Hi guys. I'll just keep it as short as I can.
So since I quit all the drugs last Christmas I've experienced an overwhelming surplus of emotions and realisations which I had been hiding from for a number of years. I'm making progress with each problem I find and trying very hard to become a better person. Up until a few days ago I was really down in the dumps for months, I've had a few good days but I'm finding it hard to keep the ball rolling. Yes sad things have happened to me lately but I think I'm dealing with them OK. The last few days I was really chipper and actually felt content for the first time in months, and today I dropped it again. I'm not going to beat myself up about it because I realised that was a mistake I was making before. I'm actually just wondering if this is a normal thing for depression?
Just as a note last year was the worst I've been with an almost suicide attempt and many upsetting thoughts. Since then I've gotten way better but it's still a struggle. I've never gone to the doctors about this, and I'm not interested in taking pills for it as I'm over the worst of it now. I just want to know if there is anyone here who can tell me if this is depression?
Thanks dudes and dudettes
