Sad most of the time

Sad most of the time

Hey all,

Just trying to wrap my head around it all. Am very sad most of the time. I feel like crying. Trying just to stay above water and not drown. Had a few days off work over the past 6 months when it all gets too much. So i got told i have major depression but i am not sure if i am just being a brat or it is an actually illness. It is so up and down all the time. And i hate myself most of the time like this is what i deserve for not caring about other before this happened and wanting too much in life when i had plenty. And about to go on anti depressants so was freaking out about that too like side effects and stuff l. I do see a psychologist but cant really talk as in my mind its so dark so she reacons the anti depressants will clear the fog. We will see

Hello @Cookie42

Sorry to hear you are feeling quite sad and everything feels like to much at the moment, that is not a nice place to be or way to feel, it is good that you are reaching out in any way you can and doing your best, that is not easy at all. We all try our best to cope so be kind to yourself, you are not a brat. Cry if you need and let it out, sometimes that can help release the feelings.

I hope the medication helps to shift something even if it is just for now, you don't have to be on them forever. When will you start that process?
