Grow a butt so you can kick it---- that's a great line I have to use it. Sorry you were hurting... sounds awful

I had a tooth ache...
and it hurt so bad I thought I would go insane...I took hydro-codone for a week straight and then had it pulled. Depression is different though...looks like you have two things worknig against you...not just one...the pain of your tooth ache certainly could have triggered the miserable state you are in. I feel for you. I know what it feels like. Try to keep your thoughts postitive, although I know it's easier said than done...but you can lift yourself above the depression...and just like the toothache...it won't be there forever...it will eventually go away. How soon depends on you...how can you make the toothache go away? Go to the dentist. How can you make the depression go away? Become stronger than it...get educated about it...seek and absorb support...and learn from experience. It feels better to feel good than it does to feel bad...whether it's the tooth or the depression we're talking about

I have to tell you girl
Life does not suck.

Life really is what you make of it.

I have really had one of the worst years of my life this last year. It has been a really, really awful year with very little good and a whole lot of really bad happening to my family. Yet we all still are enjoying life. There have been three deaths in my family, I have lost my job, my step-father has been in for two hospitals stays due to heart problems which we believe is partial due to his grief over the death of his younger brother at the beginning of the year, my wife had to go in for surgery, a friend of mine died and he was two years younger than me, my grandfather came close to dyeing and is still having problems but will not move up here closer to his only daughter so she can be there for him and so on. Life can get real bad at times I should know. Yet I am not depressed. I now that life does not suck. Pain is fleeting after all.

My advice is to find yourself and get out and figure out what it is that you need to do to get enjoyment out of life. I honestly think most people who are not enjoying life have just not found the right hobbies yet.

mysteria, when I read blogs on depression, my heart reaches out. I know
you're not wanting people to feel sorry for you anymore than I am when I write such things.  I understand completely, trust me.
