New to beyond blue and having a rough night

[Paige02]

I just wanted to say hi, I'm new to beyond blue and decided to make my account tonight because I am having having a really rough night as far as my depression and anxiety goes, I just wanted to distract myself for a while. Seeing some of the very kind words people have said to others I am very glad I joined this sight and I just wanted to say that I'm feeling much better knowing people feel the same way as me and that I'm not alone.

Hello you all and welcome to Beyond Blue!

Isn't it wonderful that much good a community does to us? I joined this forum as you both did, when I was feeling at the worst of my illness, and this decision was one of the best I could make. I'm here now and I am so happy with every post of mine.

Long live Beyond Blue!

dear Paige and Leetherese, it's great that the two of you have joined this site, as everyday we have many other people who have also joined because they too suffer from this debilitating illness and need someone to talk to, as well give them support and offer suggestions in their endeavour to find a way for freedom.

It's never easy to find a way for relief but by speaking to those that have experienced this awful illness themselves, it's a good start by talking to them, so we welcome you and hope that you will have trust in us. Geoff.

Hi Paige and Leetherese,

   I hope that you both find comfort, wisdom, knowledge, acceptance and understanding through your connection with this forum. I too am fairly new to this site and have received so much help and kindness from the wonderful community of people involved here.

   Depression is a hard disease to handle at times, some people don't understand what we are going through. It must be hard for others to comprehend how we can find one day and the next we feel like our world is about to end, or at least that we are covered in darkness.

   This site is a place where you can openly express how you are feeling and know that people will be here to help and support you. I find it comforting to know others feel the same way I do, and that through the sharing of stories, we don't have to think we might be the only ones going through a rough time.

   I wish you both all the best for your journey with depression and anxiety for Paige. I hope you can both find something to do today that will brighten your spirits.

   Cheerio for now and a cyber hug to you both, from Dools.

Hi Leetherese

Great to hear back from you! So how are you coping with life? I hope you have looked around at other sites here, there is some great information and sharing happening all of the time.

It is very comforting to know there are people who care and are willing to help out where they can, and to offer some guidance and encouragement. I have certainly felt a lot better within myself since feeling "connected" to the people here at BB.

Please feel free to start your own post any time you need to as well, and continue to write here if you need a boost or just to say goodaye.

Cheers fro now, wishing you a great day, from Dools
