    i too have suffered with depression and anxiety related agrophobia for the best part of 10 yrs
    its difficult but as you say stephen talking about it is the only way to get it out
    have you tried cognitive behavioral therapy i found this very beneficial
    also walking with my walkman in my ears and some good sounds playing
    set my self a goal
    say walk three blocks then back
    it was difficult
    but hey rememvber you have got friends on here
    OTE=Sir Stephan][​IMG]There's clinical depression, resulting from a chemical imbalance and emotional depression, from life and our reactions to it. I've experienced depression all my life. At 55 I've finally been diagnosed with that and ADD. I've tried just about every anti-depressant and nothing's worked so far. The book I suggested in the private response has always helped with the emotional aspect. Music helps too. You quote "Mother Earth" by Tracy Nelson and Mother Earth. That and "Down So Low" also by her are a good way to start. Then maybe on to stuff like "What I Am" by Edie Brickell & The New Bohemians and finishing out with stuff like "Instant Karma" by John Lennon. The best is talking to someone, though. If there's no one you can talk to face-to-face or on the phone, there's always us.
    Stick around.[/QUOTE]

    I think part of it may be the fact I am moving out of my mom's next month on 11th, and never living my own before ma be part of it. It can be a scary world out there, but I have a tiny bit of hope in me that I will be okay. Goddamn! I just want done and over with. I am scared. Lost. I am twist of nerves. Thanks you guys. You helped. I feel loved, and for that I love you! One step at a time, and it will be done, and over with, and I can sigh. Darkness is slowly lifting. Too slow at times.:confused: :eek:

    Moving out, eh. I grew up in a large family (8) and couldn't wait to get out on my own. Moved out at 21. It was a gas. Are you moving into a college dorm or something? Are you moving out by choice, or getting "kicked out of the nest"? Got a job? Why is this move so traumatic?

    Everybody has a right to there opinion.
    You believe it's bullshit
    She doesn't
    Psychiatropic meds can help, but they only mellow your depression or whatever your difficulty is, and leave the rest for you to deal with. They will never ever take away your problem. You must fight the other half. You must cope, and learn from your difficulties. It is hard. It Bullshit, but there no other way. Oh I know what you are thinking. Do an illegal drug that'll fix it! ....but for how long. SHORT TERM! You must fight along side the meds! Do your part of deal! Shit...yeah i a miserable. Fuck yeah I want to die sometimes.....DO YOUR PART NO MATTER WHAT!!!!!!!!!! I cry for some cure, but there is no cure, but get some relief in its place. Depression Sucks!
    You got learn to live.....i repeat....you got learn to live...in my head everyday. Thank You Hippies!
    I LOVE YOU!

    We don't pick our family, but do try to remain on good terms with your Mom. You'll figure it out later. I come from a large family (8) and I don't think I would've chosen any of them as friends if I weren't related to them, except maybe one of my brothers; we're pretty tight. We DO pick a new family, though; our friends. I'm guessing some of them will be helping you move. Be good to them and they'll help you through. I was lucky, in that when I got my first place, I had a girlfriend for support, my upstairs neighbor was cool and so were lots of others in the neighborhood. It was like a little community. It was a row of townhouses and basement apartments on a dead end street. We had a neighborhood dealer who would deliver. Bounce in with his two German Shepherds and a shopping bag of wonderful herb. Of course that was '71, times have changed. But there are still a lot of good people around that will help you through this. Don't be afraid to reach out. Any questions, just ask your online family here. Keep us informed. We care.

    Thanks. It is one of the new anime avatars from HippyLand. I think it is new. It wasn't there, when I first signed on. I thought it might cheer me up. It did a little bit.
