so basically, i dont know how to explain this, but,

for some reason, after many serious, unfortunate events, ive been depressed all the time, but ive had good days, and bad ones, ive been thinking poorly of myself for a while, but it was very minimal before.. the break-up.

on may 13th 2009 my amazing boyfriend who had never treated my badly in any way what-so-ever broke up with me. he broke up with me because he was wrongly convincted of some BS. and he was so worried about going to jail, that he was going to commit suicide.

the night he broke up with me, i almost committed suicide.

he ended up never going. and i was happy about that.. but,

ever since then i had cried myself to sleep every single night, i had a hard time getting to sleep, and i was never happy during the day, i was so depressed i couldnt handle it.

then after 3 months of that, on aug 24th, we got back together, i had missed him so much.

now, even though we are back together, and i still love him, i'm so worried all the time, i'm always scared, and i'm still always depressed.

he treats me amazingly well, he is the best guy ive ever met.

so why am i still this upset?

you went thru a lot of trauma with all that went before....it isnt unusual to suffer with a form of post traumatic stress disorder after your world gets rocked that way.

just be gentle with yourself and allow yourself to recover. try making a list of everything that is good in your life and keep reading it to remind yourself :)

if it continues, you may benefit from being able to talk with a therapist to help you work thru the fears and anxiety and depression.

hoping things get better for you

How you're feeling, believe it or not, is completely normal. Sometimes when you get as depressed as you were, it's hard to simply snap out of it because things get better for you. Your boyfriend and you are back together, you're living happily again, but there's still a part of you that may be permanently hurt by what you went through.

Perhaps it is because the memory is still there, or because there are other things going on in your life that contribute to present and even past pain that you are feeling. Is there anything going on in your life right now that may be causing you to feel a bit sad? Even if it's not something that you feel could cause you to be severely depressed?

Do you continue focusing on what your boyfriend did in the past? Maybe part of you feels it may happen again? Try to discover your emotions, talk yourself through them, and you could quite possibly come across the reason you are currently feeling the way that you do.

If you feel that these emotions are overpowering your life, maybe you should think about talking to a therapist. You are obviously experiencing a bit of depression, and talking can be the best way to get things back to normal in your life.

Hope all turns out well for you. Best of luck.
