Who to Talk too
I had an interesting conversation with a friend yesterday. I was asking for help.
His parting words were to feel free to call him if i ever need someone to talk to. While I do believe he is sincere and I may take him up on it on one day, the one thing I have found having suffered with depression for so long is that I find it hard to come up with anything to say.
While I'm doing much better dealing with overwhelming thoughts of doom, I still struggle to talk with people other than how is the weather, or go (insert favorite team here).
I find it hard to really open up to anyone, even loved ones. It has been really hard these last 10 months spending so much time with someone who has yet to learn to say a complete sentence.
I miss the classroom. I miss the interaction of the classroom. I still enjoy solitude but I've learned too much quiet can be deafening. So it is important to surround yourself with people who will listen.
The more the merrier. I miss my best friend. We could talk about anything. I have a new best friend and she is awesome, but there are somethings she doesn't get or have in common.
But either way it is important to not isolate yourself.
The link below has a good message about looking to help others. It is important to also realize there are many others hurting in silence.
You are not alone
