Jodienda76 Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 I have been battling depression since the loss of my twins, another best friend, and after I had my second child. I've been looking through Janet videos when she was at her prime, and it has gotten more and more depressing. I want Janet back for a pick me up!!!

Jodienda76 Posted September 10, 2014 Author Share Posted September 10, 2014 Well, its something I pretty much kept isolated. Its really tough to talk about, because you don't really understand what the hell is wrong with you. I knew it was depression, but I thought it would just run its course shortly. Days turned into months. Months turned into years. Then I got lost.I really didn't know how to handle it. I simply isolated myself, stayed away from everybody, and didn't talk about it. I pretended it didn't exist. It's something I didn't confront, nor did I take it seriously. Now I definitely know what Janet meant when she said she felt hopeless. It really takes a toll on you.

Rock & Roll Hall of Game Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 I personally couldn't imagine what you're going through right now. We all have our personal issues but once you hear someone else's struggle, compared to your own (my own) my struggles are child's play I wish you strength and happiness soon Jodi.. Truly I do. If I prayed, I would first and foremost do it for you xoxoxo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jodienda76 Posted September 10, 2014 Author Share Posted September 10, 2014 Thank you Mr. Game. No prayer necessary...LOL. It would be so much easier if I believed in prayer, but I don't. I'm making progress, bit there are things I just can't do without it setting off the depression button. Music used to soothe me, but it now makes me cry. It's so stupid, but it really does. I rely more on humor for comfort. Anywho. I was scrolling through here, and I hardly recognize anybody. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laveaux Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 Thank you for sharing your story. Depression affects a lot of people and they don't even know it, so its great that you are aware that you have an issue. I am a spiritual being, but you don't have to believe in the divine to believe that there are lessons to be learned with every obstacle life gives us. I believe that you will be back to your greater self and find clarity in your being and overcome your depression. You may remember me as the forum member karma, the first bitch. And Janhova will deliver all of us soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vaquero Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 Jodi I am glad you are back and have missed you I remember you telling me about losing your twins. I can't even imagine the pain of dealing with that. Depression is an awful thing. I went through it myself and was in a very dark place. It was a slow ass process, but eventually there is light at the end of the tunnel. Its not an overnight thing, but it will eventually happen. you know you can always come on here and talk to us...you are loved! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
