Hey dear Barbara,
I don't know you and I am not exactly sure what to say, but I just wanted to respond to your post. Sounds like you are going througyh a real low. PLEASE don't believe those depression-induced thoughts that you are a failure etc etc. Not true not ture not true!!! You do remember times when you did NOT feel like a failure, right? See... depression makes you feel like that, and it becomes even unimaginable to imagine anything else. But that is wrong.
Nobody is a failure. Nobody is here for no reason. You know what, I mean of course it is difficult to compare two different lives, but for so long, for years, I thought I might well spend the rest of my life isolating, obsessive-compulsive, stuck, anxious, unable to even look outside sometimes for fear of seeing something "scary"... stuck in a little world, with so many wonderful thigs I wanted to do but just feeling unable to get anything started, because I was so... WEIGHED DOWN by all that stuff... and see, things did change. Things can ALWAYS change. Might be a med, might be an episode lifting, might be something else... might just be the grace of God. I do believe in God. And as I said, I don't believe anybody is here for no reason. Why would God have created you if not for a reason???? He usually knows what He's doing, right???
So many lives have had to go through extreme hardships, only to be turned around and become something amazing and actually make this world a better place.Kat26
