Hey everyone!
How's it going? 😊

Depression can strain even the strongest relationships, whether with friends, family, or partners. It can be hard to explain what you’re going through or to ask for support.

💬 What’s your take?

How has depression affected your relationships?
What do you wish your loved ones understood about your experience?
Have you found ways to communicate your needs more effectively?

Let’s share stories and ideas to navigate these challenges together. 🌟

Take care,
Somya from the Carenity Team 🌼

I take each day as it comes, try to have a focus for that day. Today is pretty good, but it gives me a nudge every now and again. H

Lizzie when we loss loved ones some people are expecting to grieve in the same way with each bereavement, and are even more upset because they dont. this can be for many reasons, for example it could be the age of the loved one, how close you were to a certain person, how well they physically or emotionally knew a loved one. or lastly some of us may never have met a loved one for many reasons. or if physical events had taken place ,and a loved one could not be viewed by family and friends

this happened me was because, my son and i parted with bad blood between us, and when his baby daughter was born , and died age 50 minutes i was banned from attending her service or internment, her name was Rebecca Jade, but i called her Becky, and i bought her a small headstone and i go to her grave at least once a month with fresh flowers. i will always love my grandaughter, but possibly not as much as my Angel wife or son, who took his own life.?
