I'm feeling really, really, depressed recently and like a big failure, mostly. I am not going to classes because I'm sleeping through them because of the drugs that are supposed to be helping me. I hate my job so much that the second I wake up on a day where I have to work I get bad panic and depression, but I haven't taken much initiative in getting a new job. I am missing doing assignments for classes, because I'm misplacing them or forgetting about them. I feel lik ea failure because i havent' been able to beat this dp. Sigh. I'ts just a really bad day, today, I guess. I got my pants stuck in the door and i screamed out in ridiculous frustration/rage. Oh well, onward I go...

Keep fighting kid cause we're all in the same boat. I too have minor depression and I've been on an upswing lately (not to brag of course). Things have to pick up eventually. It's impossible to feel down forever. Give the meds you're taking some time to begin working and see what happens. I'm not sure if you just started taking your meds or if you've been on them for a long time. I'm on Zoloft myself and it seems to be helping out with my many disorders. As for the pants in the door thing, you gotta be able to look back on that and just laugh. For me, everything has humor in it. One just has to look for it. Keep on fighting PeaceBoy. We'll be ok.

I've been going through a strange episode of swings between normalcy and minor depression. One moment I'll feel relatively ok and the next I'll start feeling an almost sick queasy feeling followed by sadness, hopelessness. I usually simply try to ride it out until I feel better again. In a way depression is starting to confuse me more than DP, sometimes it just comes from out of nowhere and I feel terrible. I hope you're doing better.
