hi justine
I can relate to what you are going through. I was around 13 or 14 years old when I first became depressed. I only had one friend during high school and felt like a social outcast. I didn't go to any parties or go to any school functions because I was too worried about what other people were thinking about me. I am still struggling with depression because for years I refused to believe I had a problem. I wanted to seem normal and handle things myself so I kept a lot inside. You are very smart for realizing this soon that you have this illness and are seeking help for it. I congratulate you on that. Just gotta hang in there and know that you are not alone. Everyone has their problems and everyone deals with things differently. Work hard on your progress and things will eventually look up.
"Without struggle, there is no progress"
Justine,
You did a brave thing. Once everything calms down, you should sit your mother and father down and tell them how their argument made you feel. This is not very good for the children she babysits for. They were lucky you were there to support them. Thinking of others is often something we forget. You'll get through this.
Keep strong,
Josie

Justine,
Just checking in to see how you are doing and if you checked out the site. I'm leaving tomorrow to go on a Buddhist retreat for people with eating disorders (I'm multiply blessed hah hah)so I won't have computer access until late Sunday or Monday. Stay well - S
Namaste
I'm so glad you finally got it, I was starting to get really frustrated with myself! Hope you are feeling better and get a lot out of the site. It's been so helpful to me in so many ways. Stay safe.
Justine,
I gave it one more shot. It's not you it's me, all the messages bounced back. I'm not exactly a wiz on the computer as you've probably figured out by now! I tried a different approach. Hope this one works b/c I know you'll really like this site.
