hi my screen name is display.

i'm feeling depressed and useless today. i have some errands to do but other than that i am just bored. and wishing my weekend consisted of some fun or interesting things, but i feel at a loss about how to bring that about.

i have suffered off and on from depression and anxiety for a few years now. i'm just sick of it.

i am also dealing with a new denture and that is hard. wondering what to eat every day.

i'm also tired fo emailing all my friends and relatives asking for help. even though i know they are concerned i am just sick of anxiety and depression.

thanks for listening,

Hi display,

I'm sorry you are feeling depressed today. Please know that you are not useless. I know depression suck. It will be tough at times, but things will get better, so hang in there.

Maybe you can try doing some fun activities at home? You can play games online, watch movies or do any fun activities that you like.
If you like, you can make something for you to eat that you like and you can eat with your new dentures.

I hope you will feel better.

Display,

so sorry you are still have problem with your dentures, however hang in there the reward will be worth it.

Know that you are useless, nor are you alone we are all there will you; supporting you.

How about going to a museum or the zoo for something different?

Peace
Trina

just checking in - i went out and did all my errands and everything went fine, except i may have spent too much on my men's pants.

i'm dealing with 2 things - depression which keeps me from going out much, and also my car is old and i get anxious thinking it will break down.

but for today i have accomplished my goals and now i can relax.

thanks for listening,

Uh, dentures can stink!! I do like that I can smile without being horribly self conscious! I can eat chewy stuff again. I had salt water taffy for the first time in years! It was great. I try to remind myself of the things the dentures make better when I'm feeling bad about them. I've been fortunate and not had much soreness. Mine are partials. I had morning sickness all 9 months with both kids, I was so sick, and I had no enamel from a genetic disorder. All of that combined made my top back teeth crumble. I was so embarrassed. Now I have the partial. It clicks in and looks ok.

I hope you have a good day and relax. Anxiety can really ruin a day. I went grocery shopping this morning and had a huge panic attack in the car on the way home. I breathed through and told myself it would pass and it did! We just have to find the methods that work for us.
