Yes I do feel uncomfortable at times talking about my past but then talking about the past helps me to concentrate on the future

Just had a thought have you got a friend who could just go with you for one of the meetings with the councellor to support you? Eventually my parents are coming to find out what we have talked about in one of my meetings

I don't mean to sound rude in any way but if you were going to take a friend anyway couldn't you save some money and just talk to your friend?
If I DID go I don't think I would want anyone to go with me really. It's about time I stopped feeling like I needed to have someone hold my hand constantly. Besides I guess I wouldn't want anyone there to hear, or judge.

yep it can be good but you need to be honest and if you don't feel comfortable say so and find another one

I don't really want to be wasting my, or their, time.

Evening everyone:hello:


Welcome dawnylou

Welcome home flis21

Thank you - I am merely visiting.
I do not suffer from depression and so I am not sure I belong here.
I just have problems with my emotions. However I felt that maybe someone here may understand I guess.

its not always about the past,for me it was about trying to change my thought and habit processes into one of the present moment and beyond

Isn't depression something that is caused by painful pasts, bad things that happened previously etc?
What do you mean thought and habits? Like OCD?


Everyone please excuse my ignorance


A councellor is just not for me.
I had problems in the past that, I feel, cause me huge problems dealing with any emotions, expressing love and generally getting on with my life.

I just want to get on with things - why is it so difficult?

Depression is not always caused by painful pasts.It can happen for lots of reasons and sometimes for no reason at all.

ok,I am sorry I mentioned to take a friend for support,You are right though,you could just chat to your friend instead.

Everyone else I feel like crying now,I only gave what I thought was the right advice to her and now shes gone,Is it my fault shes now gone? Next time I wont give advice unless I can really give it then I wont be so upset.

Huni - I'm not gone - I'm just making the tea! Please don't be upset!!!
I never meant it like that I just meant why spend money if you have a friend you can talk to that's all.
Isn't this a money saving website??

I get really upset very easily too.

Someone just needs to look at me the wrong way and I cry like a baby!
Thats why relationship building is hard for me...
