So depressed that all I want to do is cry.

[Chicagofirefly84]

I am so depressed that all I want to do is lay down and cry. I have no idea what to do about it. I have not felt this depressed in year. I know what the depression is stemming from, which is people are trying to force me to have contact with someone I do not like, and have had prior fights with. It has been a year since I had contact with the person, and I do not want contact with them now. I want to get an order of protection with a stay away clause in it. I even emailed the district clerk's office about how to go about getting one. Yet I am still depressed, and have no idea what yo do about it.

I'm with Yvonne on this.  A visit to your doctor is in order to help you deal with the depression and its important to remember that nobody else gets to control you.  You are in charge of you and if you do not want to be around this person, you've got every right in the world to stay away.  If there is or has been the threat of violence, the police department should be your next visit and a protection order is a good step.

i'm sorry to hear about your battle.  I've been battling my depression for some time but have found that after therapy and some meds, I tend to hvae pretty good control over it, rather than it over me.

Good luck and please report back.

Sounds like a visit to your Doctor would be wise.
Sorry to hear your issues, it sounds very distressing.
No one should be able to force you to do anything that you are not comfortable with.

Your doc may give you an antidepressant or anti anxiety to help you through this time.

I suffer sever depression and am a mess without my meds.

Hope things work out for you.

Yvonne

Is there a distress center you can call and talk things over?
