Some of y'all may know me... some of y'al may remember that I turned into a bit of an asshole after a while.
I was in a dark place for a while.
Do you ever go to bed liking you? Do you ever wake up liking you? In general, do you like you?
I don't. I don't like me in the morning, in the evening, at noontime or suppertime. I just don't generally care for me. I'm pretty proud of the things I can do, I know, objectively, that I'm a heck of a guy... but I don't really like me. I don't really even think that I should keep wasting oxygen.
I deal with this, I struggle with this... and I FIGHT every day with this.
You know someone with depression, whether you know it or not. There is someone that you know and love that is hurting right now.
Help them if you can.
I've been diagnosed with depression and OCD, and I'm on medication and in therapy to help (I'm also in AA, and trying to make that work with my atheism).
I've been mostly absent from PF because I was in a really dark place when I was last frequent here, and I know I made an ass of myself... I will probably continue to be a lurker for a while, but I thought I should say "hi"
Also, I'm mostly OK right now, this is not a cry for help, but a PSA... I'm kinda down, but not in one of my darker moments. I just wanted to spread the word. I have love and support, but not everyone does.
Be that love and support to someone if you can.
