How do I rediscover my identity and sense of self that has been stolen by depression?

The past four years my depression has been unmanageable. I’ve never felt this empty and broken. I look at old pictures of myself and that person feels like a stranger.
Does anyone have any experience re-finding themselves after a similar situation?
Please, any advice or response is appreciated. I’m scared. #ession #An #ety #Me #MentalHealth

Can’t seem to get going today, but have to #CheckInWithMe

Could barely get out of bed this morning. Which is ironic since I couldn’t really sleep. I have so much to do. Taking my kids to school (and picking them up). Along with everything else I have to do and I have no motivation to do it all. My depression is kicking my ass today and I don’t see a way to get out of it. #ession #An #ety #OC # #OC #alHealth #Ea #EatingDisorders

Does somebody else feel like struggling with time management?

Meaning, I always think I’m going to be late 24/7 and then I arrive like about an hour early to everything. I calculate an unrealistic amount of time from one place to another, so I’m always way too early.

Everything seems like a struggle lately. I’m making bad decisions in a bid to push people away, but feeling lonely too. I don’t understand why my brain does this. #ession #An #ety #Lo #ly #n #nowayout

When things get a little too much for you

I love my family so much but sometimes I want to run away from them and I’m not sure if I’m the only one but you get so overwhelmed and you just want to isolate or go your own way. #larDisorder #De #ession #An #Anxiety

Why am I still here?

I feel so stupid, And people hate me for no reason. I could die and they probably would be happy. It would keep them from having to deal with the awful person that I am anymore. What’s the point in going on anymore in life If I’m nothing but am emotional, social and academic failure. I am and will forever be alone. The future is bleak and there is nothing for me here on this earth. #ession #An #ety #Su #idalThoughts #Ch #CheckInWithMe

Told my kids about my mental illness #ObsessiveCompulsiveDisorder #OCPD

A few weeks ago I had told my wife about my mental illness and my struggles. She is amazing. She immediately started asking what she can do. Even to the point of finding me a great therapist. I had be wanting to tell my kids and after this past weeks therapy session I decided to do it.

My 13 yo daughter cried when I told her. She’s been going thru her own things so I think me telling her of my struggles made her see she was not alone. My two oldest took it all in stride. They were happy that I told them and that I was getting help. I still need to tell my 6yo daughter. Altho with her it’s more of a what to tell her to help her understand.

All in all it was a good day.
