You matter, you deserve to be happy and you're not truly alone in this darkness. Rays of light and hope can breakthrough and give you something good to hold onto. I hope you keep sharing on here how you're doing.

Hello Lara_C,

There's still lingering shame I have for seeking help and even posting. I'm actively trying to combat this and acknowledge that these are thoughts coming from the deepest darkest depression. Even as you type, it's so very difficult for me to accept care. I hope you are doing okay wherever you are.

I understand @GraveRobber and thank you for your well wishes . Am sending you the same. Keep going. Share on here only what you feel comfortable with, no pressure. We are listening but you set the pace.

I want to acknowledge what you said about it not being easy, but thank you for posting how you’re doing. Adding to the well-wishes, if you’d like them.

Hi @GraveRobber. I don't have much time and am on my phone, but I wanted to say how happy I am you have come back. It seems like you took the brave step to seek help. That takes far more courage than hurting yourself.

I hope you turn things around soon. It sounds like you are already well on that path.

Keep posting, if you wish. You are valued here, as everyone is.

Hello Lara_C,

I hope you can get to never feel bad about posting here, this is the place for it, for yourself and others. We are here and you are in thoughts.

Hello SF, Hello Until Dawn.

This is Grave Robber.

I want to share that I am still here and I am alive. The past month has been quite hellish. I thought to post here and share that I'm still here as so many people still care for my well being. I was able to be stabilized through medical help and medication since my last post. Where I am, I am able to meet with a psychiatrist, nurse and pharmacist. We've put an action plan and I am now stabilizing on my new medication. Prozac isn't perfect but it's there regardless. In terms of my wanting to end my life, it is still there. It gets louder when I think about loneliness, my ugliness, and well-my body. I'm taking it one day at a time and it's hard for me to do that. Having mental illness is so exhausting, that my mind likes to trick me that going away permanently is something that is a "logical solution" to this problem.

I think about my parents... I think about my friends (I do have friends, though I don't talk to them about this anymore, they know I suffer from depression but-they're getting tired of it. I don't blame them), I think about my relatives... I think about the front desk lady at the gym I go to... I think about the people here on this forum.

I'm still here and looking back at the posts people made, I can't deny that people in this cyberspace, care too.

Thanks for caring.

It is so nice to hear you got the help you need
I hope your road ahead won't be so tough. You're welcome.

I was worried you weren't going to come back, but I'm glad you're still here and have stabilized. I hope things will keep getting better from here.
