About Me
I am a wife and mother of a beautiful 10 year old daughter. I want to do a many things with my life, but depression holds me back! Having episodes of depression makes me feel miserable, sad, unworthy, guilty, and gives me so much fatigue. I wish it would go away so that I can go on with my life. Sometimes I feel I can manage it, but most of the time I struggle.
Interests
I love to paint, draw, take photographs of interesting things, listen to music, go camping, biking, go for walks, and spend time with my husband and daughter. I like to do these things when I am not depressed, but even if I am depressed, I try my best to do some of these things.

Support Groups
Close Depression
Type: Post Partum DepressionI believe I started suffering from depression after giving birth to my daughter. I got on medication for only about 1 year and decided to stop because I felt they weren't helping and I was scared of long term side effects. I've suffered from depression for about 10 years now and I am tired of it. I don't have anyone in my family who truly understands what I'm going through. I would love to hear from other people and see how they are coping with depression.
Treatments
- Positive Thinking Working / Worked
- I have to remind myself that I have to live for my daughter who loves me. That helps me a lot.
- Prozac Not Working
- I did not see any improvements in my condition. Maybe I stopped them too soon. I did not like the side effects.
- Support from Friends & Family Not Working
- Does not work. My family doesn't understand because they aren't going through what I am going through. They think it is all in my head. My depression keeps me back from having friends. I feel I am not worthy to them.
- Writing Working / Worked
- After I feel better, I read what I wrote while I was depressed and I feel silly. I throw what I wrote away and start a new beginning.
- Zoloft Not Working
- I did not see any difference in my condition. Maybe I stopped it too soon.
Close Infidelity
After I had my child, I began suffering from post par tum depression. Then my husband began to be unfaithful to me. He then began to change. He did not spent much time with me and my daughter. I felt unloved and having depression made it worse. I felt unloved and vulnerable that I had an affair too and fell in love with the OM. The infidelity on both parts ended about 4 years ago and we are more happier now, but I am struggling to forget my H affair and the OM. I am so confused.
Treatments
- Divorce Not Working
- I asked him for a divorce too many times back then, but he insisted that we work things out because we both love each other. Now I don't think that divorce is the solution.
- Forgiveness Somewhat Helpful
- It is easier to forgive than to forget.
- Leave Not Working
- I told my H that I would leave him, but he told me he would look for me and bring me back. He convinced me to stay. I am glad I did because that would have not solved anything.
Open Anxiety
Along with depression I have anxiety.
Treatments
- Positive Thinking Somewhat Helpful
- I tell myself it will pass.
Open Phobia
I have a strong fear of all animals. When they get close to me, my heart beats faster and sometimes I feel I will have a panic attack.
