Depression

Gunnut...please please take SMS up on his offer.
It isn't sympathy...these guys actually care.

I am just so tired of trying to fight this fight called depression. I want to give up. The VA crisis line wanted me to go to to the VAMC last night, and I thought about going this morning. The crisis line said that he thought the VAMC could immediately provide treatment that would help the suffering not seem as bad. But I doubt that is even possible.

I appreciate all the offers of friendship and lunch, but I am not looking for a free meal or someone to listen to me ***** about how life sucks. Really, I'm not looking for sympathy. I wanted hope that things do get better, and I have received a few PM's of people who have are or going through something similiar. Knowing that it can be acomplished is reassuring, but at the same point I am so exhausted from battling this depression, I am not sure how much fight in me I have left. Might see how the weekend goes, and go to the VAMC on Monday if things aren't improving slightly.

No one is trying to give you a "free meal" or sympathy. I believe all of these people to include myself truly care. Especially a brother in arms. I have a great amount of respect for you sir! You did the toughest part already, and that is admitting you have a problem. No one wants that stigma. I was one of them. It shows more courage to ask for help than not to. We want to see you get better! Hang in there buddy.
