Fighting Depression (9)

1 Name: Hemi : 2012-06-17 20:52 ID:yDts/Ols [Del]

Things have been really hard for me this past week, so I guess I need some advice?

First, mid week my step brother killed himself. It was a very stupid and selfish reason for why he did, and I am very pissed at him for doing so. But at the same time it still hurts. I grew up with him and knowing I will never see him again is heartbreaking.

Well. On top of this all I was really down. And for whatever reason this me and my (ex) boyfriend got into a fight to the point where he broke up with me. We have been fighting a lot over the last month and it was coming.. but I've been really let down about it because we we're together for a year and a half.

So.. in other words I've been really down..

I don't know what you're feeling exactly, but I want you to know that I'm supporting you in spirit.

*hugs as a friend* Sounds like you had it rough. I can't really give any advice, but I can tell you that you CAN get over it. I know you will miss you step=brother, and be sad over your break up, but don't let it make you see the world as a horrid place. You'll get over it over time, just keep looking towards to the future.

I think I can relate. I lost a friend from suicide and I have genetic depression. One thing I've learned over the time with depression is it's something hard to fight alone. Find a friend and hold onto them that's how to make it out of this hole. As far as your step brother. It's hard, no matter how much time you take, to get over the death of someone But we all fight death everyday, some are just stronger than others. I wouldn't be mad at him so much as have pity for him. Especially if he saw that has his only way out. Make it a goal in your life to live on to live the life he didn't. And remember the good times you had with him and do your best to make him proud. I know it's hard, I've been there, but sometimes we have to make ourselves stronger whether we want to or not and we have to fight every day. . Now about your ex. True love is meant to be no matter what happens. I know that sounds corny but it's true. You can learn and gain in any situation and you may lose some in situations. I want to ask you this, If nothing else just from the arguments you learned what needs to be done to strengthen the relationship correct? Things will happen in our lives that throw us for a loop but we have to grow and learn from it other wise we'll just end up the same again. It's how I've found peace in my life. Talk to him about it, if you truly love you and agree to work out your arguments and struggles. If it's true then he will feel the same way back. People argue and difficult times come up, but people also love and help eachother through those difficult times. I don't know if this helps you any, I hope it does. Stay strong and Carry on. Mkay?

Woof...

Well, I'm not one for giving long-winded advice upon the subject of depression, and please, please, please don't take this as a simple dismissal. My advice to you: Stay positive and smile.

I can't vouch for your brother; death is something that hits where no amount of online text can resolve, and I'm very sorry for your loss. I couldn't begin to imagine losing one of my siblings. But as far as your ex-boyfriend: screw him.

I know that exiting a relationship, no matter how unpleasant it may have been, is never easy. But, now you have a chance to find someone else; someone who'll treat you right, someone you can relate to, and someone who would rather resolve a conflict, rather than edge it onwards.

Everything gets brighter from here, my friend. Keep your brother in a warm place in your heart, and carry onwards with confidence in your steps. Love can happen again, as history and personal experience has proven, and you may get lucky with this second chance at true happiness.

Hope my ranting advice helped in some way, Hemi. If you ever need anything, just give a shout out.

Everyone has difficulties in their lives. Me myself, there was never a month that I am not going to be depressed, feeling down like everything is just falling apart and like no ones there to support you. But hey, you should always think positive at least, release the stress some time, I know I'm saying too much but thinking about what's happening nowadays to you and trying to at least give yourself a rest is good way. Overstressing yourself may be bad. Think about how far you've gone, think about the people around you that you know will be there for you. Try to talk to a close friend or relative about what your feeling. I can relate to your problem and I hope you'll feel better soon :)
