Hi
Glad just speaking about it is helping you. All the best through this difficult time. Have a better day yourself!

I have the same thought about creating forum posts, or even replying in forums for that matter.. So I've been hiding in the shadows for some time, just reading the posts without leaving a reply. But I told myself, hey! It's okay! Don't be afraid! Engage in the community!
Yup, I pep talk myself. It doesn't work all the time-- but hey, you've done it, you've created a post. I didn't have the guts to, so props to you. I know school could be a drag, it wears me out too very quickly (especially how I live pretty far from school and the bus schedule is never on my side), but keep holding on. Cliche, I know. But I'm holding on too.
Thank you so much for the gibs. I won't be entering, but it's very generous of you to give us the chance to win.
I don't know if you dig cat animal gifs, hopefully you do.

Just a observation from a random internet person. You seem to be good at writing. Maybe try your hand at journaling, if you don't have professional help? Take care panda

It's funny how telling people how you feel can make you feel a little better even though it does nothing to address your problems, but anything that helps you combat depression is a good thing.

Yes, but not because of this post. The labor day weekend helped me as I got an extra day to do anything and everything I needed to do. Even the little stuff I was stressing about for weeks. I made sure this opportunity wouldn't have gone to waste. While I'm not dreading at night everyday now, I still have this anxious feeling far in the back of my mind that I don't even want to address.
But for now, yes I'm doing a-okay :)

Sorry to butt in! Sometimes it works. Sometimes I make a personal FB post and feel exactly the way you describe. Other times it helps. When you do it over the internet, it can be easier to feel the 'empty' way because you feel like there's lots of support out there, but you can't touch it. It doesn't ease the loneliness and sadness. If you have someone you can talk to in your life who will support you, that actually helps a lot more.
Also if you're suffering from actual depressive disorder or an anxiety disorder, talking won't fix the underlying issue, it can help relieve your stresses, but won't always work and rarely long term. That's why a lot of people find meds can help them, but it can be tricky to find a good doctor, afford meds and find ones that work for you. Hope you both can get on a good path and feel better!

Mmm, it helped clarify my thoughts a bit, but nothing to remedy it. At one point I thought about closing this thread cause my anxiety from posting this was consuming me for a few, (cause I knew users from the discord would see this, and that terrified me).
And it's different from person to person. For you, it made you feel worse. For me, aside from discord members seeing this, it wasn't making things worse for me really.
However labor day weekend and this post were close to each other, so maybe I'm just mistaking/projecting one for another in the sense one helped me.

Life is filled with ups and downs, people leaving and people coming, all contributing to the experience.
Know it is alright, and normal, to be sad and down from time to time. And to talk about it.
Sociality is the main reason why we are the humans we are today. Therefore the people that care for you will listen, and help you when you need it most.

I wish I could offer more words of support, but being ill myself means I'm in a poor situation to reach out to people who are struggling, I can barely keep myself afloat right now.
Just wanted to let you know you are not alone in the struggle and some people will definitely make you feel like an attention getter for speaking out, but you're not. Those people and the inner voice that tells you that are both wrong. I can't tell you how many people have thanked me for speaking out and bringing awareness to mental health, whenever I've shared my struggled. Things are changing and by speaking out, you're helping change them.
Things have a tendency to spiral, so my recommendation would be to see a doctor if you're not already and try and get on the road to health again. Sending you strength and support, whatever your choices in these matters <3

Hi there. I'm panda. How are you have you been? I hope well. I'm not.
For the past month or two I've been feeling pretty down. Experienced the worst depression bit of my life so far. Cut ties with two of my best friends recently. Dealing with stress and not having much time to really enjoy myself. College kicking me booty. All that jazz. I always (or at least try to) act positively and friendly. I like being positive and friendly. It's a nice feeling. But my moods contradict each other every day. I've wanted to be aloof distant for these past few days, but my daily schedule denies me of that. The thing is, I absolutely hate telling people about how I feel. And not that daily "how are you today?", but overall. I always feel like I'm seeking for attention (even though I know I'm not trying to). It's very difficult for me to tell my family, friends, and acquaintances about how I'm feeling. I'm tentative to even post this in fear of people thinking I'm some sort of loser broadcasting how I'm feeling. As I'm writing this right now, I feel like an attention seeking whore. However, I feel like writing my thoughts here for people I don't know to read is a lot better for me mentally. If people will judge me because of this, I know I will never really interact with them later on. But, yeah... I guess I just needed to write this for myself. Have a good day :)
