Beat my depression (read all 10 entries…)

downn. Upppppp. Downnnnnnnnnnnnnn.  — 1 year ago

That’s basically how my day went. down up down.

I feel so cold. I tried it again.

The self harm.

Bunch of little marks on the back of my wrist.

Which sucks because now I have to find a sweater during SUMMER.

I’m no expert at cheering people up, and I don’t know too much about the situation, but hey, I’ll give it a shot!

Please hang in there, Katie. <3 I'm 100% sure that there are many, many people (offline and online, like myself!) who care about you very, very much and who are deeply worried about you and wish for your happiness. =(

I know that things can start looking up for you—my sister has been suffering from depression for over three years, and like you, her progress has been going up and down. She’s been getting better at it though, I think in the longterm—she went to a therapist, but she didn’t enjoy it—so my parents decided to just have her talk about things between her and them, or someone else she felt close to. And I think that really helped. <3 That method may or may not be something that'd help you too, but it's worth a try. =)

Just remember that if you want to talk to anyone (again, offline or online), you should never hesitate to ask, because in the end, it may be able to help you. =)

Thank you $]

that really helped.

It’s nice to know that a bunch of people do… :)

Ehh. Counselors are not my thing. I’ve tried it but they always make me feel so stupid and naive. None of the ones I went to (atleast 12) really took me seriously….

Thankz.

Lots of Love,
Katie. <3

No problemo, Katie. =) Glad to know that I helped.

Yeah, counselors aren’t my thing either—I’ve been to a few family counselors, and they never quite helped. I don’t think anyone in my family likes them, either. Haha. =P

Yep, always remember that there are tons of people out there worrying about you and who care about you with all their hearts. =)

Lots of love back,

sweet of you.

Have a beautiful day.

Love,
Katie. <3

I never cut myself…and yeah, that sucks that you have to wear sweaters now. Isn’t that enough to make you not want to do it? <3 depression sucks. Have you talked to anyone about it? I ended up in the hospital b/c I left it go waaaaay too far and I had bascially stopped eating and got sick every time I even THOUGHT about a problem! Therapists are good for ranting and letting things out and having someone on the outside look at your situation…but, other than that, I mean, you can tell your parents or your friends…and believe me, your parents want to know. Mine were horrified that I was in the hospital for a week, and they had had no idea whatsoever what was going on!! I still feel bad about that. They were crying and everything. SO talk to your parents, if you have th courage. if not, try a friend. Cutting’s not the best thing, expecially b/c it gets infected if you don’t take care of it and you’ll have those marks till you’re really old and have to wear coats to job interviews. Good luck, much love and send a comment over if you want to talk! <3
hang in there!

Ahem.

I didn’t say I did cut.

I said I tried and there is a HUGE difference with that.

My parents already know I’m depressed…

ah

I’m glad you only tried. I think, you havea purpose in life that only you can do, and well, gotta stick it out to find out what it is. No worthy, noteable person ever had an easy life. Heck, Mother Teresa had depression…just hang in there, talk to your parents, reach out to people. I think that’s the number one thing that helped me. Knowing that there are other people out there with this problem, of all ages and types, who understand you, and knowing you can help them and they you to get through it all together.

Thank you Christin3

That means so much to me. <3 I hope so...

Katie. <3
