Feeling much better today

Thanks to those who reached out to me yesterday. I am feeling much better today and I'm out of the dark funk I was in yesterday evening. It got pretty bad and I even called my therapist last night. Him, Joel, my buddy and my kids were all there for me last night. I feel like myself today.

I do have a therapy appointment today and he's giving me extra time today.

Just saying guys if you get in a bad head space don't hide it, don't keep it to yourself. Reach out to someone. I did and I'm still here today because of it.

I’m glad you’re feeling better and glad you reached out. I’m glad you have therapy today and hopefully it will help. Don’t ever try to hide it. It always makes things worse. Trust me on that. Remember you have friends here and if you ever need to talk we are here for you. We’d all rather talk you through the worst of it then to never talk to you again. 🤗

@MyMonstersAreReal thank you you are so sweet. I was very open with Joel and he knew what I was going though last night. I'm always very honest with him.

I would like to put a little light shining towards you, if you don't mind. Numbers 6:24-26 NIV "The LORD bless you and keep you; the LORD make his face shine on you and be gracious to you; the LORD turn his face toward you and give you peace."

I wish the very best to you and I hope the words help give you a bit of peace inside. I am so glad your therapist gave you extra time, and that you have found one who really gets you.

I may have given you a delayed response, but I was unaware of the post/message. I am new here, so please accept my best wishes for you.

@Cerra thank you for the kind words. They did help.

I'm doing much better thanks to my partner, best friend, kids and therapist.

I am so glad that you're doing better. I've lost my(sane)self in my deep and dark depression, anxiety and loneliness, too - but, shit, I'M A MAN, right? I should be able to handle this... Well, i've learned the hard way that I can't - and I just reached out, too. Waiting on my first appointment, but just knowing THAT gives me hope. 🤗 for you and Joel.

@Trav2024 I'm glad you reached out and got help! I can hit you hard and fast and it can be very scary. I hope your appointment goes well and you start to feel better

Trav2024 · 51-55, M

@Cigarguy Thank you - and don't hesitate to DM me if you ever want to talk.

Cigarguy · 41-45, M

@Trav2024 and the same goes for you my friend.

I wish I had the courage to do that and reach out. When I'm not okay I usually just join this website and write what comes to my mind. It feels pathetic to me but I'm glad I have this outlet of SW.

@AoNoSora Writing what comes to mind is an excellent way to work with our feelings. So what feels pathetic to you? What do you mean by that? Of course you don't have to reply, but I don't talk much here yet, probably because I am fairly new.

So glad you are feeling better. I hope therapy goes well for you today.

Cigarguy · 41-45, M

@Barefooter25 thank you. I always feel better after my therapy. I have a very good relationship with him. He really understands my struggles

Way to go on reaching out for help when you needed it.

Cigarguy · 41-45, M

@HootyTheNightOwl I have fought to hard to give up now. I have so much to live and fight for I wasn't going to lose it all because I slipped into a dark place. Thankfully I have so many people around me that cared enough to help me when I needed them the most

HootyTheNightOwl · 41-45

@Cigarguy Yes, you've come a long way through your life, and you've still got so much more to experience here, too... hopefully, a lot more happy stuff as well.

Cigarguy · 41-45, M

@HootyTheNightOwl Trust me I'm not done fighting yet!!
