MDJunction to me

"MDJ is like a family to me where I can talk to others who understand how I feel. I can as group leader help others and support them and be there
for each other for the good and bad times. MDJ has helped me come to terms with my disability and be able to live my life and be positive. I just hope that I can be there for others like my friends on MDJ have been here for me." (jackie1979)

Losing friends to depression :/ (page 2)

ApRiLGeTsAngry77

I can relate to what others have said. I posted something a couple days ago about mood dependent behavior where I can cancel plans based on my moood. If I get depressed, I will cancel plans.

I am lucky enough to have a very understanding best friend. She puts up with my cancelled plans and still is a very good friend to me.

I know, I know I'm not "crazy", but if I told people thats what they're going to think, isn't it? Thats what I meant. Thats what people always think about mental illness :/ Either that or they think you're attention seeking.

Even if I did tell people...its been like 9 months :/ My depressions are really long. I feel like I don't even know them anymore. Ahhh poo.
