Firstly what's with all the funny icons? Secondly why bother posting when obviously everyone reads and no one writes. Thirdly, it's perfect for depressives who know there is no point. Fourthly, why does fourthly not sound right? and so on?
I've never tried forums b4 and maybe i can see why, it's so depressing reading about everyone else's depression and how long they've had it and how nothing helps. So there really is no hope? I am on 40mg citalopram which doesn't seem to help but i think that's because i just forgot how bad it was. I find that as soon as a bout is over even i find it hard to believe, which makes it difficult to explain, even i think i am making it all up sometimes. i also have CBT once a week for the last 2 months, this has helped to establish that my depression is a chemical illness and not caused by: bad marriage, stres at work, low self esteem, problems with teenage children, being ugly, stupid, inadequate etc etc they are all symptoms which CBT helps me to eradicate. Still left with the depression then. What is so fantastic about this life or this world that OTHERS think is worth holding on to? Lets have a nice warm pleasant suicide clinic that we can book into that can give a cause of death that our loved ones don't have to feel bad about?
