I felt disconnected and was seeking death . I got very depresed . I lost my sense of direction sense of clarity … I am still suffering from it . I am like lifeless now . All around me I see people successful and I am going crazy . I am on anti depressants . I need alot of support for this if anyone can help or if anyone else had gone through the same thing . Thank you in advance ! Profile Photo Participant Chavy 1 year ago @ yosp123 , im so sorry for what you went through and for the difficulties you ’ re facing now . I wish I had more to offer , but the only thing that ’ s coming to mind is to never give up !! The day will come when you reach the other side . It will take time and effort , but it ’ ll all be worth it . Another point I want to mention is that every single person has something to contribute to the world and so do you 🙂 it ’ s okay if you don ’ t feel so alive now . With time , you will come out the other side !! I do want to comment on your statement of seeing people being successful . I also used to think that everyone ’ s lives are perfect , more stable and better than mine . And I still think like that . But I came to realize that EVERYONE has something no matter how picture perfect they may look . Everyone is challenged in different areas . Hang in there and please do not give up !! You have a LOT to offer 🙂 Profile Photo Participant yosp123 Topic Author 1 year ago Thank you so much for your reply I really appreciate it I hope what you saying that I ’ ll se the other side comes true as I feel now there is no point of living it ’ s just aggravation I wish I can get more people to support me thank you again Profile Photo Admin Fay Brezel 1 year ago Building a support team takes time , courage and hard work . You can do it ! Are you seeing a therapist and psychiatrist consistently ? Both are a must and a first step ! Profile Photo Participant yosp123 Topic Author 1 year ago I am seeing both now and I don ’ t feel they are helping much I ’ ve been to 5 Yeshiva ’ s 5 different jobs and I saw like 10 therapists and now I had a mental breakdown 9 months ago so I just feel a failure and hopeless like my life is over I want to build a support group on this chat if anyone can give me strength to continue … ty Profile Photo Participant avacad0 1 year ago Life is meant to be beautiful , it ’ s the struggles that we have that makes it seem so bleak . Don ’ t give up ! There is light at the end of the tunnel ! Reach out for help and surround yourself with positive people . The more you will interact with people who are happy it will go over to you . Do not isolate yourself . I know it is easier said than done , especially if you are feeling this bleak . But the more you will be in positive company you will see a huge difference . Good luck on your journey . And remember we each have our struggles . So although it “ looks ” perfect on the outside , don ’ t get carried away . If only people out there would be more honest and real about themselves so many of us wouldn ’ t have this extra sadness of feeling so alone . Profile Photo Participant yosp123 Topic Author 1 year ago Wow amazing words thank you so much I hope I See the light at the end of the tunnel thank you Profile Photo Participant Chavy 1 year ago @ yosp123 , I just wanted to check in and see how things are going by you 🙂 Profile Photo Participant yosp123 Topic Author 1 year ago Hi ty for asking about me so I ’ m much less depressed thank god but I ’ m on a roller coaster I have a long way to go to settle ty again Profile Photo Participant Chavy 1 year ago I ’ m glad you ’ re less depressed and feeling somewhat better . Yes , life can be a big rollercoaster !! One day , minute at a time … Profile Photo Participant yosp123 Topic Author 1 year ago Ty very much yes life is a roller coaster I am learning from other people and seeing that I ’ m not the only one on a roller coaster Profile Photo Participant Verified Pro chayasatt 1 year ago Hello Yosp123 , Your honesty and see for respite is truly admirable . Trying to build an online support group can be very encouraging and helpful , but it should not take the place of a proper face to face support group . You mentioned you had worked with a number of professionals , but it does not seem that you connected with any one of them . Finding the right professional can take time , but it is worth the continued effort . It also seems like you may benefit from a proper support group and / or group therapy environment which meets weekly . Regardless of the community you live in , you should be able to find something near you that fits your need . I ’ d be happy to give you more specific resources if you would like to PM me . Keep pushing forward and you will begin to see the respite you are looking for , Chaya Profile Photo Participant avacad0 1 year ago You are definitely not alone . So many people are struggling immensely emotionally . Emotional things can be hidden . I can attest to that . Profile Photo Participant yosp123 Topic Author 1 year ago In response to chayasatt ' s post # 6770 : yes I would definitely want a support group do you know of any in Lakewood ? Profile Photo Participant Verified Pro Yehuda ( Hudi ) Kowalsky 1 year ago Hi Yosp123 , like I others I want to commend your courage in opening up about your struggles that at times feel hopeless . Like Chaya said having a face - to - face support group , or perhaps joining a DBT group can be very , very helpful in not feeling alone and is a very solid 1st step towards feeling accepted and ultimately in having a goal - oriented life . There are several great resources in Lakewood , feel free to reach out to any of the admins of this site or I can get you in touch with some . Wishing you all the best & peace . * Author Replies Viewing 15 posts - 1 through 15 ( of 15 total ) You must be logged in to to reply to this topic . Not a member yet ? Register now !
