Morning...
I feel so incredibly numb right now. I have been emailing The Samaritans for an outlet and I thought this would be another good place for me to let go. I have had it with life. It doesnt fill me with joy as it did. I know life has its responsibilities but the fun is gone for me. I thought if I joined a gym it would relieve some of the pain... it hasnt but I still go. I have some glimmer of hope... That is all I have right now. DH doesnt really help too much with working all day long and I barely see him except when I leave for work. This is not what I expected marriage to be like. I am so depressed that I just want to cry. I have no desire to work, talk, anything.... I just want my dark room to be left alone.

Hi Grizgirl and welcome to the board (or, welcome back if you've posted before!) I'm sorry that you are hurting right now but I'm glad that you are reaching out. The Samaritans is a great resource also!
I think you "hit the nail on the head" towards the end of your post when you mentioned the word "depression." Of course, we aren't able to diagnose here but it sure does sound like that may be what's going on. Have you ever spoken to your family doctor about your feelings? What about a therapist--have you ever or are you seeing someone? Do you take any anti-depressant medication? Many people have found at least some relief with a combination of therapy and medication (depending on the person and symptoms of course!). For me, either one of those was helpful, but together the improvement was more significant and ultimately I got to a place where I was feeling pretty good about life again. I know YOU can get there too!
Hi Lori and thank you for responding...
I did see a therapist for a year and it did help.
Hey Darla,
I will do that when I get home tonight from the gym.
Hey Darla,
As promised, I talked with dh last night.
Hey Darla,
Thanks Lori!
Yup, it surely will take time and it's good that you are realizing you ARE worth it! Everyone has a "dark side," Darla...
Hi, Darla! How's it going? You & Lori have developed such a good dialogue that I feel like an intruder;) We do care about you & will be glad to support you through this difficult time. GL & GBU! (((hugs))) jan
