my own time

Hi im claire and i have been living with depression on and off for the past four years. It all started in 2005 when i had a lot of changes in my life, at that point i had just left school and started college i had also moved homes with my parents. Theses changes unearthed feelings that i had buried over the tragic death of my brother three years before. At first i couldnt accept that there was any thing wrong with me and my parents tried there best to help me but under the pressure of the depression i went down the wrong path and made some bad decisions but then i meet my wonderful partner aaron who has been like my knight in shining armour, but still i have my times when i get back into a cycle of feeling bad and thinking about all the bad things in my life.

At the moment i can feel myself slipping back into that cycle because of pressure from family members to make more of my life.

I just hope that being about to share how i feel and what ive been thought with others that understand what its like themselves will help me
