Depression 2.

Damn. Just as I think it is settling down I had a bad day. Totally lost focus. Couldn't be stuffed. This is the challenge people who suffer from depression are up against.

It all started over 15 years ago. I had been appointed to a new position within the Education Department which because of its newness did not have clearly defined parameters. This lead to a certain amount of stress on my part. Despite making several approaches to my up line to review these parameters I was unsuccessful. I subsequently suffered from quite severe burnout. It all culminated in 2008 when I had a breakdown and resigned from teaching. While I am still on mega doses of various anti-depressants I am able to wake up each morning and function having run a successful business for the past eight years.

Now I feel it is time to pass it forward by supporting other people going through various degrees of anxiety, stress, bi-polar, and other mental depression related conditions.

Hey Tony. You've been strong so far obviously, because you've come this far. It will get better. Thanks for having the desire to help others.

Praying for you Tony. Everything will alright if you let God take over, that's what I'm doing these days. Alot of things aren't going right with me. I hope you become successful in this business.

What a great idea to help others who are in the same situation! I am sure this will bring you success - and help you to get up in the morning with inspiration and purpose!

Thank your for sharing your story, depression can be paralizing. Been there. I am happy to hear that you are able to run a successful business. That is something to be happy about. I wish you all the best.

I haven't been diagnosed, but often feel the symptoms of depression. I think it has more to do with an auto-immune disorder I am being treated for.

Thanks for your post, Tony.

Thank you for sharing this, Tony.

I think it's probably severely underestimated by people who have never experienced it......

My brother suffers from all of the above & I know it can be hard sometimes...it's good to know someone is there and cares!

My daughter has PTSD, anxiety, depression and Borderline Personality Disorder - I know how these things impact not only the person diagnosed, but also on the whole family. I shall look forward to seeing your site :)

Sounds challenging. I think I will look into PTSD too. I think Personality disorders might be a bit outside my field of understanding. Might research it and see what happens.
I need to be careful not to lose focus though.
Thanks for commenting Jude.
