Hi Lisa . So glad to hear from you. Also so very proud of you. I'm sure that your mood will improve just give yourself a little time. Take care have been thinking of you. Love and big hug back to you too. Piglit WereAlways here if you need to talk

Thankyou! It really helps to know that you and Roxie43 are always here. Have a great day!

We all have good and then challenging days. What's important is that we are alive and can continue working on ourselves.
The most important thing to remember is never to give up HOPE ....
God bless

Hi Lisa. I am new on this page & it is so interestng! I have delt with major depression & anxiety since I was 8 yrs. old & I'm 64 yrs. old at this time. By the way, my name is Rebecca & I spent 30 years + of my life being a nurse. Helping others with their "health" problems whether they be physical/mental/emotional. Now if I could only get my own head in line. Just hearing how much help you & Piglet have learned to lean on you inner strength & your faith has given me real hope. I'm on sooooo many meds that not only am i broke all the time due to meds but I go thru every morning feeling like I have a hangover. I had a terrific counsellor/friend that I talked to 2Xmonth but being my age she is retiring in a month & I'm a little stressed over this. Have to remember----rely on myself & my faith, which is so important to me. Thanks so much for listening. I appreciate it!!!

Hello rebecca! It is so nice to meet you! I too have delt with depression since I was a child, and I am on so many meds, that the girls in the pharmacy know me by sight. They even have my birthdate memorized. I have found that age means little to depression. I have always been friendless and emotionally alone except for my wonderful husband. Unfortunately, he works two and sometimes three jobs to provide for our family and four children. He is always so tired that usually I just sit quietly and let him doze without bothering him. I can't work now, and my "Get the job done" attitude makes my couch sitting frustrating. I don't mean to complain on and on, but I just wanted you to know I really do understand. I met my new friends on this site at a time when I didn't know if I would get through another day. They have helped me sooo much by being there so often with advice and support. I am here for you anytime you need me, this I promise you. I pray every night for strength for me and my friends here. I will pray for you tonight. Cares and prayers to you- Lisa4

Hi! I hope you are doing well. Tomorrow is ECT day, and no matter how many times I go through it, it's like the first time. Silly me. I'm loving the weather here, almost like summer! I sit out on the deck with a glass of iced tea to get that valuable sunlight. Care and hugs to you and I hope youe are well. your friendship means so much to me- Lisa4

Hi there! I just wanted to let you know that tomorrow is ECT day again, so I might be out of comission for a couple days while I deal with the headaches. I wanted you to know I'll be thinking of you and Roxie43 each day. You guys mean so much to me! I hope you're doing okay, and I hope to talk again soon. Cares and Prayers to you- Lisa4

So happy to hear from you. The headaches were the worst part for me. Have they prescribed Soma? It helps as does migraine meds.
Let us know how your mood is next time you check in.
Best of luck Lisa!!!!!
