Post by: DarylR on May 09, 2012, 03:43:06 PM

Thanks.

I do too, there is always someone around for support when I most need it, and its support from people that really know what its like to be depressed which makes a big difference :)

yeh i'm so glad i have found this site where i can talk to like minded people, it's good you feel comfortable here, some days are worse than others for me, like anyone i suppose but the bad days really get me down and it feels almost impossible to pick myself up. it have always had problems with my social life used to be shy when i was a kid and these days I have little patience for most people as it's frustrating that they do not understand my situation
