Thank you for your insight and information, Michelle Rush...ESP. when you write "unless they want me to get worse"; THAT is what many people I know need to be told--and IF they "get it," great...if not, TOUGH BEANS! Take care.

I don't tell anybody anything.... Not really a good idea ..but just can't. This is why its good to write it here. I 'm a coward your all so brave to talk about even if you don't get the right response..

I have totally given up on my family, who think I am attention seeking. I was getting really spiteful remarks. I also have osteoporosis arthritis and Parkinson's disease. Which doesn't help depression. My lifeline is that currently, I can drive. The Samaritan's have helped too, when I just wanted to let go.

People who have never experienced depression may dismiss your feelings, however don't let their judgements bother you. You are a unique person and no one else can tell you how to feel. When I am in a dark place I cry lots and don't want to leave the house. Luckily I am a caregiver which helps me take my mind off my own miserys and try to make another more comfortable.Trying to get out and walk abit helps, I started crocheting again which helps me relaxe. Good luck Janie and trust your insticts
