@Kmakm, we all know what keeping things inside does to us. I.e my father who would never ever admit to needing any help and that PTSD was all a load of bullshit.
My brother had a rough trot (mostly brought on by himself and a group of toxic people) but was brought up with Dad's beliefs and ended up phoning for help whilst standing on the platform ready to jump in front of a train. Thankfully my mother was able to get there at lightning speed. He ended up in the mental health unit for months.
I have my own issues but they are safely locked in a box in my head these days. Guilt has its own box in there as well. It has a big lable on the front saying "stay the hell out". I like to guard it with Fluffy the three headed dog from Harry Potter. LOL
This forum and the people who gather here are your friends although most of us have never met we feel for each other and can understand. Depression just fucking sucks and is like quicksand to get out of. One step foward, sucked back down.
Talk to whoever you need to, take the drugs you need to. Let it out. Put guilt in a box and drop kick it out the nearest window.
There is zero need to feel shame or guilt, you did not ask for any of this in your life. It is bloody hard and you have had a shit time before your own battle. It would definitely be unusual if you just bounced right back in a hurry.
And yes there are days went you want to throw up if you read one more positive analogy.
Hang in there Katie bird. Luv ya xoxoxo
