Have you ever experienced being so depressed? My life has been so tragic last year 2017. Literally, the whole year.. Start of the year, my Mom's car was carnapped. Then last March my youngest daughter was hospitalized, so we have to celebrate her birthday in the hospital. Then July, my Dad was also hospitalized and was in the ICU due to stroke. We are still not getting up from financial crisis but then last November my oldest daughter was also sent to the hospital. And that's not yet the end, last December my mother in law was also sent to the hospital due to Bleeding. I am still under stressed and depression, and you know what? I almost commit suicide. Really! But I just prayed, and said to myself that this should not be the end of everything. Though I am still struggling on how to recover from this financial problems, medications and depression until now.. I am a strong woman but you know these problems made me so weak that I'm about to lose my life. Would you be kind enough guys to give me some tips on how to handle and survive Depression? Please let me know.

@gltolentino Sometimes times are not fair with us. They are harsh. We should cope up such problems and be strong. The best way to cope the depression is not to avoid it but to accept it.
This happened to me too. I just didn't feel importance of being so I just let myself be free and smiled to everything that God/Nature has given us.
We should live enjoying what's given to us!

@creativeaashish I am trying to accept. What's happening to me now, is that I feel so clueless and how to start things up, how to get back on track.. Seems like I am blank.

Keep being strong. It sounds like you have had a very stressful time lately and I'm sure we would all feel challenged by such events. Remember to stay positive and hopeful and practice happiness when you can. I think there will be many great things for you to enjoy now and in the future.
