Thanks for your support, everyone. I posted a Thank You reply. ^ FYI, my screen name is inspired by my depression...and an Everclear song, so I am not ignorant to depression. Just been suffering from it for 40 years with no help from society.

Just been suffering from it for 40 years with no help from society. I will be honest, I was wondering about your username here. And welcome. Pull up a chair and make yourself comfortable. Sometimes just talking things out here with us can offer some help. We all do care very much. We're known to lean on each other when we're feeling down, and offer a shoulder when others are. No pressure. Just be you.

Please be assured that the people in this thread are here to support you - read almost any page in it and you'll see this to be true. Those of us who post regularly have suffered badly from depression and other mood disorders and hence can be very defensive when we perceive something that looks like an attack on what we do here. I apologize if you found my earlier post offensive. Society is pretty shitty when it comes to supporting people who are depressed. This thread is a place where people understand depression, and do what we can to provide support. Despite your rocky start here, I hope you come to find this to be a safe place to talk with people who share your pain.

My thoughts are with you all, as always. I have not posted in a couple of pages either. I'm just trying to deal with myself, I still think about you all every day. ETA: WTH happened in here? MOD warnings, in THIS thread?? ETA2: Ah, I see it's all better now

I was editing photos today, and I realized that once I complete the four photoshoots I have scheduled for this month I will have enough material to finally try for a gallery show! Of course, the operative word is "try," but it appears that all this hard work is really paying off. I have a lot of quality work that hasn't gotten into my portfolio. A few months of photoshopping and selection and I'll have between 20 and 50 photos that I think are show-worthy. I expect it will be another year before my work can possibly hit a gallery, but I'm ready to start selling myself. YAY!! *BIG BEAR HUGZ*

Your posts didn't indicate that you were suffering from depression. We couldn't know that. They came across as more of an angry rant at the idea of the thread without really knowing what the thread is all about. If we came across rude or harsh, it's because we do care deeply about this and it is a very emotional topic for all of us. Please feel free to join us, though. I assure you that you will be very welcome here. This...

It's possible to recognize that eventually, but it's always hard to not let it affect you. In general I only go into Critique for the fun threads, like "My cat will critique your port." (Your port has too many people, not enough mice.)

With me I have major anxiety along with the depression and they have put me on klonopin to allow me to actually fall asleep. Now I wake up at like 8 am wide awake and I feel rested. I dont really feel depressed like I was feeling for about a month. I do however have the early awakenings.. Does this just mean Im finally getting some sleep or do you think this is actually depression?? Im so confused about my mind lately. Trust yourself, if you are feeling better and getting better rest and feeling less depressed, chances are that you are in fact doing better. Keep it simple and try not to overthink things. Just bring it up next time you see your doc. I wish I could sleep into till 8

You're welcome, Clyde. Stick with us. It's a tough road to travel. Sometimes we take such a beating, but please remember this... part of your struggle is the enemy trying to stop you from reaching your full potential. To stop you from achieving. The enemy has a lot of weapons at his disposal and one of them is your mental health, but here's the trick - he can't defeat you. You can give in to him. You can surrender, but the enemy cannot beat you. The loudest voice the enemy will use against you is your own, but remember this, you have a strategic value to this world that is way powerful. If you didn't the enemy wouldn't be trying to stop you now before you get too strong. Believe it. You're here for a reason. We are in a battle here to save our lives from mental illness. In this thread, in this group we are Brothers In Arms joined together to fight back and reclaim our lives from mental illness purgatory.

I need to find a place to go to for therapy.

Too many people are ignorant and scared of mood disorders and mental illness. With better education we wouldn't feel so much like an oppressed minority. As it is, though, society almost treats us like lepers. I'm going to start calling this thread the MM Leper Colony. Nah, too cynical. Myself, I'm very open about my mood disorders. If I haven't mentioned it to someone by the third or fourth conversation I'm really slipping. Getting the info out early helps weed out the people who aren't able to understand.

Hello Photons! I missed you while i was brigged lol. I've had some awesome win recently. My friends that are launching their model agency want me heavily involved with it. I did their casting call snaps, i'm doing their model books also. They're also letting me have a show at their launch party, and want me to host creative photography workshops. Feels awesome, but there's still that little niggly voice saying i don't deserve it, even though i know i've worked like a maniac. I've been telling some friends, but my little victories are kinda squished by the fact that i found out one good friend does not take me seriously at all, just because i don't do mainstream stuff like weddings...and my family does not give a crap what i do. It's my birthday on Thursday and i doubt they'll even call. :< So kinda mixed feelings right now, i guess. Trying to stay excited though

Her dad said it wasn't normal for me to feel that way, which was obvious. I mentioned that I was making an effort to seek help. Our 1 yr anniversary was on Saturday and I couldn't contact her because she stated she wouldn't answer my calls/texts.

She has a kid :< And even with all this win at work...none of my family cares...to be taken seriously in my family you're supposed to lay back and pop one out as soon as you can (I do love kids, don't get me wrong, it's just not something i want NOW). So despite my career getting better and better, 99% of my family are just acting like i'm playing around. Well fuck, when i'm rich and famous guess who's not getting a Ferrari. lol I have basically stopped talking to most of them. Because all they do is go on about someone's baby. My 16yr old cousin got pregnant and they tell me i should be having kids too! AAAAAAHHHH!! And my birthday is Thursday. All i want is to see my two best mates, which is the only thing that's NOT going to happen. bAh. (They live in Australia. At least i can talk to one on Skype though.)
