I don't know what to do anymore. My partner and our daughter are too hard on my depression. I have an appointment with a therapist on May 14th. It's just so hard to cope with things right now. When things start getting too hard, I just crawl into my shell and stop speaking. I don't know what else to do. I don't have much time to talk right now. Will be back late tonight and thanks for listening. Cinny58

Hi Cinny, I think it's hard for most to understand depression when they haven't lived it. I have poured my heart and soul out to my husband trying to describe what some days are like for me. When I'm depressed, I want to hide safely under my bed covers. I don't care to do much and at times my husband finds it hard to get. I do the best I can but I need to remember not to allow others to beat me down when I'm down already. Maybe that's what you need to remember too. Talk to others who do understand. Rachele
Having the courage to walk step by step each day.

May the road rise up to meet you
May the wind always be on your back.
May the sun lie warm upon your face.
And until we meet again,
May the Lord hold you
In the hollow of His hand.

Im loving memory of my mom, 2007: My hero, The Wind Beneath My Wings
