Hi! Wow, I just joined today, and I'm 22 as well! I've had depression for a long, long time. I'm just sick of how it hasn't gone away. I've been reading more and more about it and now I realize I have to do something myself in order to get better. This website seems like a good start. I'm a little shy, but I do hope to make new friends on here and hope I can help others with their problems as well. I'm not sure what else to say for now.
To Inner Hope, I really want a baby, but I know I'm not ready for it yet. My sister is actually pregnant (and she's 23). She's having her first baby next month..it's my first nephew! I can't wait to be an aunt. I suppose it's the next best thing to being a mother. I understand you being scared and anxious and excited. Babies are a lot of responsibilities. Good luck! :-)

I just wanted to say hi to everyone. You can call me Inner Hope, as I have had an inner hope to keep me going this far, even when I haven't realized it.
I'm 22 years old and have a lot of problems. I feel like I could list a book of them sometimes. I will share that I am 26 weeks pregnant with my first child and filled with different emotions regarding the pregnancy such as being overjoyed, scared, excited, anxious...
I have always wanted to be a Mom, but never thought it would be under the circumstances I'm in now. I hope to get well and feel better not only for myself, but for my baby.
Thanks for reading my post.
