RE: Another way of looking at depression
August 12, 2016 at 10:07 pm
About 3 months after I had gotten married I was incredibly drunk at a party and I kissed a young girl who was a good friend of mine. I knew it was a stupid thing to do.
I decided to actively avoid her after that night as it seemed the right thing to do.
I never saw her again because she killed herself on the 5 year anniversary of her own mother's suicide.
She had a mentor. She followed her mum.
Years later after my daughter was born I realised that to kill myself would be to give my daughter a greater chance of doing the same thing if she ever found herself in the dark place I was in.
I felt quite trapped in this world for a while after. Not wanting to live but loving my kid so much that I had no choice but to live.
I've been on anti-depressants ever since. But my life is good. I've moved on to better things.
If you have depression at the moment, you have to realise that things can get better, but it won't happen overnight.
If your taking medication, take them as if missing one could kill you.
Once you have depression, in my opinion, your chances of dying from suicide are far greater than any other.
