I have lived with depression since I was ten maybe younger, But I know I stoped sleeping at ten.

I would stay awake day dreaming until four or five in the morning then fall asleep and not want to get up in the morning.

That got me in a lot of trouble through out my life.

I am sixty-three and would still stay up all night if it wern't for my medicne.

 

I messed up the frist part of my life because of my by-polor diorder, I didn't have high highs. but, Ihad low lows and stayed depressed through most of my twentys.

Iwas thirty  before they figured out what was worng with me. I resisted medicne for years and started taking it by the time I was thirty five and stay on it all the time .

The depression knows no bounds and even with the medicne I fight the depression.

Thank you for writing this.  It helps others to hear of your personal experience.  Depression is so very tenacious isn't it?  I am now 43 and I feel I have had it my whole life.  I have my periods of time where I am feeling good but it seems to always return. 

 

Anyways...nice to meet you.  The community here is very supportive.  I hope you keep coming to read and to share.
