Depression is living in past and anxiety is living in future. So live in now. ( Btw I'm also suffering)
At least he is handsome, have people who care for him and no money issues. I Wonder why i did to deserve this life... Not only im not privileged ay nothing but add depression... Dang...
I've lived with manic depressive disorder for most of my life. Somehow, against all odds I have a wife that loves me and keeps me centered as much as she can. When I have my low periods she shows me love but gives me just the right amount of space. During my manic period, things become so unpredictable. Somehow she puts up with it. Somedays I just want to end it all, and at moments I've tried. Somedays my cat loves on me the right way and I want more life. I hate being this way. I fear my wife resents me.
I just posted a comment, but ill say it again in my words "having depression is like being in a prison with no walls no guards, but being trapped and isolated there, like there is a veil holdinf you there in the darkness, you can see people smiling and enjoying life having love and relationships , and not being able to leave" lots of people dont understand and say its in our head, but unless youve lived through it or are living through it, they can never truly understand how it feels. Dont dismiss someones problems as untrue , please do some research and educate yourself on it, telling someone "its all in your head,just be happy" you are wasting your breath and possibly will make us never want to talk to you again, peiple like that make me feel even more lonely and isolated
I love yall, please dont give up hope, i made a promise to myself to never go out by my own hands, my dad has bipolar and he has tried to kill himself a few times, my ex used to threaten suicide on me , so much pain that comes with mental illness and depression, i struggle with depression, my mom basically forced me to go aleast try and get help, im taking medicine now but, its still hard , there is different levels of depression, a spectrum if you will, you can feel it worsening or getting better, its called a depression relapse for a reason, much like drugs your hard work can take a turn, and you can fall back into it, to explain it to someone who doesnt understand in my own words "having depression, is like being locked in a prison with no walls, no guards , just open , and youre free to come and go, but youre stuck there in the isolation, and cant move, its like a veil" you see people on the outside happy living life, and then you look in youre head and jusg wish it would go away, anyone that reads this, please stay and fight, im begging yall, we need to support eachother and lift eachother up, sometimes a simple act of love or kindness can help peiplw like us, or even potentially save their life, be kind, that person you were either nice or mean to could gi home to depression and god knows what theyll do, sometime a simple act of kindness is a life line, depression can feel different for people too, like i said different spectrums of it, sometimes its hard to open up to people for fear of being called crazy or its "all in our head" avoid those people, for they can never understand unless the live through it, i hope me saying all this helps someone to understand it or atleast have some compassion, depression doesnt discriminate, much like the sea, dont matrer if youre rich or poor or born in a nice area, none of that matters when you are just trying to survive this shit, im trying so hard to get my life back, and its not just take a pill and it goes away, it takes ALOT of strength,will power, and hope to get out of it, it is literally hard work, and much harder for people like us than someone who has a happy normal mind, PLEASE dont dismiss our problems as not true. The saying walk in my shoes, is true as ever, its hard to explain to people cause rhey say im ungreatful, its not that, right now im just happy to wake up, i still smoke tobacco and pot , but plese be kind, you dont know what the next man or women is going through , i know this is a long comment but if anyone reads this, thank you and i hope i can make you understand ❤
Dad needs to put down the red wine
Creeps up on you and then sadness for however long it takes to get back up again
Grief and loss for myself has given me depression
Depression is, when you say no at the ending because you seen what will happen.
Also early stage of depression if you still try to play guitar or Sit in the bed to watch the clock. You will lie down so you dont feel any restrain on the body that acknowledges your existence.
true story
Whyyy does the actor look alot more like kurt Cobain
If you are not fine than act like you are not fine but don’t pretend to you are fine
First thought when I first seen His car was , why has he parked right on the corner like that😂 but then I remembered in America the roads are a lot bigger unlike our Lego land roads in the UK 😂 in all seriousness tho, my earlier life has been the same as this guys story to the point.
Haha really I didn't know 😂
spot on
this is beautiful
I had depression. Well i still have habits to get over and many of them are bad thought habits which can lead me back to that loveless outlook and feeling of emptyness. But thats all it is now- habits. Its no longer a part of my soul or who I am or what I want. And now I have purpose. This is an account of coming to Jesus. I am a Christian who was saved April this year and until that point, i hadnt felt the worst depths of depression. But it was building up and i always knew i just had more of a numbness to everything since being young. The feeling wasnt crushing but it was there, and my last 3 years of college starting with Covid really set me down that path badly. I am certainly fortunate it didnt go longer before coming to Christ this year, but i am here to say that God wants you to come to Him. Depression is demonic. It spells degradation and slow death of the soul and a hardening of your heart to love. That feeling like nothing is enough and like we can only feel something when we are doing drugs, on some big adrenaline rush, emotional high of the moment, drinking, engaging in lust, or when we feel like we just need life to go our way... ALL of this is wrong. All this effort to feel something or satisfy what seems unsatisfyable and well, living for yourself, is in the end selfish. This may sound like a hard truth to swallow, but what we need to accept, and what the WHOLE world ought to rightfully accept, depression or not, is that life is not about us. Its in fact about God. God is love. And not the way we may define it as "acceptance" or "validation" or "respect." All these things are a scramble and a lie in our efforts to make life about us. God is true love that is morally righteous, just, merciful, self sacrificial, and patient. The only problem is that by nature, we are not those things and dont do it naturally, and we live with a guilty conscience that knows what we've done wrong. Maybe a guilty conscience is part of what led you to depression. And you dont want to feel so much shame anymore and you do anything to escape it, thus hardening your heart. Or you feel trapped in it. Maybe guilt is the main thing that makes you want to live for what you'd cause for your loved ones as much as it also makes you want to condemn yourself and live in shame and self-hate. Many have also wronged us for sure and we have suffered. And it can be easy to just feel like the victim of this "joke" of a life. But im here to tell you that life is not a joke. Your soul is not a joke. Love is not a joke. You and those around you are real no matter how out of touch you feel. A relationship with God is life to the fullest because He takes our heart and our soul and restores it forever. He does the one thing every human needs but cant do for themselves which is He works from the inside out. He softens our heart and well, honestly causes us to be able to be human - to be human at its fullest is to be a human of love, and to love your God and savior who made you and this universe. But God has standards. He wants you to come to Him, but on His terms because His terms are righteous as much as they are merciful. He has not done a single wrong thing to us and in fact gave us His best in literally sacrificing His son Jesus, who willingly took our punishment for sin. And we have nothing to show or to return that would be sufficient. We have sinned and we dont deserve forgiveness, but it is freely offered to those who choose to give their life to Jesus. It took me a while to swallow this and to see just how deep my sin went because my heart was very much hardened to guilt and love and even forgiveness and I constantly tried to complicate sin or make excuses, but eventually it happened with the help of an amazing church. After i professed faith, i no longer wanted to sin or live for myself or satisfy myself. My heart was changed to want to make God happy and to commit my life to service instead of looking to be served or for ways to "feel something." My friends, you dont need to "feel good feelings" in order to come to Jesus or even to do good. The feelings of humanness didnt instantly come to me, and still havent completely. I still find it hard to break out of sin and still have lots of selfish habits to undo, but i have purpose. A reason to improve these things and its because God has claimed my heart for His own, and before that He sacrificed His son to make it possible. Jesus took my sin instead of me. I couldnt live for any better purpose or find a greater king over my life even if i tried. To anyone who reads all this i thank you and hope its a blessing 🙌
And for any who don't think God is real or don't want Him to be real or hate Him, I can speak on that too. Its another discussion ofc.
Nothing says sadness like fingerless gloves
A woman caring about me? In my own head? What a load of crap, not realistic for me at least. Nothing keeping me around. Not for long. Nothing to strive, everyone sucks. Work just wants slaves. Government just want free money along with wars they wont fight themselves. Clocks ticking for me.
But no one can help. Even if you find someone that distracts you for a little while it'll all go wrong. That vast void never goes away and continues to grow. You don't understand why it won't stop. You feel yourself falling back inside and the relationship grows rocky. They end up not being able to handle your pain and they leave. You've failed again. There is something wrong with you. You cannot be fixed. You only spread your pain to others. There's no point. There's nothing. It's only pain
I've recently started therapy and medication only because my bf noticed a change. That's the only reason. What I don't see in the comments is how I feel. I've had depression all my I'm 52. It's gotten so bad now I don't want to leave my house. I drink and eat like shit. But...I like it. I like the suffering and don't wanna change. But I do. At times. I don't know how to get out of this cyclone
I am the same age and we share similar experiences i also dont go out anymore and i also have no friends or family to talk to. My sister hung herself 3 years ago and for some strange reason i feel happy for her as she spent most her life depressed too. You are right about it being like a cyclone, i never talk about it in comments in social media but i read yours and as i type this i cry. I wish i could give you a hug, take care.
Antidepressants tablets [depression ki dawa]cause erectile dysfunction Google the side effects of antidepressants antipsychotic drugs What are the consequences when patients come to know his erectile dysfunction problem is due to this antidepressants drugs Erectile dysfunction in hindi means napunsak namarad.
I've been suffering from depression for years now but not even once has a cute chick with big glasses shown up to sweeten the deal. Guess I'll stick with antidepressants and alcoholism.
It's not easy. When someone says they are fighting this thing...... It's hell in your cell My heart goes out to the ones we lost and to all fighters and to all who won the battle....... IT'S POSSIBLE!!!
This feels like a shallow representation of depression to me. This feels weak compared to what I've faced. Where's the desperation? Where's the mental anguish that overshadows physical pain? Where's the twisted hatred for yourself that makes you wanna suffer more? Sure, at the start I could fake being social, but after your first real suicide attempt there's just no more room left for it. All you can do is keep quiet and hide in your room. And hope you don't wake up the next morning. After surviving my third attempt my last slither of hope left to escape my miserable life disappeared, and the level of hopelessness you reach becomes indescribable. And with every failed attempt at your life a part of you dies. You realize there is no bottom, the darkness just becomes heavier and more suffocating.
Fucking FACTS!!!
There are things you want to ask, but you can't . When you've had depression before, and it comes back, you'll find you can't tell others about it again because you know they're SICK of hearing it . And you don't want to do therapy again, because you're FED UP with taking medicine and you don't want to blab your business to another therapist . Especially when your family and others are relieved they don't have to go through THAT again . I think Pink Floyd put it best : Comfortably Numb .
Am thinking that lady wanted it to happen Or maybe I have trust issues
Imagine you have old parents and you are one to be their walking stick upcoming days , everyday you sleep with a hope of being fine next morning but when your eyes open you are still stuck 😣🧠🫀
All i want is to be alone and the moment i am alone...i hate every second of it.
I live like this without the social interactions. There is no one . This video could be my suicide note .
The most annoying part of depression is people constantly telling you it will get better and not to lose hope. I'm currently on my last try and put my self in a clinic but it seems to not work so at the moment i only see one way out and i have a plan from A to Z. I guess i will not reach my next birthday. The sadest part probably is i could almost cry out of joy when i think it soon will be over. Some peopel can be helped, others have seen and expirienced to much. I hate humans, i hate this world, i hate our society and i regret to be a human. I gaze in the night sky and try to imagin how nice the ever lasting silence will be.
God that part with seeing the parents very little and refusing the wine on Sunday is so much me, it's crazy
Depression feels so horrible. It's so torturous to live like this. It's this deep, hurtful, sad feeling i keep feeling in my stomach.
I guess its time to go
No one cares. One day you stop feeling all together negative or positive. Then life goes on like a base line
Wow this is truly beautiful
Oh yeah thinking about what would happen when people discover it…. Yeah that has stopped me so many times
The film presents well the idea of being in one's head and not being able to focus on life here and now. Depression is often hidden. It's ok - they say. Underneath there is hopelesness and despair.
The film is well intended, but you can't show real despair in a short film. Depression is grim, makes people think of suicide, but it takes real despair, the feeling of hopelessness over a long period that brings on unbearable mental anguish. No short film could ever come close to showing what I went through.
Brilliant job! 🎥✨ So captivating and well-made! 🌟 How did you fund the production of this short film?
It's the best way someone can describe how mostly depression feels...this film describes it perfectly.. Now the only thing you have to do to truly understand it is to think of how it feels to be like that every day..
I don't feel sad anymore, I don't feel anything anymore, no joy, happiness, excitement, nothing! I am just existing as everyday goes by. I was even told am hard to read and my face is blank. I feel empty like am just temporarily occupying a body.
Idk what to Write But thinking about it For months and have Been Not Working For 3 years But i feeling so Bad For my Patents i Cant get a Job because of that and i dont Want anymore :(
Hi hope everything will become better , I'll pray for you ❤
@@KhaledDakour-uw2oe Ty very nice of you and i just got a Job a couple of days ago maybe its getting better now
@@dualburritos960 I'm happy to hear that 👍❤️
That guy looks like the actor from fifty shades of grey
And I'm on this video again. Well... shit.
bullshit.
Best way to avoid suicide and self-harm. Is to talk to people anyone it doesn't matter. Call a stranger if you have to. If they are negative just remember not everyone is positive so just keep seeking help
I don't think I'm gonna reach my 40's, I won't be able to bear 11 years more. The day my mother die will probably be the die I also will.
Some people aren’t lucky enough to have someone to comfort them.
Got to love youtube age restricting this...
Not relatable at all. Friends his age who care about him, family who sees his pain, fuck he's even handsome, the girl even sits down with him. Fuck i wish i had it as good as this guy
