I got diagnosed last Friday, I'm on primer meds right now and this is on. fucking. point. Even the diagnosis was like being given a stick.
I know it'll be weeks or months before the medication takes proper effect but knowing what I'm feeling might not be permanent is amazing.

You'll continue to feel amazing! You'll know others are there to help and support you through this. Congrats and welcome back!

I'm still battling my depression I've called myself pathetic or worse. Yet still here cause there has to be a reason and I'm still looking.
It means you care. Baby steps. You'll find beauty in the tiniest of moments. Keep battling because it gets better-- I've been there.

Have you tried dogs? Dogs have made my life worth living. I'm still depressed but at least there are dogs.
I do I have three they help a lot.

Thank you OP. This is beautiful. I struggled with stuff like this not too long ago. Trust me when I say this is incredibly powerful.
TheRelevancyOfMyNameIsRelativelyIrrelevant
shrug, I have the gear, I have the plan, just waiting for my parents to die of old age so my final act doesn't hurt anyone, life sucks.
Depression is a liar. You can beat this, you have the strength in you. I'll break my heart if I think of this post later and you're gone.
for some of us there is no hope. The only time i'm at peace is when i'm asleep, and I for one am tired of waking up.
There is always hope. I've been there. Almost cheated out of life at 18. My strength comes from helping others. It saved me.
after 2 decades, dozens of therapists and therapies, and god only knows how many different meds, there's really only one option left.
You may think its a terrible thing, but really, all I do is take up space and waste peoples time, i'm just waiting for the suffering to end.

Boggle saved my fucking life
What's boggle? Can you share some more info?
Boggle is the owl in this poster. Their website is here: http://boggletheowl.tumblr.com/ Back when I was in the middle of an utter breakdown
Boggle's posts helped me ground myself and keep going. Now I'm past the needs for my meds, back in work, and on the mend :)
Thanks. Congrats.

Congratulations! Being a skeleton definitely has its perks.

I am still hoping the "life is amazing" or even "it's okay," to form for me. It's been a while since my suicide attempt, but here I am.
You will get there. It took me several years
lyricallove
It's astounding how utterly hopeless you feel in that moment. I have never felt so low as I did the night I tried to overdose. Well, I 1/2
guess I did overdose, but I was taken to the hospital and drank charcoal.
UpvotingCats
I don't like that phrase because it's so easily confused with attention seeking.
ThisIsTheHardestPartOfAnRPG
And is often used synonymously.
f4ble
Attention seekers are often a step away from being suicidal. Think of it this way: We have a chance to help them before it goes nuclear
MrJitterfingers
but we shouldn't turn a cold shoulder to attention seeking either, everyone needs some love, some more than others.
notadisneyprincess
My brother was just 302'd last night. Depression lies. Seek help if life is no longer fun. You are valuable.

302'd?
Involuntary psych hold. If you're a danger to yourself.
Yamaraja666
I need this almost ever day... Maybe a few times a day... What's it like to have family and people who care if you live or die?
I do, because I'm sure I enjoyed some of your posts/comments before, if you disappear I lose that. Nice bike.
I care. If you ever need to get anything off your chest message me. Completely unbiased. Stay strong. Better days are ahead.
Megarith
I asked myself the question "How many people would actually cry if i died?" and my count was something between 0 - 3, and even then I was1/?
doubtful of those three. So I texted one of them, just casually. Somehow she must've known stuff was up because she kept asking me stuff
about how I felt, how my day way,... Eventually I told her how I felt and she really lifted my spirits up. Went to sleep with a smile
knowing that she genuinely, really cared for me. And I think everyone has at least one person like that. Somewhere, even if you
might have forgotten about them. So there's that. 5/5
