I'm so sorry you've had such a horrid weekend. I wish I had some wise words of consolation but I don't. I do however know how shitty depression etc is and how things that happened early in life can stay with us forever. You are not alone in this  |

Those dip downs are particularly awful. I find I just have to weather the storm for a while until it eventually eases up a bit. Try to be gentle with yourself until that happens. And keep up with the professional help, as a load of well meaning strangers aren't usually the best place to turn.

Sometimes all you can do is ride it out and keep reminding yourself it'll pass.
OP I hope it passes for you, and I hope you have professional support you can turn to. |

I find that sometimes you just have to feel sad, be down, cry, hide away.
It passes.
In regards to other women hurting you, you need to be happy in yourself before you let anyone get close. |

I was going to say that professional therapy is really hard to come by these days (thinking of depression and the level of help that is not medicinal or CBT) but I did think of anger management? That could actually be more focused and as 'easy' to get as CBT (though I respect that even cbt can be slow to get these days).
I understand the strong feelings but you've physically hurt yourself and you need to protect your own body (which ultimately means your own life of course). |

Hi, I'm sorry to hear you are, or have been battling depression. I understand feeling low, not sure if full blown depression, more like sudden mood swings....anyway..
Just wondering, as it was a wedding, feelings and alcohol can be running high. Sometimes, I know for me, that with alcohol, I'll react to things in a way I wouldn't if sober, because I don't have a reasoned thought process and decision making ability after drinking.
It's one of the reasons I rarely drink these days, or if I do, it's with people I trust and know we won't get in situations like that.
Have you thought about not drinking (if you do drink?) It might help with clearing thoughts/being depressed. |

OP I’m sorry to hear you’ve been feeling low. Events like weddings can be triggering as you associate them with memories of others you have been to.
The Samaritans can be really helpful. As they say on their site, hope this is ok to post -
Writing an email can be a calm and safe way to work through what's on your mind. Especially if it feels too upsetting to talk about on the phone.
Samaritans volunteers answer each email that comes through to jo@samaritans.org

This does sound like you have a good handle on your trigger(s) OP. The best thing to do for now is to avoid situations that will trigger you until you learn how to deal with it. It’s a lot g hard road but you are in the right track  |

FAB is probably not the best place to be if you struggle with rejection mate. ( I am not trying to be horrible or hurtful ) In an ideal world people would be polite and diplomatic as they would be if they were face to face with you. FAb however is littered with women & men i guess that get off on vying for attention and get a kick out of rejecting you. Its a form of payback for failings of their own relationships. Ok its a sweeping generalisation but its pretty Common. My guess is Fab is made up of 25% actual lifestyle swingers and 75% that are craving company.. i await the barrage of slapdowns. |
