Welcome. The forums are often fairly quiet at this time of day/night but I think there is a thread somewhere for people who are up late in the social spaces forum just can’t remember what it is called. Anyway I hope you find the forums helpful and I am sorry you aren’t feeling the best.

Hello im an insomniac, also get pretty depressed sometimes, this is my first post ever, so please forgive me if I say the wrong things. Sometimes when I'm feeling down what helps me is to imagine if the person you love most or even a pet that you love was feeling how you are now and then tell yourself what you would tell them, hope that helps a little for you

Re: Depression

Hi again, you also mentioned feeling lonely so maybe a little of my story could help you? In my life time i had been treated like i was "less than" for so long by so many ( Im very socially awkward) but one day when I found myself being bullied again, trying to ignore it, I suddenly had this loud thought in my mind " im a person too", It took me a moment to hear the truth in that, that little phrase made me realise I was just as precious and worth no less than anyone else, they were not better than me, I had as much right as anyone to be respected and treated like a human, just the same as them and I believe you're just as precious as anyone, you're a person too
