I hope that one of the links below will be what you are looking for. I am a 46 year old male who has been diagnosed with bipolar disorder. I know how you feel and that it is good to have someone to talk to. Good luck. I wish you well!

There are MANY wonderful on line support groups that can be very helpful.  Medications can help, too.  \nI understand how you feel because therapy is not an option for me, either.\nBut my support group keeps me hanging in there and fighting my demons.  And I'm glad to be alive.... crazy or not!!

look into support groups, ask your doctor about groups that meet.  exercise in warm water is really good.

Another place to "talk" to others is the mental health sanctuary online. \n\nhttp://www.mhsanctuary.com\n\nThey have postings and areas for families of people with various mental health disorders. They have an area of resources for books and materials and a list of counselors as well.\n\nHope that this helps!

Mind (www.mind.org.uk) should be able to point you in the right direction and give you plenty of good advice.\n\nTheir website has stacks of information on all forms of mental distress, including post-natal depression.

Look in the phone book under counseling, or something similar.  Most cities have free 24-hour services that can help you find someone to speak with.  That's if you feel you are overwhelmed with depression.  If it's minor depression, exercise.  Studies have shown that exercising can be just as effective as an anti-depressant for someone who is only moderately depressed.

Are there any organizations in your community who can help you? I wish you the best, sweetie.

DEPRESSED. All joking aside, I believe you can type "Medical Terminology" in the Yahoo Search bar. Medical Dictionaries have a word (or more) for every condition and everything.

You might try discussion groups online, such as that linked below.\n\nIf you do check it, I think there are lots of people taking part in the discussions (and chats) who are actual sufferers, and should be able to offer some helpful ideas.\n\nLike anything else on the Web, it's important when reading posts in groups, or taking part in chats, to be aware that some people are trying to sell something.  And some people may challenge the idea that there is any such thing as FMS. Just ignore anyone who isn't being helpful -- don't get yourself worked up by trying to argue with them.

As a cfs, fms, rsd, chronic pain support leader, I can give you suggestions. Your local weekly shoppers guide should have a section with support group information. They may ask your question in some part of the guide if you request. The newspapers also have sections with support group information. The United Way usually has support group information, and maybe the Red Cross. \nI was not comfortable with the support groups in my area because I felt they were more pitty parties. My goal was to research and share information about any illness, disease, or syndrome. At times we laughed and sometimes we cried. Those times, were times that we just needed to let go. not often. \nFamilies of this member need support also. It would not be a bad idea to look for a group for you and your family. Here again, you may want to start you own group. \nLive one day at a time. Oh, you may be able to find chat rooms for you to get support through. You can get so much help with the groups. Just type in "heart implants" in your search and you will be surprised at what you find. \nGod bless you.

Most hospitals have a mental health ward.  They usually carry pamphlets that have information on various treatments used to help the depressed.  You also may want to check the phone book for a suicide hotline or a mental health clinic.
