As I slip further and further into the depths of depression...
I am losing my ability and desire to function on a daily basis. I can't accept the fact that my life has deteriorated to this point...I can't even look in the mirror because I am so disgusted with myself.

i'm sorry that u are feeling this way, but i think it;s a good thing that you are still posting :)
are you getting help for anything? taking meds of any kind?
I'm around if you ever need to chat :)
Hey James...
Reach out...is there a way we can support you???? I know it can seem so hard and bleak but please don't break the connection...keep posting. There are people out here who don't know you who care.
i know how dark it is IN there. my only way was to go out. way out
when I was young it was chemical escape, now I am older, its fantasy, and writing, and lots of fresh air.
I have three children - that is why I live today. You are important to us and to many others. please dont slip ant further, take one step forward today, take a walk, go see someone who you can talk to. Winter is almost over, spring is coming soon.
Joyce, Misstee2u and David,
I appreciate the concern...my intentions in posting as I did was not to alarm anyone but rather to document the realities of depression...I am taking the approach that I am an "immersed reporter" reporting the situation as I see it...and if that means me documenting the "ugliness" and/or my demise than so be it.
I did reach a new low last night and hopped in my car and drove 5 hrs to be with a friend because I could no longer take the isolation.
Again, I do appreciate the concern.

i'm so sorry that you're having such a rough patch. i know all too well about that descent into the black hole of depression. i was having suicidal thoughts just last week, and it's on one of my posts.
so i DO understand and please know that YOU ARE NOT ALONE. if it's of any help, keep writing out your emotions, thoughts and feelings.
it's been a great help to me.
take care.
