Depression Member Introductions

My name is Ruth Wu and I have suffered from major depression for the past 10 years.

My boyfriend is depressed. I would like to discuss the sexual side effects of anti-depressants with other people who take them.

Just want to come to terms with my chronic pain!!! Arrrrrgh!!

I am a THREE time cancer survivor. This month I have survived breast cancer for 5 yrs. My experience with cancer started 28 yrs ago with Hodgkins. 18 months later it came back. They say the breast cancer was most likely caused from the treatments of the Hogkins. There is hope and there are miracles. To me the future is a scary place as far as my health goes. However, I am so happy to be here. Never give up, that is my motto.

I have suffered from depression for 10 years and it won’t go away. It interferes with every aspect of my life and it makes it hard for me to do day to day activities like work and find joy in the simplest things. I don’t want it to run my life anymore. I don’t want to get out of bed in the morning ever. I hate my life.

I HAVE LIVED WITH IBS FOR A FEW YEARS NOW. ALL THE PAIN AND THINGS THAT GO WITH IT. THANX FOR A SUPPORT GROUP LIKE THIS.

My name is Michelle Jasperson and my son Bailey has a thin CC. Along with a thin CC he has multiple other diagnosis and I do not have a support group for help.

Hi… I am Al… and I have a depressive condition called Dysthymia. I have lived most of my life with this condition. Last year I had a major depressive event and sought professional help. I want to connect with anyone who has this condition, or any type of mental health issues, to gain more knowledge of this disease and possibly help someone who is in need.

I was just diagnosed with this condition and want to talk with other people who have it

Hi,
Its great to see a community of people helping people. I suffer from major depression, hypertension and IBS. I would be happy to help anyone who has questions about their illness. From my long history of depression and hypertension I may be able to make some suggestions that may help you.

Hi everyone. My name is Connie and I live in Raleigh, NC. I currently have severe IBS and GAD (Generalized Anxiety Disorder). I would love to make friends and help support people that deal with things like I do. Hope to talk to you all soon.

I’ve been suffering from depression and social anxiety disorder since I was about 15. I’d love to meet other people with similiar problems and see how they deal with the “day in and day out” aspect of it.

I am depressed. I need someone to talk to. I need opinions and options.

Hi all, my name is Terri. I discovered that I have Retroperitoneal Fibrosis in November of 2005 by way of gallblatter surgery. After that everything has just snowballed down hill. I have had 5 operatations. I am now on about 35 medications a day. Mostly morphine type pain killers. I have something wrong with my left coronary artery which has caused me to be on oxegen 24/7. I would love to chat with you all.

My spouse has clinical depression and I want to learn as much as I can about it. Hopefully to help him, and to help the rest of our family survive and prosper.

My boyfriend insists that I am depressed and suggested that I look online about it, so I thought this would be a good place to start.

Hi, my name is Genie and I was recently diagnosed with Pancreatitis. I’m interested in chatting with anyone else living with this disease…my latest MRI/MRCP showed an inflammation and a blockage, but they don’t know anything more at this point. I need to have a consultation for an ERCP and wondering if anyone has had one of those tests as well. Thank you in advance for reading this and for any replies. Hope you have a great day!

I was diagnosed with chronic pancreatitis about 5 years ago, since then I have lost my job, friends, life savings, and my self esteem. If I could have someone to talk to about diet and chronic pain and Doctors who don’t have a clue about digestive enzymes It would help me so much.
Thank you even just for listening. I am very Isolated and
depressed because I am unable to take care of myself.

my daughter in law had surgery…how do you deal with it all…not knowing…
