Depression Support Thread

slowlyfading

I hope no one feels ignored by me and if you are, then please explain to me why. Sometimes I don't reply to every post its because I don't know how I can answer some of them.

I'm off to bed before this upsets me. Night x

If everyone is feeling ignored on here what's the point in people replying *sigh*

Glad its not just me! I always feel bad, and I'll often sit debating with myself wether I should post a useless reply or just hide and hope no one notices!

I also feel very scared by some people and I'm not sure who is/isn't my friend, so I do tend to ignore some people. I don't have the guts to ask if people are still angry at me, so I just close my eyes and hope that no one who doesn't like me notices that I'm here.

Well I don't hate you, I consider you one of my friends on here. Everyone on this thread is lovely I think.

How are you today?

Sorry. Was just sharing how I feel. I know I'm sensitive and over-emotional, but sometimes it helps to just share about it. Hope I haven't annoyed you.

RBK-just the professional pics of OHs pass out parade and then everything I've taken since Christmas with my new camera. Lots of the puppy, they make me smile. I love photos

Are you ok at the moment?

I'm dosed up to the eyeballs on sleeping pills, diazepam and co-codamol, and anxiety is still through the roof!

Argh, we need to stop talking about ignoring people... The nature of depression makes us more suseptible (sp?) to anxiety and paranoid thoughts, so people will misunderstand each other.

I think its fair to say that everyone is very nice here and no one purposely ignores anyone else, just circumstances mean we can't always reply to each other.

And breathe...

WELL DONE TO TIFF'S DS !!!

:T:T:T

and...CONGRATULATIONS to you TIFF on winning the George Eliot Fellowship trophy :T what a talented family you are.

Pink Princess What a lovely post it's very much appreciated.

dawnylou (((HUGS))) Are you still off work atm? If so, is it helping? Have you spoken with your manager about everything that is going on? Basically are they aware of how difficult you are finding work atm? Can they allow you any kind of flexibility while you try to get well? The environment you're in seems very stressful and demanding, I'm not surprised it's getting to you.

I think you really need to speak with someone about your options. What does your OH think? Have you got anyone else that you can talk to?

You aren't whining hun (((HUGS)))

Was it Mirtazapine that you were prescribed? Your Doctor gave you a prescription because he/she feels that it will help you, surely it's worth trying it to see? Did you talk through your worries about taking the medication with the Doctor?

LM (((HUGS))) for you. Good poem hun that really does explain metal illness.

slowlyfading I'm sure you will be fine *fingers crossed* for you. Believe in yourself. (((HUGS)))

Bless us, I think feeling ignored and undervalued is just part and parcel of depression. The only reason for someone to be "ignored" is because this thread gets new posts really quickly and it's easy to miss some things that are said, I'm sure the ignoring isn't what's really happening, we are just over sensitive at times

(I think meyore is a quicker typist than me, she said it all!)
