As a kid, I was always depressed. There were moments where I was happy, enjoying myself, and no cares in the world, but when I would go home, the positive feelings would disappear.

@Chelle Bright Since it is a mind issue reach a state of equanimity where nothing disturbs you. For a relaxed life without anxiety sit on a chair, back and spine as erect as possible, hands on your lap with palms upwards, close your eyes and do nothing. Be still without moving and observe your incoming--outgoing breath and body sensations for around 10-20 minutes. Be as still as possible. Your breath is directly related to the mind causing anxiety. Plenty of thoughts will come but slowly negative thoughts will reduce. The mind is reprogrammed to reach equanimity. Do twice daily as per your convenience. Practice not over-reacting to any daily real life situations. Enjoy the above meditation without expectations and your life will transform. Make it a daily habit. Best wishes.

Probably what drives suicide in more cases than people realize. It's not so much the hopelessness, it's the society expecting that you can function like a normal human being, then your inner conscience torturing you half believing them, driving you into a spiral. Society has to shape up. Say it with me. Society has to shape up. They need to get their act together in terms of how they treat depressed people, and their lack of care is a moral abomination. They merely have power, not the moral high ground. Do not confuse the two.

@@snoozyq9576 I kind of want to maybe adjust what I said a bit, having gone through a bit of tremendous, perhaps nearly traumatic growth in the past couple of weeks. Society won't shape up in our lifetime, not to the degree that is ideal. But you have to learn to honestly forgive yourself for everything. And you also have to admit when something you did was less than ideal, and correct it. But, do it with love, only. If you find your conscience picking yourself apart with hatred, your conscience is out of line. You've internalized the critical voices of the past as your inner authority when that happens.

Clinical depression is an illness. It's not an attitude problem.It's not a choice. It's not an on/off switch. People just don't get that. People don't see it as a medical issue. They will never know what it's like until they go through it themselves.

Is it really possible to fix this or is that just something doctors say in order to prevent us from commiting suicide? I end up afraid of telling them the truth. Like.. If I tell them how I really feel.. I might get locked up. It sucks Maybe depression is natures way of weeding out the weak. Like in nature.. the strongest survive and the weak die off. It is just _"survival of the fittest mind"_ ..rather than the best food gatherer or best mate for procreation (like with animals). We live in a time when everyone gets to live regardless of our mental and physical capabilities. It wasn't like that for most of history. If you weren't mentally and physically strong just a few hundred years ago.. You wouldn't survive.

(insert: go to work, get more sleep, get a hobby, stop doing that thing, whatever), . It's simple!"_ To be fair, a lot of those things are simple, however regular tasks feel IMPOSSIBLE when I'm ALWAYS depressed lol.. I guess it's just hard for some people to put themselves in my shoes (or dont care to).. I don't know. Plus there is my age.. people's sympathy seems to diminish as my age increases lol. I guess they assume I should have it together or doing more by now? To be fair, I think people are just too busy to care all the time. Sadly, I can totally see why 30-40 yr old males are prime suicide statistics. I mean its just a fact, depressed people let their lives go to shit lol (Including me)...

But I prefer how I feel today a thousand times more than how I felt before. Only the idea of going back to that mental status scares me...

Sometimes I get zip from a counselor, sometimes I get a few words and exercises in relationships that are invaluable. Our mind fuc-ing tapes we play in our heads are not truths and serve o further deepen depression. What I like about counseling is that I intend to make it count. I don't hold back, because my mental health is too important to me. If I think they're not genuinely engaged with me, I tell them that. If the direction they're going isn't what I feel is really the issue, I say so. Challenge them to get real, they will.... I seen depression so severe in others that they stopped eating or drinking. It's something that has to be addressed, no matter how painful. I dread sessions because it's emotionally painful, but in the long run, I know it's necessary. It's a slow healing process. You don't get to this place quickly, coming out from under, takes time.

[@GS-cg3yn]

I have to disagree just a little here. You can have severe, treatment-resistant depression and still dress yourself, go to work (because you HAVE to for your family) and take care of others. I do this every single day. Despite having tried several SSRIs and 2.5 years of therapy, sometimes I just lay on the hardwood floor from the weight of severe depression. Or I will sit in front of the computer at work somewhat catatonic with tears running down my face, as if my face is just leaking water. Often I am unable to do regular things for myself, but I do them for my spouse and my boss. Yes, you absolutely CAN have severe, treatment-resistant depression and still perform to some degree.

I'm not going to have a family, don't want one anyway, I've gotten to the point that I don't value my own life even the tiniest bit, but for some reason here I still unfortunately am. I just keep going because I'm supposed to I guess. I'm not clinically depressed, it's not my brain chemistry. It's my actual steaming pile of shit life that makes me feel this way, and no way out.

[@okamishiro4967]

to those who are struggling i just wanted to say this to hopefully give someone some hope. i battled with severe depression and like you would know it was incredibly draining. i am in a much better place as of now because i put my ass to work every single day. things including healthy diet, exercising, showering regularly, hobbies(painting/gardening), putting down drugs/alc, and etc. those are healthy coping skills for when i'm angry, sad, or just out of my mind. this really made a huge difference. these aren't miracle workers or anything, but were necessary for me to survive. i started out small with one goal each day. some days ill have set backs, or some days are just shitty in particular. i, however, never gave up on myself because i had the hope and desperation that this isn't how my life needs to be. recovering from depression is FAR from easy, but totally POSSIBLE. as long as you are breathing there is hope for you. it all starts with you having the tiniest bit of hope for yourself to get better. nothing will change if you don't change your lifestyle. i never would've dreamed of a future for myself, but i made it happen. and i know you can too. expect hard days, setbacks, and internal wars with yourself. but there will be times when you realize life isn't so bad, and that could keep you going. as long as u have a pulse NEVER GIVE UP ON YOURSELF. it is not your fault that you're depressed, but it is your fault if you let the depression consume you and your life. if you haven't killed yourself then somewhere deep inside you, you haven't given up on yourself yet, and please cling to that as best as you can. if you want to change your life you need to change your lifestyle. and that's all up to YOU. i am rooting for you, stay brave :)

True severe depression is like living life in a dark, cold, deep it. You can see other people walking past, even glancing down every now and then, but getting on with their own lives. We hear them laugh, talk happily about the beautiful weather and flowers around them, but we don’t remember feeling happiness from every day things like that. At first and for a while, we may have fought hard to get ourselves out of this dark, deep hole by scraping our way up towards the light but after a while we begin to think we deserve to be there, its darkness and coldness becomes our familiar home. Severe depression is thinking everyday about “checking out” of this so-called life, but loving your children too much to do that to them. It’s a dreadful limbo we’re stuck in. Most times I just wish someone to bury me alive in this pit because despite all the medications, the meditations, CBT, etc, nothing works and I’m afraid I will be like this forever. It’s been on now for 15 years without a single remission. There’s no light ahead, only a dark road and I want to stop walking this well-tread path. That’s severe depression, in case you didn’t know.

Reasons why you should stay alive. 1. We would miss you. 2. It's not worth the regret. Either by yourself if you failed or just simply left scars, or the regret everyone else feels by not doing enough to help you. 3. It does get better. Believe it or not it will eventually get better. Sometimes you have to go through the storm to get to the rainbow. 4. There's so much you would miss out on doing. 5. There is always a reason to live. It might not be clear right now, but it is always there. 6. So many people care, and it would hurt them if you hurt yourself. 7. You ARE worth it. Don't let anyone, especially yourself, tell you otherwise. 8. You are amazing. 9. A time will come, once you've battled the toughest times of your life and are in ease once again, where you will be so glad that you decided to keep on living. You will emerge stronger from this all, and won't regret your choice to carry on with life. Because things always get better. 10. What about all the things you've always wanted to do? What about the things you've planned, but never got around to doing? You can't do them when you're dead. 11. I love you. Even if only one person loves you, that's still a reason to stay alive. 12. You won't be able to listen to music if you die. 13. Killing yourself is never worth it. You'll hurt both yourself and all the people you care about. 14. There are so many people that would miss you, including me. 15. You're preventing a future generation, YOUR KIDS, from even being born. 16. How do you think your family would feel? Would it improve their lives if you died? 17. You're gorgeous, amazing, and to someone you are perfect. 18. Think about your favourite music artist, you'll never hear their voice again... 19. You'll never have the feeling of walking into a warm building on a cold day 20. Listening to incredibly loud music 21. Being alive is just really good. 22. Not being alive is really bad. 23. Finding your soulmate. 24. Red pandas 25. Going to diners at three in the morning. 26. Really soft pillows. 27. Eating pizza in New York City. 28. Proving people wrong with your success. 29. Watching the jerks that doubted you fail at life. 30. Seeing someone trip over a garbage can. 31. Being able to help other people. 32. Bonfires. 33. Sitting on rooftops. 34. Seeing every single country in the world. 35. Going on roadtrips. 36. You might win the lottery someday. 37. Listening to music on a record player. 38. Going to the top of the Eiffel Tower. 39.

[@hannahloew5027]

Nature has made us in the worst shape and failed us: we are too conscious, to the point that we fear our death and its consequences, our needs are tremendous, whether in terms of food (compared to a mosquito which only needs few drops of blood per day, we need kilos of diversified food and water), sex and affection, and the list goes on and becomes exponential with our actual economical system which transforms simple desires to necessities. We are stuck between our natural necessities and our "higher self" possibilities (our god-like/symbolic side). The solution to all this mess is either to tranform ourselves into cyborgs (a microchip implanted in our head will give a sense of contentment with this horrendous nightmare that we are experiencing) or to stop our expansion either through philosphies like efilism or mass suicide/genocide with a painless method if possible.

i’m so glad someone finally brought this to light. I’ve always had severe depression since middle school, but it’s gotten much worse as I’ve gotten older. Traumatic Life situations and romantic interests have broken my heart. Romantic partners have affected me mainly due to their own mental issues affecting our interactions. They attack, I get triggered and life then turns to crap. Most people could cope with these things and bounce back, but I just can’t. I’m glad to hear that there is an alternative to the normal treatment of depression, because these SSRI’s can only do so much. At times they even crush your motivation. I’m gonna look into ECT, hopefully it’s easy enough to find an office that can give treatment for this.

[@donnanoe6736]

I have had major depressive disorder for most of my life. I have advanced degrees from very good universities. I worked until I was 45. I actually broke my back and have been medically retired since then. However, I attempted suicide after spine surgery and was in a psych hospital for seven weeks. I met another professor there who had ECT and forgot so much that he can no longer teach. I don't want to lose my education. I am on Cymbalta and have not had suicidal ideation in several years. I still do not leave my house but maybe six or seven times a year. I do not take care of myself like I should. But I get by.

Have tried a bunch of different medications. Been admitted for about 5 years all together. I used to be catatonic due to my depression and was released from the ward because "you're too sick to get better".

I dont want to commit suicide because I value my life and what it has to give, I'm only 18 and still have a long way ahead of me. I've been trying to ignore the things that cant be fixed by just playing video games and watching things like KZbin.

It's like kicking someones broken leg, when you tell them it isn't real, and still not believing them even when they scream in pain. And telling them that when you got kicked in your broken leg, you were stronger and braver than them, even though you never broke your leg.

When I had my first ever real depression, I would never wish it for anyone else to have. There's this hopelessness that despite the logical brain telling me of the positive things to think of, I still found them meaningless. There's this helplessness that made me, despite the logical brain fighting, unable to see anyone or anything that can help. I had to push myself hard to eat any because the brain again told me I had to. I didn't have suicidal ideation, thanked God, but I really prayed to God despite lil doubts. But, I held on to my faith even with the feelings of helplessness and hopelessnes. It is important to really educate ourselves with mental issues we may face. Thank you MedCircle.

It won't be long now until the great tribulation of 7 years starts (the last 7 years of the world as it is now, and Jesus will save His followers before the great tribulation starts ), all the signs of the times are pointing towards this, and Jesus is your only hope for salvation, so I'm begging you to ask God to open your eyes and to consider these words from God's Word carefully: "Jesus said , “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." (John 14:6) "...if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved. For the Scripture says, “Everyone who believes in him will not be put to shame.” For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all, bestowing his riches on all who call on him. For “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” (Romans 10:9-13) "But God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8) "Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, He was buried, He was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures" (1 Corinthians 15) For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. (Ephesians 2:8-9) Jesus Christ said : “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. (Matthew 11:28) Please watch this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iIHZmJumgJiirs0​ super interesting, especially for these times!!

I started drinking when I was 16. I would drink at parties, but I also started drinking alone because I was unhappy, and I was in a lot of emotional pain all the time. My mom was very aggressive when I was younger, and my brother hated her and so did I. He started hanging out with shady people, he started failing all his classes, he was never home, and my parents fought all the time. I also ran away several times. I was always trying to figure out a reason as to why I was here or what the purpose of life was. So, I started looking at different philosophies, religions, and beliefs. When I was 18 after I was hungover, I got on my knees and I prayed for the first time. I asked if God was real that he would show me he was real because I couldn’t take it anymore. I was crying when I prayed for this. At that moment I felt a presence come over me like a wind. It was barely noticeable, but it was unlike anything in my life I had experienced up until that point. I was surprised when I felt it and I remember saying “what was that?” after that experience I pretty much forgot what happened and kept partying, until my senior year when I got arrested. After my arrest, my parents lost all their trust in me and I was expelled from high school. I was told never to come back to my school. At that time, I felt afraid and hopeless. That’s when I started looking for God, and I prayed that he would reveal himself in my life and that he would give me signs. My prayers began getting answered so consistently that I couldn’t deny that God was doing something. It was mysterious and compelling. I ended up in Church and started reading the bible hours a day. I stopped hanging out with all my other friends because they were continually getting arrested. I was able to forgive my family and myself and to ask to be forgiven. I noticed how at Church people were judgmental and how they formed cliques but were afraid to be around anyone else different from them. It increased my faith because I realized Jesus was not like that and ever since I was young, I saw people as people regardless of who they were. After a while, it’s like I could see God's presence was in my life and then it felt like he wasn’t, and then he was, and then he wasn’t. One day I woke up and felt more depressed than I ever have in my entire life. I felt like I was dying on the inside. That night I prayed, and I said, God, I don’t see my life five years from now I'm going to die Jesus save me Lord, please save me. I was weeping when I said it and when I asked him to save me, I felt a presence inside of me like a heartbeat, and I felt it once like a pulse, and I said Lord please save me and I felt it again even stronger. It was like radiance. When I woke up the next morning, I had transformed everything felt brand new like I was a kid again. All my fears and all my racing thoughts everything was gone. I looked at my hands, and I said this can’t be real, it's impossible. When I looked at myself in the mirror, I saw a different person. I started praying, and the holy spirit became entirely real to me; it was washing over me and inside of me. It was total love and peace, and I heard a voice but not an audible one, it was an inner voice. It said I am with you; I love you, I will never leave you, it’s done it’s finished. That was May 3rd, 2009, and ever since then I’ve followed God, I have seen many things change and many things I know wouldn’t have changed without faith and belief. I know what it’s like to be lost to feel you have no hope. Don’t ever think you’re stuck, or life can’t change because it can. My mom is a Christian now, Its night and day. Some of the things that went away during that period were severe anxiety and my addiction to alcohol. I’ve seen and experienced so many things that are miraculous and seen how God has worked in my life. When we ask God to forgive us for what we’ve done and turn away from our sins and wrongdoings and we believe in Christ's sacrifice everything changes. His word says if we confess with our mouths that Jesus is Lord and believe in our hearts that he died and rose again we will have eternal life but not just life after death but abundant life in the present. Our sins are erased not only past, present, and future but our burdens and fears are lifted also. Our thoughts, our minds, our hearts, our souls are transformed and united with God and we know his spirit lives in us. If you seek, pray, and knock you will know JESUS IS KING!!! HE LIVES! “Come to me all you who are weary and burdened and I will give you rest” “Whoever drinks of the water I give them will never thirst again” kzbin.info/www/bejne/e4m0eId_o7WjkLc

[@Zoom_1012]

I think it takes a bit more to be considered “treatment resistant” then failing with only one SSRI or antidepressant medication. I’ve been depressive most of my adult life and am now on my 8th antidepressant. I believe to my knowledge you have to fail at 3 antidepressants to fall under “treatment resistant.”

[@Pellagrah]

IMO 'treatment resistant' is more an indication of how crude and ineffective these prescription antidepressants are, as well as how shallow our modern clinical understanding of depression is. I'm still holding out hope for success with conventional medications, but I've considered undergoing ketamine infusions as well as treatment with psilocybin. And reading through some Carl Jung has been infinitely more helpful than CBT or any modern psychotherapy I've tried.

[@bertwhite4574]

I hope nobody minds me sharing this here, but honestly having nobody to talk to about this, it gives me some comfort in putting it here and knowing people will understand it. I think especially when you’ve been depressed since childhood, normal life really is no option no more. The simplest things, you have no motivations. No motivation to go out, doing things you enjoy doing. I think making friends is impossible to me, I have the desire of having friends, but I am unable to reach out or keep in contact with people because more often then not I am not even able to reply to a text. Another thing to add to that is that I’ve been alone so much, I am not even comfortable around other people. Its this battle on my head of me wondering if I honestly rather spend time by myself or that I’m simple not able to be around other people anymore. I’m losing my train of thought and it’s been a bad day for me in general, worse then other days. I hope whoever is reading this finds comfort in knowing the pain we feel every single day, is shared and understood by others

A lot of days I’m functioning in a fog! Almost 25 years feeling this way. Cant barely do my work correctly everything is mediocre. Scared tell my employer why need a job. Find myself just feeling scatter brained. People talk to me sometimes just feel like going off. My group daughter is reason I’m still here don’t want her in the world alone. But boy some days wish I could sleep for years. My husband so full of energy I almost feel resentment towards him because he forces me to do things I don’t feel like doing all he thinks is I’m lazy.. I’ll look back on my life and what a waste how did I become this way? Why me?

[@NoyzRose492]

Blueface, do you know that Jesus is coming back soon? Are you ready? Today is the day of salvation, choose LIFE (Jesus) before it's too late. It won't be long now until the great tribulation of 7 years starts (the last 7 years of the world as it is now, and Jesus will save His followers before the great tribulation starts ), all the signs of the times are pointing towards this, and Jesus is your only hope for salvation, so I'm begging you to ask God to open your eyes and to consider these words from God's Word carefully: "Jesus said , “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." (John 14:6) "...if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved. For the Scripture says, “Everyone who believes in him will not be put to shame.” For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all, bestowing his riches on all who call on him. For “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” (Romans 10:9-13) "But God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8) "Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, He was buried, He was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures" (1 Corinthians 15) For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. (Ephesians 2:8-9) Jesus Christ said : “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. (Matthew 11:28) Please watch this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iIHZmJumgJiirs0​ super interesting, especially for these times!!

[@nicoler0072]

Depression destroys my life in every way possible. It takes over everything, engulfing and suffocating me. Some days I can cope and others I wish it could all be over. People say to talk about it but others tend not to understand, they don't know how to help and you often feel worse for sharing (lonelier and more aware of how much of a mess your life is). I have been trying to make something of my career for months and months but without success. I have worked so hard to finish my degree while working full time and coping with familial traumas along the way. It all feels like it has been for nothing because no one will give me a chance. Most of my friends are married and buying houses. I am alone, feeling empty. Will it ever be time to celebrate my life or will I always be on the sidelines for the achievements of others? Life is pain.

I've been diagnosed with major depressive disorder, depression is not something that can be fixed by simply going out with friends, praying and willing yourself to be better. I felt as if I was in gray world, devoid of color, without any will to do anything, without any hope for happiness, it's like the proverbial storm sans the silver lining. Though for some people like myself, have a facade, you tell can't that I'm depressed, it comes more for me with some physical manifestations and revealed thoughts and emotions to actually know I'm depressed. Been on an SNRI which helped, not fully but they say "partial remission".
