Hi,
my name is Ellie and I am 20 years old.

I had depression from the ages of 13-19, and when I began exercising it went away for a year, I even came off meds for a full year.
It is now back in full force and would love some friends in the same boat as I am to help support me.

    Hi Ellie,

    So sorry to hear you are down right now - tough place to be.
    I am stable right now, but I know depression all too well. I've been there way too many times.

    Feel free to add me if you like...

    Hi! I've also been through several relapses of depression and know how overwhelming it can be. Right now I'm going through a minor relapse mostly because of insomnia. Without the energy to keep up with my normal life, my healthy eating has been derailed, I'm too tired to exercise and I'm falling behind in school again (I'm a grad student), all of which fuels the depression. Feel free to add me and we'll see if we can't make it through this together!

    I relapse in cycles it seems. I refuse go to back on medication though because when Im on it I don't feel like I "feel" anything and face it, sometimes its good to be able to cry. :) I am in therapy though. Hang in there, and GET HELP if you need it. :)
