Hi Megan, i read your note depression (& self harming) is a mental illness that can be cured with medicine and therapy. you will get better in time in time. how you feel is just part of the illness. you just need to remember that YOU WILL GET BETTER. It is an illness that needs treatment to get well. If you need to talk i am here for you as is guidance at the college and your GP and social worker.

just feel like it isnt working and just getting worse

stick with it Meg. it just takes time thats all. Maybe better medication if its not working

trying everyday trying to keep a smile on my face

you are going great. you are aware of the need for change. you are growing everyday

just a step forward then 5 back thats what it feels like

yep. thats what depression feels like Meg, but IT WILL PASS! just need to tough it out

yep for as long as possible

it will pass i promise you. it burns itself out in the end and you will find some peace of mind.

you promise

yep

wish it would hurry up

i've been there. trust me

i trust you just not myself

then it's time to trust someone else

these messages show me that people can and do care about me even though sometimes it doesnt show
