Can't Do It Anymore.
Posted: 01-07-08 17:57pm

Hey guys.

I just wanted to apologive for not being around much.
Things have been extremely hard for me lately.
I don't really want to talk about it.

& Contrary to popular belief, I am not
drinking too much or turning to substance abuse.

I'm so extremely depressed.
I don't want to eat, I don't want to get up
in the morning, yet I don't want to sleep.
I can't concentrate on anything at all.
I don't want to do anything at all.
I've been holding it together for Gabe,
because I love him so much more than anything.
But even staying strong for him is so hard, now.
I just keep thinking about how I don't want to live, anymore.

My anxiety is through the roof.
I literally have bitten a hole in my lip.
& Keep biting & biting at it.
I'm in a constant state of paranoia.

It's just gotten really out of hand.

But, I'm getting help.
I've been putting off doing this for years.
But I've made an appointment.
Hopefully soon I can feel & act like myself again.
Something I haven't been able to do since
I was probably... about 13.

I just wanted to say I love you guys.
Thanks for always being here for me.

I'm so sorry you're going through this. I know exactly how this feels, I am this way myself if I don't take my medication for depression. See the Dr. and get help, it can be so much better.

Krissy Sad

I'm so glad you're getting help. You've been through a lot, and there's only so much a person can handle on their own. Gabe is lucky to have such a strong mother, but he needs a mother who's OKAY, not one who's falling apart trying to be a rock for him. It's such a great thing that you're turning to professionals.

You know we're here for you. You'll be okay, hon.

Thanks, Laura.
It was really hard for me to type this & hit submit.
I have a real problem with admitting that I truly need help.
But I'm going to get it, finally.
I've been pretending to be okay.
But I'm not.

Happy dont ever forget that ok

i know its hard to actually take the step to get help. but after you start to feel better you will be glad you did. listen to your doctor and try to get as much support as you can from family and friends. we sure do all support you 100% whatever may happen. even though you dont want to do things sometimes you have to. because its the right thing to do
Very
Happy im proud of you

Thank you guys so much, seriously.
All your words have made me feel a lot better.

& Sandy, all I can do for now is do it for Gabe..
Because I really don't feel like I'm worth anything.
That's one reason I've gotta get help.
It'll be disasterous if I continue like this.
I feel like I deserve any horrible thing to happen to me.

I don't really know what to say Krissy. I can only say that I know what it feels like to be down. I am suffering from it myself.

Hopefully things will look up for you soon. Thinking of you hun
