diagnosis

[just-me]

today was the day ive been diagnose. the doctors thinks im depressed and has booked me into counciling. fun!. if im still gettin worse in 3 weeks time im goin to be put on tablets.
but my brother and mum have had depression and have been put on tablets. my mum couldnt have got better with out them, but my brother had terrible side effects and they didnnt seem to help him that much.
i dont know. ill worry about that i 3 weeks.
but what do i do now?
my friend has depression and all of our friends know, we just do. but i just cant tell anyone. they all now me as a happy bubbly person, how wrong could they be.
so i think ill just keep this to myself. :/

Sorry to hear about that. If your depressed, do you want people to know and give you sympathy??
I've wandered about this when I was depressed, unfortuantly people knew. So I got moaned at!!!!!
These are my friends remember...

Personally I can't see how tablets can help, but if they do great, because your getting worried and stressed about taking them and well...I can't see how that would help. My view on things is to stuff what other people think, i'm who I am, i can't change it and if others can't accept it...then stuff them.

Stick two fingers up to people like that and live through life with your head held high, be kind to others who are kind to you and smile!!!!
If that's a little hippie ish then fine, but...I think it works and it made me feel much better. :-)

Keep it to yourself, maybe tell your closest friend, different people react differently. Some will try to help, and some will try to knock you down but they are the ones that really arent worth the time or effort. Don't even give them a second thought.
You might be depressed but it won't stop you living your life. You already know that you can message me when ever you need. You'll get through I promise.
