Has anyone ever had a hormone imbalance be
the cause of their depression? And what
vitamins can a person take to help? Why
is it so hard to explain this illness to
my family and friends? Love a reply

Not sure about hormonal imbalance. Try
salmon oil, it's supposed to be good for
depression. As for family and friends,
i'm there and doing that. Some friends
quit talking to me after I tried to commit
suicide, when we knew I was depressed but
not how severly. Others have been really
good. My family tries but they have no
clue. When I get really depressed they
get mad at me like it's me fault and I
like feeling that way. I have told them I
would rather blow my brains out or run my
car into a power-pole than feel that way
and I wish that my husband had just left
me on floor the first time to commit
suicide. My mom has sympathy for others
with depression, but when I need her most
she quits coming around and talking to me
or is really mean and says hateful things
to me. I just wish they could trade
places with me for one day when I feel
like that. Just know your not alone. I
saw that you're from canada. Which part?
Went to b.C. Once and loved it. Always
wanted to go back. Hang in there!

I'm sorry I have never heard of hormonal
imbalance due to depression only chemical
imbalance. As for family....I have a few
disorders such as: a panic disorder,
anxiety disorder and trichotillomania.
All are very difficult to explain to
others who are not in the same frame of
mind as you are. They cannot understand
why I fear stepping outside of my door or
why sometimes death seems better then
being alive. I don't even bother trying
to explain to anyone anymore.
Stacey_ your a very courageous woman and
have been through alot. I truly admire
your strength in all of this honey.
