When the depression team asks a question and I answer it, I keep getting notifications every time someone else answers it. I like reading other answers, but it gets monontamous after a few days to a week or longer. I'm afraid to answer more questions from the depression team.
@A MyDepressionTeam Member, I have found the advise to un follow to work
remove the invisible chains around you before it gets too heavy
Arrange to see a therapist before it gets the best of you & makes you lose your
self-control.

I feel like I'm suffocating in my feelings.
Outside there I have to wear this mask that makes me appear happier but alone I take off the mask.
Sometimes I just snap at people thats why I prefer to be alone.They don't know about this mental illness I have so I'd rather carry this burden alone.😢
