Had a rough few months. The depression hit different this time. I've been depressed before so I know the signs but knowing it's coming doesn't make it suck any less. I called my doctor and we're adjusting my meds. Told my wife so she knows I'm struggling. Even talking about it here helps somehow. Just needed to say it out loud to people who get it.
Hang in there. I've been in that dark place too and knowing it before doesn't make it easier to handle. But you know you can get through it because you did before.
That's tough, brother. The knowing doesn't make it easier like you'd think it would. Take it one day at a time and be gentle with yourself.
Man, I hear you. It's rough knowing what's coming and being powerless to stop it anyway. Hang in there, and don't hesitate to reach out to someone if you need to talk it through.
Hang in there man. It's rough when it comes back because you know what you're in for. But you've beaten it before, so you know you can do it again. One day at a time.
Sorry you're dealing with this again. It's tough to battle that when you've got kids depending on you. Make sure you're taking care of yourself too, not just everyone else.
Sorry you're dealing with this again. Depression is real and it sucks. Have you thought about talking to your doctor about it? Sometimes just having someone in your corner makes a difference.
Hey, I hear you. Depression is no joke and it hits different every time. The fact that you recognize it and you're talking about it is already a good step. Have you been able to reach out to anyone about it?

It hits different the second time because you know what it can take from you. Glad you're here talking about it. That's the first step.
