Memories intrude, why do they do that? I just want to live my life in happiness but can't. I have so much to be here for but don't want to be. But for my cats, my son and my grandchildren and the rest of my family and friends I want to hold on but I am slipping deeper into depression.
I hate myself and my life right now but I just can't get away from the memories of abuse and of the life I lived on the streets when I was 16 years old. My past I never talk about but now I can't stop talking and thinking about it all. I'm using food and sleep to find some sort of relief but it's not helping either.... I don't know what I'm asking for? maybe some attention, I don't know? Posted on 04/20/08, 04:04 pm |

No matter how old your kid is they still need their mom. As you walk through these, remember to keep telling yourself that they are in the past and cannot hurt you now.

it would be wonderful if we could just get rid of those memories, i feel like you trying to hang on to something, and work through those bad days of my life. i know they will always be a part of me cuz thats my past, thats what im trying to do bury the past so its not present all the time as i try and move forward. you can do it i know you can hang in there.

When we are in depression, all the negative stuff from the past that caused us pain can come hurling back in our faces...even things we thought were long forgotten and worked through...and the emotions are overwhelming. It's getting so that I can't take a nap because those thoughts and emotions just overwhelm me. It's like an onion whose layers are unpeeling again, slowly but surely. Nothing is ever really gone. We are a product of everything we've ever done. I am just as frustrated as you are. I am a grandmother, too, and can't even enjoy my family because of this darn depression crap...and I can't take antidepressants...very bad reactions. Oh well, I just plod on, studying and looking for other ways...and going to therapy to peel more onions! :) Hang in there...we're gonna make it.
