Hello all. Been snifin around this site for a while. Figured I'd officially check in. I like this place. Seems like a lot of good people here.
I've been a Christian my whole life - except for the 12 hours I disavowed Him. Boy, did He kick my a$$ seven ways to next Thursday over that. I totally deserved it. But as screwed up as my life is, He is there for me, getting me through anything I come up against. Both of my own mistakes (most of the time) and circumstances beyond my control.
Unfortunately I have no friends, so He is my best friend also. Maybe I'll find a few here. This post will time-out before I could even come close to telling my whole story. Cliff-notes version: severe depression my whole life, major ptsd for the past 15 years, black sheep of my family, 2 time loser at marriage, questionable father. I tend to rush in where angels fear to tread, but that's my job and I'm really good at it, so it's ok.
Not so good at computer stuff, social media or making friends. Maybe thatll change. Thanks for taking the time to read this. God bless.

Sometimes we need to give ourselves a break. Our sin is why Jesus died for us and I can relate:/ I want to be the best father I can but I find it hard to even pay attention to my kids sometimes! You admit your faults and that takes heart and tells me you want to change. With Gods help you can do this!!! Keep in touch and I'm praying for you brother!

Welcome aboard! You detail some pretty tough things in your post. You need to catch a positive break. I am glad you mentioned that you are a Christian. I have found that He can turn around even the toughest of circumstances! Do you go to a good church? Are there any groups you can join there? I have found that church small groups can be a good place to find some good friends. Will be praying for your situation - that positive things would come into your life. God Bless!

There are some really quality peeps on this site that are worth making friends with. You are not alone suffering the debilitating effects of depression, there are many others on this site dealing with this including myself. My first marriage was a disaster also but that was over 30 years ago. Glad to have you as a member of our family. Welcome to CC.

Thanks. Not the greatest at making friends or socializing. Not sure if or how this is going to work out.
