Can't be arsed to name change, haven't been on here for ages anyway.
I've got a chronic pain condition and it has been really, really getting me down. I'm bit of a 'coper' and shit at asking for help but I got to the point where I just couldn't manage anymore and I felt like I was unravelling and all I wanted to do was sleep. I felt (feel) awful and finally told my very lovely doctor.
I'm now on sertaline but still feel low, exhausted, sad and fairly useless tbh. But the big thing is that I feel like I've made the depression up, as an excuse for just being, well, a bit shit really.
My lovely DH is doing his best to support me and I have 2 beautiful children and they all just deserve more really. I feel like I'm letting everyone down all the time. I'm so pissed off with myself for being like this.
I'm sorry I know there are many on here facing much worse than this, so feel free to tell me to bloody well pull myself together!

Diagnosed with depression but I feel like such a fraud.
