  • I feel like that right now, i'm not sure what im living for really...its called depression i suppose.
  • Yes !! In fact, I think we've all felt that way "Quite Helpless, Powerless and Alone" at times. Fortunately , it does usually get better with time.
  • Constantly my Dear, and the feeling has been snowballing out-of-control lately. But YOU my Dear are very young and should be able to find plenty to look forward to!
  • yes. and the most frustrating part is when friends and family just don't understand what you're going through. they seem to think it's something you can just turn off.
  • Yes, I have. -In the Master's service. Thank you and God bless you!
  • Yeah, it happens. I'm happy to know that I can deal with it on my own though. Everytime this happens, it turns out there is something I can do about it, and most of the time that something is nothing.
  • yes I have. But my faith makes me stand up all the time believing firmly that everything that happens always has its way out.
  • I feel that way as we speak. i must move in with my sons family due to health and money; so i have to get rid of everything that won't fit in one room. so dear old mister depression has come for a visit and isn't showing any sign of leaving. i try to make by telling myself all the time::i can do this, i will do this. as they say this to shall pass?!!!!
  • Yes, I felt this a few months ago. Its been a year since my wife and I have been seperated, I had a car accident last year and almost claim bankrupcy because I have so many bills to pay and also I might be getting deported if I lose my case because it was my fault and im only a US resident. Im 23 and just starting college. I work so much and feel like im never going to be able to be succesfull. My wife made me feel like the worst person in the world and just now im starting to go out. Last year was the worst year of my life and also AB helped me to take one step at a time.
  • Yes I have & thank god I bounced back. You will too hon. Just keep looking forward & leave the past behind you where it belongs. (((HUGS))) to everyone that feels that way, just hang in there hope is still alive with you.
  • Yes. Ive been dealing with debt, depression, school, work, car accident and the hardest part of my life Divorce. At age 23 its been so hard for me. What has helped me overcome all of that is GOD.. Ive been chating on and off with a person from Germany and she has change my whole life. Faith and beliving that there is light at the end of this dark tunnel..
  • Yes, I have for nine months now. I lost the love of my life and nothings gone right sense.
  • Yep. I think everyone does. I am at that point right now. My boyfriend left me because he's not over his ex, I have had a recent death in the family, my grandpa is currently dying, I can't go to work because I'll see or think about my ex, I don't have the money to pay for school... so many things seem to be going wrong and just getting worse. The best thing you can do sometimes is to think about it, let out a good cry, and then move on. Think about the positive things you have going for you. There is ALWAYS someone going through something much worse than you are, and almost everyone finds a way to make it through. It's hard, but you can only rebuild it one step at a time.
  • Yes...Every so often, I do feel that way. But it always passes and I always remember that I've accomplished more than I'd ever hoped. And that I have years and years of failing and accomplishing alike ahead of me. :) "Success is the ability to go from failure to failure without losing your enthusiasm."
  • Oh, sure... But it's very fleeting. My father instilled PMA (Positive Mental Attitude) in me. And, from experience, I know that those feelings will NOT last long in me. There's always tomorrow, even IF "there's no future".
  • Of course, we all have. I'm a counselor. Is there a reason you feel hopeless or do you think you need to talk to someone to see if you need medication? Please, please, if you feel suicidal, talk to a close friend, a parent, your local suicide hotline...suicide is a long term solution to a short term problem.
  • I prefer to live in denial. It keeps the demons at bay.
  • What about when you look at the world and realize no matter what path you take, no matter how hard to try, not only will you fail, but if you succeed, you still won't be happy? I often feel like this world is beyond ever saving itself, 99% of the people that inhabit it are complete idiots that just follow the herd. No one realizes what's going on with our government, no one realizes that we're luring ourselves into extinction. My answer is, there is no hope. You can find something to survive for and live day by day hoping you find something to entertain yourself enough to think you have a purpose beyond consumption, but there is, officially, no point.
  • I have. We all have. And lo and behold a new day dawned. It will for you too.
  • I was gonna answer this question, but, well, f*ck it! ;-)
  • Yes, when I've been clinically depressed, suicidal, and was a battered woman.
  • Yes, sometimes when i have the blues!
  • yes, but I've also felt the complete opposite as well.
  • Of course! I think everyone has felt a degree of despair in their lives. I have found that usually people don't understand, they can't see why you feel the way you feel, and for me it usually comes out of nowhere, it's just a train wreck of emotions all at once. Talking sometimes helps me, or just letting go and crying is good too. I always feel better after a great cry! hehe
  • Yep, just this past week actually. Still not quite sure what's going to happen next...
  • Yes, I do now.
  • Yes Indeed. I feel like fish in a pond that is slowly evaporating away and getting smaller and smaller by the day. I'm still the same but the world that I used to know if falling away rom me.
  • Right about now, yes.
