Musician:
Is it possible to chat with other members online in this forum?
I just discovered this website and would like to talk to someone live.

Sure Moonflower,
My name is Daniel and I suffer from bouts of depression. I sometimes think I'm a narcissist because my self esteem fluctuates, I am in counseling and talked this over with him. He said that I'm not a narcissist, just being hard on myself. Anyway, I'm just looking for a support group and have been doing research online about depression etc...
I didn't feel like going in to work today, so I didn't (lol)
I'm thinking about making a career change and just looking for some empathic people to chat with. I've had a real hard life, but see glimmers of hope every now and then. Is it just me, or do others have to pump themselves up just to get out of bed in the morning. Remind yourself you're not such a bad person. Because I am an extrovert, I draw my energy from being around other people. I like to be "on" which I describe as being positive and energized, but it's exhasting and I'll often sink into depression. I take medication for depression. I think I may suffer from some Anxiety disorder. I am currently taking prescription medication for that. I have Social Anxiety, but am trying to associate with people who are positive and uplifting. I can really be alot of fun. Is it just me, or does anyone else ever suffer from personality conflicts. I always believed I could get along with anyone. Is it just me? OR IS IT THEM (LOL)!
Thanks in advance for your input.
P.S. Does anyone here ever get depressed?

Anonymous:
No it's not just you! Yes, I get depressed. Yes I have trouble getting out of bed some days. It's because of my childhood. How about you? Bad childhood? Want to talk more? Cheers...

Yep!!!

By the way, I have had an anxiety disorder as well, since adolescence (now in my 30's).   Depression is a common thing that very often goes hand in hand with anx. disorders.  

I'm not entirely sure if it is for biological reasons or situational reasons (how too much anx. affects one's life).  

Take care,

BT
