Anyone suffering from mental illness????

I suffer from MDD or as it most commonly known clinical depression, it started when I was 6 and this year I turn 30 so it has been a 24-year uphill battle but I am doing good and I am living my life.

I am suffering from depression too. I never told anyone even my own parents. I'm too afraid to tell anyone especially my mom. She told me once that most depressed people are pathetic so it really hit me deep. I often think I should just vanish in the face of the earth for good. I'm useless.   2 reply

But she just told me that it wasn't true and refused it. I told it several ......   3 reply

Two weeks ago, I felt like having a depression in the last weeks. It wasn't like I felt down or sad, I felt numb, lonely and empty. I think it started going downhill after I started writing my life down. How I remembered my past. I never cried in my life, even when I was bullied, when I was a loner or when my first love broke my heart in the worst ......   1 reply

Feeling alone out there with your mental troubles can be one of the most infuriating and lonely emotions, really. There are more people than we think who have mental issues, but most people are ashamed of it and many also haven't been diagnosed, so they feel they don't have "the right" to claim that they're depressed etc. Oh but to answer your ques......   1 reply

Um, I've never been Clinically diagnosed so no I don't know if I suffer from depression, I mean I have felt suicidal before and actually those thoughts have recently regressed from how much I used to have them, I mean I would plan out a way to kill myself on a daily basis, I just felt like I didn't belong mainly because my family are all happy and ......   reply

Around about three years ago, I received the tormenting mental health issue called PTSD. After that incident I became very depressed. I don't want to be like my father, who has the same issue as I do. The only problem is that he waited for over 20 years, which caused me to live with it. I'm not saying I have it genetically, which some people can mi......   reply
