Hi,
I don't know you very well, although I've read some of your posts. But I want you to KNOW you are NOT a burden, you are NOT hurting anyone, you have every right to hold out a hand asking for some help. We all do.
>>the end result is simply that I'm just being pathetic, and giving in,
<<You are NOT pathetic. It's the depression talking. I wish I could say or do something to ease that pain, a pain I know all too well. The only thing I can suggest is to see someone different perhaps, with a different approach to helping to treat depression. Different meds? I know how overwhelming it is to just even make an appointment, but it is worth a try.>>I really am all alone. I don't want to bring you all down but this is it, the last place I've got where anyone cares.
I'm not eloquent enough to say it, but Peter Gabriel was: :-)
"no fight left or so it seems
I am a man whose dreams have all deserted
I've changed my face, I've changed my name
but no one wants you when you lose""don't give up
'cause you have friends
don't give up
you're not the only one
don't give up
no reason to be ashamed
don't give up
you still have us
don't give up now
we're proud of who you are
don't give up
you know it's never been easy
don't give up
'cause I believe there's the a place
there's a place where we belong"S.
