potterfreak1 11:00 am - support sitehttp://selfhelp.yuku.comits a support site that i made and i want to help as many people as i can because i have been through shit in my life and i want my personal experiences to help others. your not alone and i hope that i can help you.Overrun by powerful emotionsTrapped at a dead endOnly way out is to conquer the dreaded emotionIt's like a shadow so dark and menacingI avoid it at all times The shadow follows me wherever I goNever relentingBecoming more powerful as its quest progressesThe more I avoid it the stronger it becomes Never letting me forgetNever giving me a moments peaceNo matter how hard I try to repress what I'm feelingIts always thereGrowing stronger as each moment passes Days go byI get better at hiding behind a maskPretending to be normalSoon the days give in to weeksAnd the weeks surrender to monthsSlowly my mask becomes realityAnd I forget about the shadow lurking insideUntil one dayWhen the shadow takes overExplodingLeaving me defenseless to its powerLeft to fend myself in the wake of destructionpowerlessthat is a poem i wrote and posted on my site

girlyouknew 01:31 pm - Something nice, for onceSunTouch Plus Light & Ion Therapy Giveaway from NatureBright on ShesSmart.com! They've done lots of studies on how this particular lamp with the ion therapy really helps SAD (seasonal affective disorder). I see this as the perfect gift to YOURSELF if you're depressed. There is so much pressure during the holidays for things to be perfect. I'm looking into buying one of these for myself, or maybe a less-expensive one since I'm a frugal sort. Anyway, hope some of you decide to enter. I am someone who suffers from depression (major depressive disorder), so I understand...the...how shall I say it... the suckdom of everyday life.Giveaway: ONE WINNER (1) will receive the SunTouch Plus Light & Ion Therapy, which retails for $139.95.

namuhhtrae **02:46 pm - may i introduce myself?**my name's matthew, and I suffer from anxiety, depression and post-traumatic-stress-disorder, and I have ADD. From ages 5 onwards through highschool to the present i have been bullied. At age 6 i was bullied by a teacher, at age 8 i was nearly drowned by a bully of the same age, i've had mostly social bullying, name-calling, teasing and rejection. I contemplated suicide at age 14, had a nearly psychotic episode of paranoia at age 15, and since then have been seeking counselling. Because of the bullying i've had low-self-esteem, what relationships i've had haven't worked out in the long-run, which adds to my depression. I get panick attacks at work based on how busy it gets, and i even wonder if the medication i'm on to stop some of this stuff from happening is actually making things worse. Sorry if i'm doing a whole emo-dump, or seeming self-centered in this post, I just wanted to let people know a bit about me. I try to deal with the stuff, but most of the time i can't handle it. I try to distract myself with trying to think of the positive outcomes of work, but that doesn't usually work. Tomorrow night i've got work and i'm scared about another panick attack happening again. I guess i'm just wondering if anyone has any advice, or techniques i should know about. yours sincerely matt (namuhhtrae)

yellowhair **06:57 pm - Random thoughts from my head....**I am looking for things in all the wrong places...That is why men leave me....Remember that!I am the real life Debbie Downer and I didn't even realize it until now...That is scary....No one understands me.Will you please save me God? Don't leave me here all alone...God, do you think I could ever be a great writer?Do you hear me talking to you?I have tears in my eyes....I want to leave some sort of legacy in my life to help other people...That is whats really important.Without my sanity I have no chance in life....Please don't let me go off the deep end...I hope I haven't lost my sanity already...But if I have will you please give it back???Can God really cure all the pain...?If I get down on my knees, cry and pray will you really help me lord?You don't know how having bad self esteem can tear you up inside...It makes you self destructive.It makes you hurt.I make people choke me....But the thing is I know I deserve it.If only I could be respectable....Wake up bitch!Stop being so fucking lazy or you will regret it....Just DO SOMETHING with your life....!Current Mood: anxiousanxious

britwilder 05:54 pm - LexaproI'm on Lexapro; has anybody here taken it before? This is my fifth day on it, and the main side effects that are bothering me are nausea and the feeling that everything around me is moving. I'm taking it for Anxiety & Depression, and nobody in my family takes it seriously. Thanks =)Current Mood: crushedcrushedCurrent Music: Muse "Supermassive Black Hole"

mentally_aware 06:27 pm - Alpha-StimThis is something that my family and I are looking into for me. From what I have read..it looks to be promising and something I am looking forward to trying. The Alpha-Stim - Microcurrent electirical therapyAlpha-Stim treats anxiety, insomnia and depression with cranial electrotherapy stimulation (CES). CES produces beneficial changes in the brain's electrical activity and can induce pleasant and relaxed feelings.( Treating anxiety, depression, and insomnia with CESCollapse )
