needles but she won't take hand outs from us.  She will be getting her teeth pulled after years of suffering from horrible abcesses and pain.  We insisted this time and will pay the 2700.00 for the proceedure and then for dentures.  Depression of any kind is awful.  The kind that you are blessed with for you're entire life effects everyone in your life.  When she is feeling good she is a delight.  When she isn't, we have to step back and take a deep breath. 

Depression only man makes unhappy. It will create many health problems. So we try to come out from it.
