Depression and Anxiety... The Hush Subject

Depression and anxiety are real. My family has a lot of history in this area. It's hard for people to talk about. We as a society try to hide and mask it. Pretend it doesn't exist. But it does exist and is very real. Maybe if we tried to face it head on we could help more people and deal with it better.

My personal experience is horrible. I don't care what most people think about me, but the ones I consider the closest to me I do. My best friends are very important to me. I am not sure why, but I have insecurities about myself. It's not because I didn't feel loved at home, or wasn't told good things about myself when I was young. I really don't know why I feel this way. I have thought about it so much. I feel like if I figured my own self out it would be easier to fix.

So right now, to be completely honest, I feel myself going down a dark hole, but I can't seem to stop or pull myself out. I want so bad to get out of it. But no matter what I do, it doesn't seem to help. The people I thought were the closest to me have disappeared and I don't have anyone to turn to. I can't talk to anyone about it. I just want help. The physical strain it has on you is unbelievable. It affects every aspect of your life.

If you feel depressed, don't put it off. It's real. You don't have to be on medication, but if that's what you need, that's not horrible and doesn't make you a bad person. I use a lot of essential oils and that helps. I try to speak positive things in my life. Hopefully someone else will show up in my life and help me and be the person I need.
