... 't seem to get out of this black sorry to share my agony (again) but I really need to talk. :cry:
There's a thread called Depression - sorry don't know how to link. Total IT-phobe.
There are a few comments from people who may be feel, or have felt, the same.
It's fairly recent thread but the rate this place goes, it's probably on page 15 by now! I'll go and have a look for it - be right back!
Here's a story I wrote about depression: some people found it interesting reading.

That's it anyway. How do you rename them? You know like people have "click here to see my ad" ??? PM me the answer - I don't want to hi-jack this thread.
BIG hugs to you, lazee. :therethere: Sorry we haven't had chance to chat yet. Will be back online later tonight if you're about?
Wotcher, Lazy. I 'speck you are still feeling down. You know, it ain't been that long, after all.
If you seriously think you're falling into the pit of depression and can't climb out - go see your GP. There's enough of us on here who have been thru/are going thru mental illness and it is no social biggie.
If the thought of that makes you mad at me, then I apologise. I don't know anything about you, after all. Just would not want anyone to 'put it off' for as long as I did before starting to get things sorted.
*hugs* as ever,

for what it`s worth lazy, try keep a diary and work on one problem at a time, reading back you can see improvements, you might be in a hole but you won`t be alone, but only you can climb out, everyone has a different route, you just got to find yours
The biggest problem about depression is that one of the symptons is lacking the energy and will to pull yourself out.
I'm on seroxat and it has helped. It also didn't have toooo many sexual side-effects.
thanks people.I've just read through the"Depression" thread as recommended and it has confirmed what I was your kind responses have kind of told me that i am suffering from the big 's no stranger to me but when i finally came out of it previously I promised myself nobody would get me into that black pit again and yet.....
I gave up my whole lifestyle,job,friends,locale etc,when i fell in love with this woman,now I am stranded in a town I don't really know or like,just marooned and alone with memories that hurt so much.
Your responses mean so much.

how dissapointing when i read this i thought it was about being sucked off :scared:
How are you doing today, chicken?
Just take each day as it comes. You have lots of potential new friends on here that will do thier best to pull you back up whenever you feel you're slipping again.
Big hugs xxx
Part of the way out is to say what you really mean.
I know it is practice used in many therapies, but often they help.
Write a letter to your ex. It NEVER gets posted, or she see's it, but it is everything you want to say, the whole truth and no holds barred. When you have done it, put it away for a few days and read it, and see if you have said it all. When you read it a few times, you will have seen to have said what you need, and you then burn it somewhere quiet, and as it smolders to ash, you close the book on the episode in your life and tomorrrow begin another day. Relationships have to be dealt with like the death of a dear friend. Once they have truely gone, we can but reminisce on the past. If you do think ONLY of the goodtimes, because the bad times have gone...the good stay with you forever and make you smile. I know from experience in a life taken, it hurts to think of the bad, so shut it out and you WILL think of the good, but also the future..
Hope it helps....

Give yourself 10 days to wallow and I mean really wallow shout scream cry till you can't any more and then start trying to look at the future, it's the only way I got though cancer and the depression that comes with it.
