My names Tom Maher and I have been a sufferer of depression for many years. I tried and failed to overcome it numerous times with tablets and different forms of medication and nothing helped. I wanted to try therapy earlier but I was scared. I was losing friends rapidly by pushing them away and couldn't afford to cancel plans to 'go to a weird meeting'.
I was surrounded in friends and have never felt more alone. I can't understand why I felt like I did. I was convinced everything was my fault, I was a failure of a person who didn't deserve to live.
It started when I got my first girlfriend Amy. I knew she was a lose cannon and hard to control but that's what I loved about her. I thought we were compatible. Soon my family and close friendship group were becoming more and more aware that I was.
