Nobody checks in on me except my mom who is far away 😢

I love this! “Listen to learn”… not FIX! That’s beautiful! Thank you Katie for the support and always educational and kind content!

Thank you, Kati. This reminds me of: Telling a depressed person to feel happy is like telling a deaf person to listen harder. -San Antonio, Texas

I've been trying to find a therapists for over 6 months and I called yesterday hopefully they will call my dad so my dad can get me to see someone

Thanks for sharing this with us. I have been on both sides, I had someone in my life and I am someone struggling with chronic depression. Often I made the mistake of trying to fix them or telling them what to do and I regret that. The same thing often happened to me as well, maybe I was conditioned that way, it is still no excuse. I tried to do the right thing eventually, but I still lost contact with them while I was nearby and eventually I just left😢 I feel horrible.

I once tried to check in on somebody and he got angry and started saying that I was making things up and that he gets exhausted when he has to prove that he is alright. But when I stopped trying, he started wondering why. 🤷

I don’t have that support system sadly

thank you for the insights! also, if you know the person well enough you can bring them gifts and things they like or cook for/with them :) and other caring like massages or other healing arts can be very soothing and allow for emotions to exist and pass away or be distracted from them. ✌️

Depression can be overwhelming, but it's important to remember that you are not alone. There is hope and support available. 💛

I’ve been depressed for over 25 years and the worst part is that every one just leaves because they don’t know how to help.
I’m not really depressed as much anymore since I started celebrate recovery at various churches in the area and by using the app.
Finding people who knew how to help me was huge.

Once I was really struggling and talking with a friend I told her what I was going through. She offered to come and visit me, I said no thank you cause I wanted to be alone. She said she didn’t care if I wanted her to come or not that she was coming anyway. She stayed at my house for two days…she kept giving me advice on what to do and not to do, I felt like a 5 year old that had to be taught how to handle life…I thanked her for making the trip and caring about me but honestly in the end I didn’t know what to think about it…I felt terrible to have those feelings after she was so nice to me
