oh sweetie, just try to remember that tomorrow is another day. And it just might be that day when you say, "wow.....I feel better today". Give yourself permission to feel the things you need to. But when your feeling so down, that you can't do it on your own, you can call me. I don't know you, but I do know depression and pain. If you want to give me your email address, I will send you my phone number. I don't care when it is. My email address is
(Email address can only be seen by the question and answer creators) Your never alone dear :)

I have been there and actually attempted to take my life thankfully unsuccessfully. I have learned when I'm at my worse I need to surround myself with those who I know care the most about me even if it's a close friend or my poetry find a way to let out the anger the sadness the pain the hate.

TinaLee, it is a struggle to stay positive, but prayer helps me, even my darkest days, I may cry, but prayer and rest pushes me thru.

I feel the exact same way. I just don't know what to do about my medical care anymore. I am so tired of going to doctor appointments 4-8 times a week. Infusions 6 times a month. Over 20 different medications. Don't know what to cook for dinner for the family. I don't want to go out. I don't have a sex life anymore. I also think the hardest part of it all is I keep a lot of what's going on with me to myself so I don't worry my husband and family more then they already are.

I am so depressed. I am 71years old, been dealing with lupus sle . it's beating me up so much. Fatigue, kidney desfuntion,hair loss, so much pain. Some days I can hardly move around. My youngest son was murdered in 2007,he was 28. To this day I still haven't gotten any closure. I live alone, and only leave my home to go to drs. appointment's. No one visits me or hardly call's me. I keep wandering why am I still living. I just want to go to sleep and never wake up.😖
