Dear Alba,

I can really relate to your story. I have also had the family breakups & the hostility & heartbreak that go along with that.

Hearing about your bully problem really speaks to my heart because I've been through the same thing at work and at school. I appreciate that you can speak so honestly about this.

I definitely think that there is a link between the bullying & the depression. The only times in my life, other than when grieving for loved ones, that I've ever felt depression with seemingly no end is when I felt trapped in a situation when I was being bullied. Their cruelty still echoes around in my head & I have to fight the self hatred very hard, because I was treated with so much hate for over half of my life. The bullies tended to hit me when I was low, dealing with grief and abandonment issues & poor health.

I found some help with counseling to let out the emotions. I am trying to learn to be more assertive, which is something bully victims often lack. The type of person who is bulling you right now has narcissism which is a type of personality disorder. If you google it you will find a description of your bully, I think you will find it matches. These people always hate me too. I can't speak to them at all. These people tend to target people who are: kind, compromising, intelligent, creative and likeable to other people (when they have high self esteem). Some flaw in their personality makes them want to destroy these people with qualities so oppisite to their own. Narcicisstic people have all these rigid rules that they cling to, but they think they are above having to stick to the rules of society. They have massive egos. There is heaps more info, that's the stuff I could relate to most out of it.

It sounds like you are smart. I don't think you should give up work. It wouldn't hurt to tak a break from work if you can though. You could analyse if you are in the right type of work for what your goals are. The things that you love to do or are best at. You could be in a job that's below your talent level. I was bullied a lot when I was doing unskilled labour, but now that I am a qualified accountant my skills are appreciated. I'm not telling you what to do, but it turned my life around when I retrained & I would recommend it to anyone who would listen. I am appreciated now because I am making full use of the talents I was given. I am sure you have hidden talents from the things you have said.

I really appreciate reading the things you have said because I have felt like I've been alone in feeling that way for so long & now I feel like someone understands finally. Thankyou :)

Remember, you are the one that matters the most, more than anyone else because it is your life which makes it your choice what to do with it!

Hi alba,

i am so sorry to hear your story and what you are going through.
I know it doesnt sound like much, but try to think and surround yourself with positivity. Are there any helplines you can call in your area?
You are not a bad person. U r a beautiful person who deserves greatness in life and will get better in time. You have to keep going to your GP until they can find some help and support for you. But please try to stay focused on the positive things in life such as your beautiful children who are a blessing in your life. xx

Alba,

You are lightheaded because i is one of the symptoms of your condition.
You have all the other symptoms most likely for the same reasons as well.
Your best tool probably will be distruction as you seem to be spinning in created by yourself visious circle of emotions, thoughts and sorrows.
I remember when I started it myself and still at relapses cant help doing it.

Try and purchase a book by Joe Barry - Panic away online
It is a great tool to stop anxiety, panic attacks and Lingering anxiety, which is my main problem as could be yours.

You aso have to attend sessions of the therapist as it will help you allot.

Take care
Marina

i am just wandering what contributed to my depression, i would like to ask for opinions becos i am finding for reason why am i like this, i have bad childhood seeing my parents fight and i am so scared as a child, and it stresss me each time my dad beats my mum, i am so scared everyday i live in fear when they fight, i pited my mum and love both of them dearly, but when they don't fight we are happy families.
and then i am so sad upset lost when my parents divorced at young age, then come my step mum who hates me and want my dad to chase me out of the house, she did everything to hurt me and poison my dad thinking to chase me out of the house, luckily my dad love me so i am safe but still that mental torture of her scolding, shouting accusing me and bringing hell to me druing that 4yrs old staying together, no peace, everyday she find fault on me and shouted and fight with me.
then i have happy marriage with my hubby , he's very good man except i guess during his depression time he keep on shouting, scolding and cursing and verbally abusing me it went on and on, but lately it stopped now he's better.
then i got builled in office and bringing me such mental toruture
i am wandering could all of these contributed to my depression. plshelp me what should i first do to get better? now i feel so tired, sleepy, all day and when i go out and see ppl i feel so scared, and panic attack come. i am better to be alone sleeping at home, i hate this, i used to go shopping and out now i am confined at home, how to be better.

the worst of all I HAVE A VERY VERY NO SELF ESTEEM, I AM TOO SHY, QUIET AND I ALWAYS KEEP THINGS TO MYSLEF, I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO EXPRESS MYSELF, the only person ican express is to my husband, before whenever we fight, i always take 1 or 2 hr to express myself to him, but sometimes afer expressing he get more angry and scold and verbally cursing me cosing me to lose hope but nowadays i dont know why i have stop expressing myself to him, i just give all up,i just keep aquiet and feel hurt, and i don't know what to think of say.
but i am a veryquiet, shy person to everybody and no one likes to talk or be my friend, i am so sad, i see alot of ppl so open up and happy but me, i am always left in a corner to be alone. i am not a bad person, bu t i don'tknow how to hypocrite or ;talk loud i am just quiet eventhough i enjoyed alot of things. and once i hv some misunderstanding with a office person, acutally it is not my fault at all, this friend betrayed me, but i just keep quiet and this person suddenly stop talking to me and hates me and ignore me and during a gathering this person totally ignore me and keep her group of friends and everybody ignore me, ifeel so hurt and i guess that also contributed to my depression, suddenly i regret helping her and hates everybody, do u think that also contributed to my depression?since then i keep to myself becos ifelt so betrayed and down. everybody seems to hurt me and punish me for things that i never did, when i hv tired to help them dearly and when thngs ddn't happen they just throw me.
