Overwhelmed by negative thoughts first thing in the morning.

Hi everyone,

I know this is a well covered topic, but it's a facet of depression that I find particularly difficult. Even when I've had a better day, even after I've had a better night's sleep, I still wake up and feel like I've been hit by a mental avalanche of everything that's utterly s**te about my life. I'm not currently taking any medication. If anyone can relate or share any coping tips I'd be grateful.

      Hi Jason,

      Thank you for responding. I'm so glad to read that you're much better, do you mind if I ask - do you think your depression was mainly caused by a difficult situation or low self-esteem, or a combination of both?

      Hi Jason so glad that you wrote in. Did I understand that you will go back to the hospital because you like to talk to people or that your depression is that bad again? Jason we will be here to support you. This is a great group of people that understand what it feels like to suffer with anxiety and depression. Will you keep writing to us and let us know how you are doing? Diane
