A person can get so depressed they can't even get themselves to look for a therapist.

[@opalbeauty1578]

Add children to the scenario and people are much less likely to seek help for fear of their child(ren) being taken away. This happened to a friend of mine-she sought treatment for herself and had to fight to keep her daughter. I'm not diagnosed for this fear. I'm waiting for him to be 18 and out of school. One more year to go. I've been depressed my whole life but the last year has been so bad. I can't wait to get away from my toxic husband and family.

[@LisaS1]

@@opalbeauty1578 I'm so sorry. You are welcome to talk to me if you like. That's terrible what happened to your friend; they should of helped her, not added to her pain and troubles. Something sort of similar happened to me when I was much younger and I told my kids teacher that I was troubled or depressed or something and the next thing I knew she'd called the children and family services on me and they came to my home to investigate. I've also been depressed my entire life.

[@serious_in_seattle6917]

I agree. Most of the professionals I’ve seen over the years were terrible. They seemed not fully competent. The one I saw in high school was an outright fraud. I would listen to him talk the entire time about his college friends and other things. As a kid I was nervous to report it to my parents or others. Others I saw just didn’t seem to care or try to lead me towards recovery. We would talk in circles and I needed actionable feedback that I could work on. But I’ve had a couple who were pretty good. They were younger and committed to trying to lead me towards recovery by exploring things that had previously provided relief or escape from the depression. I wish that I could see them again.

I used to feel all these signs in the month of December in 2019. I knew that something was wrong with my body and mind but I didn't want to see a psychiatrist because I was afraid that I will end up being addicted to anti depressants. I was also afraid that what would my parent's reaction will be. I tried to self diagnosis myself by watching vids like how to heal depression naturally. I started eating healthy, stopped binge eating, tried working out just like I used to do before December and staying hydrated. I don't that whether my illness is completely cured or not but I still face self abusive stress in which I end up feeling restless, guilty and fatigued just like I used to feel in December. I would be very grateful if pysch2go will see this comment and will reply me. I request you all to like it as much as you can so that it reaches to pysch2go easily.

Attempted suicide twice and still have trouble to this day. I cried during this video because it reminded me how much I’ve overcome and how good I’m doing now.

[@b.b.9561]

I dealt with depression since I was around 12 and experienced a depressive episode about twice a year. Each episode lasted on average about 2-3 months. I reached out to my father about 13 years old but was told it was a phase and that I shouldn’t be sad because my life is so “great.” After that, I felt guilt for feeling this way and kept it to myself. Then about 15, I dealt with a lot of suicidal thoughts then reached out to my father again and he agreed to get professional help. After an assessment by professionals, they admitted me into a mental hospital. I was diagnosed was MDD, general anxiety, and an eating disorder. I felt so relieved after the diagnosis because I had convinced myself that I was just complaining about nothing and felt out of my mind. Thank you so much for this video!! I hope it brings more awareness.

[@retaliationeffort2864]

I was diagnosed young with depression and adhd. I've developed sleeping problems with both insomnia with the rare occasion of hypersomnia. I've had constant fluctuation of weight due to random times of binge eating and starvation due to a lack of hunger. I'm still feeling guilty for something I did 5 years ago and I was forgiven. The constant thought of suicide has turned to white noise at this point. A simple sad moment in a TV show can bring on an episode and they tend to hold on for weeks at a time with very little reprieve. I was happy for 1 day in the past half a year from what I can remember. Never feeling good enough has caused me to feel as though I'm worthless. I'm quiet most of the time not only because it was drilled into me that I talk to much but also so I don't accidentally overshare and worry people. I've never had an easy time with making friends and it's gotten to be to easy to put on a mask to hide the pain. I'm normally in a state of numbness while in the presence of others and extreme levels of depression while alone with my thoughts. It's gotten worse and worse and I don't want to take medication for it but I may end up having to just to live normally. I'm not sure of anything anymore. Life is getting harder to handle by the day and the voice in my head saying to end it just keeps getting louder. I just ignore it. I'm in agony at all times and have grown so used to it that even when I'm just slightly happy I seem overjoyed. I've gone numb to the pain to the point of barely being able to cry. When I do cry I feel better cause it's a release but it's like my body refuses to let me do so. I'm subconsciously causing myself harm because I just can't let go. I'm scared.

I don't know which moment it was, I can't fully remember the very day.. But it was like somehow I woke up drifting under a durable ice sheet, in a numbingly cold yet barely moving arctic lake. Alone, able to see the world above the ice.. but not even remotely apart of it. For a long time the freezing water and lack of air made me wish I could just die, but I never did.. I just kept drifting along, impervious to dying or drowning but aware of the very sensation of it. I'm not sure how I survived, but I surely wished I hadn't or was at least able to drown.. not just yearn for it. Someone shivering & lost on the surface stumbled upon me, saw me slowly dragging under the ice... It didn't take long for them to attempt to break the ice, in hopes to pull me out.. but instead their efforts left their hands badly bruised, & mind forever altered.. I drifted away physically from their aid.. whilst I never fully left their memory. Bruises fade, but the burning reaction of the ice they fought to free me from.. left frostbite on their thoughts. Similar to chills racing all over one's body out of seemingly nowhere.. is their memory of me a trigger, covering their body in icy disdain. I couldn't sense anything but the pricking waters constricting, and feeding on my energies. My thoughts weighing, knowing that first rescue attempt was love.. who must have hated me so much for being under the ice to begin with..i sympathized, hating me for being there just as much too. I was confined horizontal for years, growing stiff & increasingly unreachable.. although every once in awhile a few others attempted to free me.. only ending with them bruised & emotionally affected by frostbite too, never able to forget how much they hated me for this helpless experience..my self-hatred in turn only thickening the ice-wall above me.. Soon I started to realize more people would just keep trying to help set me free, I couldn't have that continue on regardless if I needed out.. so I came up with a plan, I used every ounce of energy and strength I had left to swim.. willing my numb & tingling body as far below the surface as I possibly could, out of the sight of anyone crossing by..the lost & shivering traveling about on top of the ice above. It worked flawlessly.. I knew I shouldn't be viewed from the outside world, but I also found that their were others who had the very same idea I had.. It was like a soundless floating museum of painfully cold bodies in assortment, all of us just trying to avoid bruising anyone who may have stumbled upon us. I live here now, we all do.. Best part about it is no one knows we're even here, or can see we're permanently shades of purplish-blue, like our bruised lover's hands ... After what I've witnessed at the surface, I'm sure I don't care to see anyone else beat & smash their hands on ice for rescue.. not even if it meant a possible chance at having a dry warm life with them. Sometimes being happy doesn't mean you get to leave the frigid water, freed from life under thickening ice.. sometimes it means being composed & comforted, finding beauty in giving others peace & tranquility..contented you won't be the cause of someone's emotional frostbite. There's something happy about that kind of freedom, something happy about simply letting go. Now knowing you aren't alone, down at the base-level of major depression in it's bone-chilling cold. I smile down here instead of longing for out, even though I'm far from thick-skinned.. there's a silent current of solidarity among us. We never speak, but know each other's kindness & mercy well. I smile to myself down here, really we all seem to.. gone from anyone's gaze, this is our fortress of solitude. "Accepting our lives with true serenity, brings honor via altruistic compassion for others unlike us". What it's like (for me) to live with major depression.

Suicidal ideation is much more than feeling "overwhelming torture and isolation that the only way to stop the pain is to end the life living it." It's terrifying when you're awash in this sea of utter despair, and the only thing that makes you feel even a little bit better is when your brain tells you "It's okay. Just let go." Kudos to anyone that has gone their entire life never feeling suicidal. Seriously... good for you. But unless you have stood at the edge of the abyss and stared into that darkness, you can never truly relate. It is such a different feeling than anything else a person feels throughout their lifetime. It's also impossible to describe. You either know it or you don't. If you have never felt it, please due your loved one a favor and do not tell them you "know how they feel". You don't. You can't. And hopefully you never will.

MDD is real...I was diagnosed with this 2 years ago after not knowing what was going on with me.

I honestly have no idea where it came from, but I know it's genetic in my family. I've tried 4 different meds, a couple which made me feel worse. A couple of months ago I ended up dropping out of college because I just couldn't handle anything anymore or keep up with simple household chores. I am on Fluoxetine now and I think it's helping, but I'm also exercising more. I honestly think this is the key to recovery! I still have my bad days, but I'm trying my best everyday to get through this mental disorder...it's not fun at all.

If you don't want to tell her, it's OK. Tell SOMEONE THOUGH. It happened to me and it's happened to a lot of other people, and the person who did that will probably do it again to someone. It's absolutely NOT YOUR FAULT and you don't deserve to be the one in paralyzing pain for it. You'll find that it's happened to A LOT of people, and they didn't start getting or feeling better until they told someone.

It feels as if I am on a rollercoaster with MDD. One minute I'm managing and the next feels like it's off the rails. Add that with generalized anxiety disorder and mild social anxiety and I'm just losing my mind every step of the way. If someone just talks to me the wrong way, it becomes a domino effect.

I have been diagnosed with all three as well, and it's crazy making. The whiplash going from the lows of either apathy or sadness to the instability and "highs" of worry, fear, or restlessness is tiring. I try to isolate whenever possible because it's easier than worrying about which social interaction is going to push me over the edge and into the catastrophizing, paranoia, and other cognitive distortions. It also doesn't help that I can't shake this persistent thought that I'm faking it all for attention or to gain the sympathy of others.. and the days where things seem more manageable make me feel like an imposter

[@sortuhjusthere6328]

@@cminus6716 yes. I cannot stand that feeling. It's like I know this is real. Everything I feel is real but why can't I shake the feel like it's all fake

Well I have MDD.. but when she said about feeling empty I can relate so much but, something that always makes me feel a little better is watching anime and watching bts memes :') other than that I just always feel down and drained when I get up. Most of the time I stress & feel depressed because my family has a toxic relationship with me.And I always think its my fault I don't have my dad or I blame myself for his death... Ugh I'm sorry I just had to let all of that out and vent:(

I don’t understand what you are going through, but I’m positive your father is very proud of you. I hope you get help and feel better, soon. 💜

You should never feel like you need to apologize for letting your emotions, thoughts, and feelings out. It is good and healthy and everyone should have the opportunity to. I acknowledge some people can be emotional in a bad way, like by abusing others with their anger, but you get what I am trying to say right? If no one is there for you in person, random strangers in the KZbin comment section are! I have not been diagnosed but I think I have MDD too, my family can be rough sometimes, but maybe not as bad as yours. We can talk if you want. :)

[@kyliehernandez3851]

@@aubriethegreat8175 thank you :)..I'm not a very optimistic person but I always try to see if there is hope in curtain situations... many times I've asked myself wether I'm worth something or I'm just nothing, I've convinced myself many times to try and be a happy positive person but, it's just really hard...change for me is scary and it gives me anxiety, but I try and cope with myself trying and trying... honestly the only thing that changes my mood to optimistic alot of time is drawing, watching anime, and hearing music other that i just feel depressed and out of any energy to do anything :')

I’ve been diagnosed with major depression and can confirm these ARE the most common symptoms, there may be abnormalities but even if you’re having one of these symptoms I would still get checked out.

[@aaravrathod1844]

I have all the signs. Sadly I have no one to understand that

[@Collin212]

I have both insomnia and hypersomnia. If I get in bed at 8 planning to wake up at 9, I'll spend an hour trying to sleep and when I wake up I'm tired and will waste an hour in bed

[@Average_NPC_Viewer]

As someone who relates to point 1,2,5,6 and 7 ,i have another problem. My depression isn't just lasting 14 days ,it's lasting around 5 years and i can't simply talk to someone ,because my 10 years of not wanted social isolation took every confidence with others, i had left, away

[@user-bv5sq9dy7w]

Just meditate... just do yoga.... I sleep for 12 hours and still can’t get up if my life depended on it...
