Hi there. I don't know if I'm depressed or what but I wish I'd get over it. I came looking for a hug. Today has really been a downer for me. I have been sitting at this computer for 4 hours now and keep wanting to cry.
When you get down in the dumps do you start thinking of all of the bad things that have happend over the years? It's like I try to punish myself by thinking of everything bad.
I have a thyroid problem, am over weight, and always have some sort of pain. Over the last 18 months I have had a pain or uncomfortable feeling in my right side. I have had the Drs poke at me , they did bloodwork, an ultrasound, and an MRI and found nothing. But they cannot tell me there is not something going on. I have had problems with depression which started many years ago but was only on meds for a short time about 2 and a half years ago when I first found out about the thyroid problem. After getting meds for that the Dr didn't think I needed the meds for depression. I have to admit I am better than I was several years ago but I still get down.
There is always something bad happening and I slip back into the dumps. Back in July our dog died and I blamed myself. The backyard was always a wonderful place

Let me be the first to send you some ((((((((((((((((hugs)))))))))))))))))))).
Have you ever thought of talking with a therapist? They really do help. I am also on meds, and those are a great help. I just don't think I could do it without meds right now.
Anyway, I just wanted to let you know that I am here for you, okay sweetie??

hi sweetie!
I know how hard it is to try and do anything when you are depressed but the best method is baby steps... Have you considered getting another dog? I know thats hard but it really does help... Animals are wonderful huggers! (ok sloppy ones but still )
