The Real Reason Asking for Help Is Hard When You Have Depression

It doesn’t matter how bad you’re hurting, does it? Doesn’t matter how long you’ve laid in bed with the curtains drawn, hoping the darkness and quiet will offer some relief, an escape from all the guilt and shame you feel. Guilt and shame that comes from collapsing in on yourself, pushing away friends and family, [...]

Depression 17h

I had my psychiatrist appointment two days ago... And,I had a major change in my medicines.. Specially, my MDD medicine... He changed the medicine which I was having for more than a year... It was a huge change.. Medicines changes has always been a struggle for me.. When I first got diagnosed with Major depressive disorder, it almost took two months to adjust with the new medicines.. And, the issues I have gone for that were horrible.. That’s why I always feared the change.. The physical symptoms..
I have started consuming my new medicine.. But, the main I am having is my extreme hand shaking.. Even my hands are shaking badly right now.. Though I am taking medicines for that, it’s just getting worse.. I am afraid that it could a side effect of my new medicine.. I just don’t know.. Did anyone here faced something like this.. Please let me know..#Depression #MentalHealth #Anxiety #CheckInWithMe #MightyTogether

I had to stand on a chair to take this photo because I'm short 😅 but it was worth it. The sky looked so pretty and I wanted to share it with you. How are you doing out there?

When or where do you feel the most confident?

Happy Friday, Mighties! 😊

Exploring, owning, and expressing confidence can be a lifelong practice. It often takes self-awareness and compassion, especially as we learn how to see and understand ourselves more clearly. There may be moments when our confidence wanes, feels dependent on external factors, or grows stronger depending on where we are or what we’re doing. In those moments of clarity, our confidence can feel grounded and energizing, motivating us to better understand and trust ourselves.

💌 Gentle reminder: If confidence feels like a challenging topic for you, that’s OK — we get it. Our health, for example, can absolutely impact our confidence levels. Please know that you deserve those moments when your confidence peeks out or even thrives. We’re here with you wherever you are on that journey. We’re cheering you on and holding space for you.

Depression 3d

My best friend just told me how much she loves and supports me.. She has been always a special person in my life... And, she is super supportive.. I can't explain how amazing she is.. During my initial depressive days, I totally stopped talking to others and completely isolated myself.. I didn’t wanna talk to anyone and I was lonely.. I didn’t even wanna go to my College cause I hated everything... But,she always stayed by my side.. Even when I tried to avoid her, she just didn’t leave me alone.. She would be always there for me.. She has been my support system and she was the reason I used to go to college... I just love her.. When she told me that, I felt how loved and blessed I am.. I am just so grateful to have her in my life... She is the best ever ❤️... #Depression #MentalHealth #Anxiety #CheckInWithMe #MightyTogether #Gratitude

What’s a realization you’ve had recently?

Adulting can be challenging for many reasons. One of the biggest can be the “harsh,” difficult, eye-opening, comforting, or even transformative realizations that come from experiences shaping and reshaping your perspective.

Mighty staffer @sparklywartanks recently realized that she’ll have to do things even when she feels scared or anxious. If she wants better opportunities, she has to work through what she once believed she couldn’t. She constantly reminds herself that it’s OK to ask for help and that she doesn’t have to know everything. She doesn’t have to have it all figured out.
