Hi, I'm new, although you could probably tell that already. A friend of mine showed me this site a few months ago, they were full of praise for it so I thought I'd give it a go.
Why now? Well, today would have been my fathers birthday, I'm feeling quite a bit lower than I normally do, which, if I'm being honest is pretty low. My father died of SADS when I was a teenager, that combined with other events knocked me off kilter slightly. I now suffer with depression / post traumatic stress disorder and have a self destructive personality and suffer with social anxiety. I'm not on meds, although I think it would probably be in my best interests if I were I just can't do it.
Looking back, I can't remember a time when I wasn't depressed, just for the past few years it's been quite bad, I manage to work, but apart from that I just don't function.
Ha, this is a great introduction! Now I'm rambling too. Anyway, hi.
