Having a real hard time lately

So lately everything has been alright.
It felt like everything was falling into place but the past 2 weeks have been tough. I've had issues with my depression back. It comes and it goes but sometimes I just don't know how much more I can hold on to the positive things when I'm finding more negatives.
the worst thing about it is I can't talk to anyone about it because the people I have in my life won't understand as they are too involved in everything..

Hi purplerose95 - I'm so sorry to read how tough it is for you at the moment. Yes it can feel like all the positives in the world won't break down the negative.
I hope you find some support here xx

Hi PurpleRose95,
Welcome to the forums! Hope you enjoy it here.
It sounds like you've been having more low's than highs lately; sorry to hear. Do you want to tell us what's going on in your life?
I'm not sure what you mean but I know it can be really hard to reach out to people. What about someone like a counsellor? That way they'll definitely have time for you!
Feel free to post more or let us know how we can help.

Hi romantic_thi3f ,
Moved out for the first times.
Relationships are tough to juggle atm too with my mood swings.
Mentally I haven't been good but every day I make it through.
Very lucky to have a support network around me.
I Just find it hard when things that happen I get the blame when it wasn't necessarily all my fault so I'm made to
feel like I'm the only bad person in every aspect of my life.

Hi PurpleRose95,
Thanks for your post.
It definately sounds like there are a few negative things going on for you like your relationships and mood swings. Thanks for opening up a bit to us about how things are.
I'm really glad that you have a bit of a support network around you too; I think that's so important.
Can you tell me more about feeling like you're the only bad person in every aspect of your life? I'm not sure what you mean by that but I can imagine it would be impacting on your mood a lot.

I jut feel like sometimes my needs and feelings are taken for granted and the things that I want
don't & will never matter to anyone but myself.

Hi PurpleRose95,
Thanks for your post.
Wow I'm sorry that's happening to you and it's an awful feeling. Is this because of the people around you? Do you know what's contributing to making you feel this way?
Just so you know, your needs and feelings do matter. They matter here on the forums, but they should also matter in your relationships too.

Hello PurpleRose,
It can be really difficult when you feel unimportant to anybody. It is hard to get rid of that feeling,and can overwhelm the cases where you are taken seriously, such as here on the forums.
Like romantic_thief said, your feelings totally matter to us. We want to help you find what you want.
You mentioned you feel very lucky to have a support network. Would you like to tell us more about them? It sounds like they also care about you and that you are important to them.

Hi Purple Rose,
It is important to remember, with depression, it will come and go.
Even people who do not have depression will have times, when they feel down and times they feel up.
No one is happy all the time. Life is like a wave. Some weeks are good. Some are not good. THis is true for everyone.
I hope this helps.
Kind Regards
