Hello everybody,

I've been away for a while and I almost forgotten the URL to come back here. I remember lady blue bug or something like that and this brought me back here. A lot of things had happened to me the past months that I decided to isolate myself even on here. I've isolated myself from many people over the one year. I've shut myself up from people and hardly talk to others too. It's very difficult to talk much about it but I'm back on here....

How's everybody?

Howdy Viv. I'm still here. Still doing crazy, just crazy, thanks. But I seem to be the happy kind of crazy so I'm having fun with it.

Thank you Lynn and mar09...

I do miss all of you and the things we talk about. Life is worst than messy for me right now and I'm not sure if I can be of any help to anyone out there. I hate to be branded to just take and not give but I'm worst than absolutely dried up and have nothing to give at this point of time.

Depression....suicidal thoughts...everything else....

I think I left before you joined. And came back before your return.
Good to have you. Welcome.

Praying for you. Feel free to receive for a while. It's not 'taking' when Jesus is giving.

Do you have local support where you are? A pastor, wise older female, Christian counselor?

Pastors here said I never give and only know how to take. I didn't want to talk to them anymore...

Christian counselor? They are too expensive...can't afford to pay them...

Basically, I'm just feeling real real down...

Don't let your emotions fool you. Isolating ones self isn't bad unless you're focus isn't on Christ either.
I'm sorry youve been through so much.
Praying for you

Wait, what? I didn't know we had forum pastors here. If we did, I wouldn't trust them. I'm a minister (local license, minor minister, not a pastor) but I know I wouldn't be able to give you any real advice from across the internet... or across the phone, or video chat even. I would have to know you personally to even have a chance of giving anything passing for advice. If a pastor on this forum gave you advice, take it with a grain of salt. Maybe a whole salt shaker.

I think she meant local pastors in her area, Lynx.

Viv, welcome back! Receiving constructive criticism is soooo hard and can really hurt. But we can take it and make it into something useful with a little determination! One of the best ways to battle depression is to help others, so perhaps you can accomplish two goals at once by finding someone who needs help even more than you, and throwing yourself into their world in a wonderful way. You'll feel better, and will be "giving back". You'll feel a bit more as if you have a purpose and are needed, which is important for us all. Give it a shot! I'm praying for you. *hug*

Whoa, I was actually just thinking about you on my walk home from work last monday, believe it or not. Was wondering if you were still a part of this forum, had no idea you made this thread.

Welcome back. And I hope youre doing okay. Will pray for you.
