Hi

[h0peful]

I'm new here. I'm very nervous and scared.

I just got discharged from a Psychiatric ward and I was diagnosed with MDD (Major Depressive Disorder) and PTSD. I wasn't able to talk about it with anyone (mental health professionals) at the hospital.

My out-patient therapist/doctor was honest with me that she cannot help me unless I start to talk. I so want to spill it all out, but I can't. It's very hard.

I hope that I will be able to, someday, soon.

Hi and welcome to the forum. Sorry to hear you are struggling so much... Do you think you are able to write about it? For some people it comes easier, I know for me it did..

I know what you mean. It was very hard for me. I was so ashamed when I first wrote my story down for the people on here to read even though I had read their stories and knew they'd understand. I didn't come back to read the replies until today and everyone was so nice. I feel better coming here now.

Hi :wave:

It is very hard to talk about things but it does get easier, just take little steps to start with so you don't feel overwhelmed. Like Nyx says, maybe writing it down might help make it easier.

Thank you everyone for the nice and kind words.

I still can't even write or utter the words. That I've been a victim of .........

I just wish that I could forget about it and live a normal life. But it just won't go away.

It's been rough, but I am hopeful...

Hi hopeful :wave:

Welcome to the forum.

Somehow, you have to work out a way to get those words out. Keeping things locked away inside you will eat away at you.

I know is tough - It's so very hard.

Please know that we are an understanding bunch. No-one here will judge you, or think anything bad about you, if you manage to tell us what happened to you.
