- When most of us think of depression, we often think of major depressive disorder (MDD), where depression symptoms occur in episodes ranging from weeks to months. However, did you know that depression can persist for longer periods of time, where symptoms last over the course of two or more years without any relief at all? Chronic depression is also known as persistent depressive disorder or PDD, and is defined by a continuous depressed mood that occurs for at least two years. In today’s video, we will address the signs and symptoms of chronic depression.
DISCLAIMER: This video is for educational purposes only and is not meant to be used for diagnostic purposes. If you believe that you may be suffering from persistent depressive disorder, we encourage you to seek help from mental health professionals
We also made a video on the signs you're depressed, not lazy: • 6 Signs You're Depress...

Psilocybin containing mushrooms saved my life. The drastically reduced my benzodiazepine withdrawal allowing me to quite illicit pill addiction after three years of heavy daily use before it would had became medically dangerous to quit. It has also helped me survive depression.
Psychedelic’s definitely have potential to deal with mental health symptoms like anxiety and depression, I would like to try them again but it’s just so hard to source out here
The Trips I've been having have really helped me a lot,I finally feel in control of my emotions and my future and things that used to be mundane to me now seem incredible and full of nuance on top of that I'm way less driven by my ego and I have alot more empathy as well
@@amyjordans5662 I was having this constant, unbearable anxiety because of university stress. Not until I came across dr.sporess, a very intelligent mycologist. He saved my life honestly
I am feeling the same way too. I put too much on my plate and it definitely affects my stress and anxiety levels. I am also glad to be a part of this community.
Tripping is not really bad but find a good mycologist Who will teach you the right things you need to know
Your commitment to spreading awareness and helping people with their emotions and disorders is so incredible. Sharing this one with friends 💜
Aww thank you so much for sharing :) This means a lot
i've been suffering from depression for about 12 years, which is kind of exhausting lol. Your channel is my safe place, i manage to understand myself more and more because of your videos. thank you for this.
Sorry to hear that. We're happy to hear that we're able to help in some way! Hang in there :) You got this!!
It has turned out to be unfortunate for me that I was placed to suffer under the boisterous reign of depression, which I have been plodding through for over 10 months as of today. Throughout these 10 long, bleak and thunderous months of persistent woe and struggle, I ceased to know what it is to experience happiness and joy in life; and I cannot but only fail to understand how one could frisk about in such spirit. Therewithal, I believe that I will never within this miserable life of mine come to achieve success in slaying this heavy-handed enemy.
@@solonada9602 i'm sure you will beat your depression, you deserve happiness. even if you can't see joy (because of the dark clouds in your sky), there will be a day you will smile looking back to your past, and be proud of you, proud of your courage, your strength and hope. be brave, mate. may love be with you
@@excripto1 thank you for existing, keep on fighting, your efforts will be rewarded
@@imogenlikesyou6164 you're just too strong for a person with depression over 12 years lol
I was diagnosed with chronic major depression since I was a child and I can say in my personal experience that medication (and therapy) saved my life. My doctors told me that my depression was most likely genetic considering I was showing signs since infancy which was very validating for me since my family blamed my chronic depression on being “ungrateful” for having a good life (which of course only added to my depression because I didn’t have a “legitimate” reason for feeling sad and hurt all the time). My antidepressants make me feel like when I wake up from a bad nightmare and I can remember the pain from my dream but it doesn’t hurt nearly as much as in the actual nightmare if that makes sense. So I am a huge advocate of medication, although I do understand the hesitation and fear of being dependent on drugs for the long term.
The thing that bothers me about the whole, “don’t get dependent on meds” is the no one would say that to a diabetic, you shouldn’t get dependent on insulin. It’s not helpful to say that to people who are suffering, they feel enough shame buying into the idea society pushes of “just get over it” medication can save lives, suicide is a real danger to chronically depressed people. I tried therapy for two years, it helped but like 15-20% better. With meds, it was like 80+% better within two weeks.
I'm still depressed even on the highest dose of SSRI which are a great fit (tried a lot of other things), but I agree that at least it's not as terrible as it would be without them. Sometimes I can even feel quite happy or content, without them I wouldn't be alive.
@@chosensomeonelse I can't tell anyone about it
Hey was the first thought in my mind “is that Shane from stardew?” I play it a lot during the summer cause I like a nice farm sim
But hopefully for everyone who is suffering find help and gets better like Shane did (after 6 hearts he gets a therapist and tries getting better)
Exactly what I thought. I don’t wanna dismiss the meaning of the video but ive been oh a stardew high
I THOUGHT THE EXACT SAME when I saw the thumbnail
I have grown up with depression episodes every year. I used to have traumatic events during childhood each year such as bullying, loss of loved ones and physical/psychological abuse+extreme neglect and emotional abandonment.
The big traumatic events stopped when I was a teenager but I had already developed depression and other disorders (social anxiety and agoraphobia)
Now I'm 20 years old, and I am struggling with CPTSD, dissociation and depression. I have a lot of borderline personality traits and what makes me feel the most deceived and frustrated is depression.
It never goes away completely, I am starting to believe that I won't ever experience life without depressive symptoms.
I was diagnosed with chronic depression many years ago. This video describes it very well. Having a persistent low mood everyday, experiencing episodes of more severe depression, low energy, everything feels like a big chore, my previous interests no longer make me feel good. I wake up most days feeling dread. The day ahead is like an uphill battle. My close friend keeps me going though.
Does it go away after a while or are you stuck with it?
@@mrbuffwoopmusic8788 I believe I am stuck with it. I was diagnosed 8 years ago, but I dealt with it longer than that. It fluctuates in intensity. Sometimes it's not too bad. Other times it's unbearable. But it's always there, like a dark cloud.
@@redrum86 I feel for you man, i wish you the very best 👍
@@mrbuffwoopmusic8788 thank you 😊
loved the video! and I love how you used shane from stardew valley to represent pdd, since his character is vent good representation for depression. stay safe everyone!!
Good catch :) Glad you like the reference!
Agree haha I was shocked to see Shane here
Don't forget Harvey's cameo!
Yeah shane was amazing on my first farm i just gave him gifts so he wouldnt sound grumpy at me then i saw his story and just cried a bit.
it made me so happy. i love that game.
These videos have been a real help to me lately, especially with everything that's been going on in my life, so thank you. ☺️
No problem :) We're glad to help!! Did you relate to these signs?
@@Psych2go I don't really feel comfortable about talking about my mental health online, if you know what I mean...srry
@@Charlie_E it's understable
Even if you avoid depression, it comes back to your life because you are not confident in any situation. In either way, we should help eachother to avoid depression / stress.
I personally have never been depressed just a bit down sometimes, but my mate has bad depression for quite along time and just wanted to know more. I hope good things come to anyone who suffers with depression ❤️ #PMA
I was diagnosed with Chronic Depression earlier this year and I think having a name to put to the emptiness I felt gave me a little relief despite it's prevalence.
I've been at varying levels of depression and anxiety for 30 years now... I am 43. No amount of medication or talk therapy helps. I have made myself comfortable with that fact and take medication to relieve the physical symptoms. A lot of these comments resonate with me, especially those stating they feel no join in joyous occasions. I fake it for everyone else. Life has become me wearing a mask living a big lie. My joy comes from bringing joy to others... even if my emotions in a circumstance aren't real.
I have been diagnosed with PDD recently. Thanks for making this video. It feels a bit better when there are people or organisations who are constantly trying to support and reach out.
Thanks for sharing. Hope you're getting better! Hang in there :)
You can actually get diagnosed with persistent depression?! My doctors /keep/ asking me when my last episode was. As if it's not been on going for years?
I've been struggling with chronic severe depression since 2005, many people don't know about this condition, thank you for making this video
This video needs shared with more people.
Agreed
Doing that now :)
How did you comment 2 weeks ago?

I suffered from chronic depression for about 12 years, it wasn’t until last year when I finally got diagnosed and got the medication I needed. It really is strange though, i truly can’t recall when my depression first began despite knowing why, it feels like it’s always been a part of my life. I’m glad that part of my life is over though and I’m thankful you are spreading awareness for this.
How long did it take for the medicine to start working??
@@one_piece1996 antidepressants will take up to 2 or more weeks to work ig
Do you mind sharing what you’re on? Also, how has it helped?
You guys dont know how much of a help you are of for people with bad mental health. Keep growing!! Never change!!
Thank you soooooooo much for this. I've been experiencing a lingering sense of depression for over 10 years, but because it wasnt MDD I just carried on without getting help. Now I know that there's a name for what I feel. Thank you.
I’ve had PDD since early childhood and I struggle daily with the challenges it brings.
I really appreciate your videos. They shine a light on mental health issues I probably wouldn’t have the courage to question on my own.
I love your channel, and everyone in the comment sections.
Then what to do ? I also have that from childhood
As someone diagnosed with chronic depression, I can say your videos help tremendously in that I can learn more about myself and my condition. Also I recently started playing Stardew Valley and love it so I appreciate the reference how it matches with the subject matter
Your videos have helped me so much since I found out I had depression. Thank you and I wish all of you with depression or any other mental illness to get well soon!
thank you for sharing, and contributing to improving mental health awareness. the animations and voiceovers are fantastic!🙂
I've been to many professional psychologist, but even the feeling of knowing what to do to make everything work is just temporary
I always love coming back to these videos to help improve my understanding of the disorders I struggle from and the potential causes. Thank you psych mommy
Oh yes. I won't forget how I used to feel. Chronic Depression has become a Smiling Depression. But I still take medication and needs therapy, and retains some symptoms of the Chronic one.
Depression is a handicap, when it comes with other stuff like anxiety, and strong lack of confidence. I still can't believe that as of today, I allow myself to tell "I trust in me because I know I will get what I wish to get, because I believe in me. I am good. I deserve happiness, and if I wish it, I will have it. Because I'm a good person." whereas in the past, it used to be "I don't deserve anything. Who would be interested in someone who can't work right now anyway? Who wasn't born rich? Who is too excentric with his clothes to be considered as "attracting"? Who don't want to have six-packs?".
It's so weird how many of my thoughts took a 180° spin. I still am dealing with past traumas and can be sad about things, I strongly have anxiety(thus why it's a handicap), but I am glad that the Chronic Depression I got has become a Smiling Depression, with who I can at least live, and enjoy life, even if it is not easy everyday.
And I wish so much that anyone who reads this comment and has Chronic Depression will realise that they have the power, the will, the light in thesmelves to bring out the sun that is hidden by those clouds of Chronic Depression. I wish it with all my heart. Peace to you, and love.
OMGGG ITS SHANE, I LOVE HIM SMM
But omg, thank you sm for making this video, really love you guys
All of them. That's my life. I feel like me is in here somewhere, I'm just not allowed out. Much love to everyone out there dealing with this, you're not alone. And thank you psych2go, for explaining this stuff in a way that everyone else can understand. It adds a little understanding and kindness to the world, and we all need that.
I feel like I have it. I match all the symptoms. I've felt like tis for over a year. Everybody asks if I'm okay because I'm so pessimistic, obviously tired, and everybody sees through my fake smile. They say I'm also depressive and bad to be around because my negativity spreads.
I can't remember exactly when it started. I think a year ago. All i know is that I wake up and hate myself. And it feels like I've been doing that for all of my life, even when I know I haven't.
Everyday *is* a bad day. I wake up, and, no matter how hard I try to comfort myself, it distorts. "You're beautiful" becoms "They're saying you're beautiful because of how goddamn ugly you are." "you're funny!" becomes "You're so stupid that you're funny." "You're comforing to be around" becomes "I forget about my problems because you always push yours onto mine. Go get a therapist."
I'm always, always, so tired. No energy. Never getting out of bed unless I have to. Binge-watching videos because I don't feel like I'm worth dog something else. Waiting to feel something that isn't numbness or tiredness. I consitantly feel like it's *my* fault I'm like this. My fault I'm just so lazy and not bothered to get up because I stay up alnight, having mental breakdown after mental breakdown. Anything, even if it's just washing my face or even just saying 'good morning' constantly feels like it's too much for me. I just want to lay in bed. I don't want to wake up anymore.
I'm sorry your feeling this way.
@@xavierxlp301 It's fine. People probaly have it worse
Its same like mine experience dear..don't worry friend 😊
@@leyapriya9323 Thank you :)
I love these videos! They helped so many people! Including me!
While
I don’t have depression I do have adhd which is very hard for me to control my feelings and emotions
I notice that Shane from Stardew valley he related to this video cause his event has some depression/anxiety issue,I love him. Nice video btw!
respectively i appreciate the shane rep my mans needs the love
1. You have a depressive personality.
2. You have barely any relief from symptoms of depression.
3. You have a hard time remembering when your depression began.
4. Everyday feels like a bad day.
5. You feel exhausted all the time, no matter how little or how much sleep you get.
Thank you so much for these videos, they are so helpful.
Love how you used Shane from Stardew Valley for this video. Perfect fit. 👌
I think I saw Harvey in there too
Glad you like the reference :)
I know this is a serious topic but I cannot get over the Stardew Valley reference. My boys Shane and Harvey omg
Nothing I do ever feels like it’s enough…
I'm not in chronic yet but I can feel myself going this way. I always try to make it 'better' by myself once in awhile without any professional help so it's not consistent and honestly it didn't work out at all. But I can only do this way.
Thanks for the video for making us more aware with our patterns and for letting us know that we are not alone in this one.
Your videos really do soothe me..
infact I have I have started projecting your videos when I take classes of Adolescence Education Programme in Secondary and Senior Secondary Classes..
And you know.. children love watching your videos and giggle at the animations.
I have PDD but I didn’t know it was called chronic depression. This helped me a lot thanks
Very useful information! :)
Thanks :) Glad to hear that!!
I have been following your channel for sometimes due to my issues and today's episode just exactly what I have been experiencing past for few years which made my life stuck at a point from where I don't how can I get out.
I don't need attention from me but i clicked on this video
Thank you so much for spreading awareness about things like this that don’t get talked about In school. Sending love ❤️❤️
No problem!! Thank you so much for your support! Did you relate to this video?
@@Psych2go I do to a certain extent but luckily I’ve never felt that bad for too long. I hope the very best for those who do have pdd
Good vid for a serious topic given with compassion. I love the cereal ♥️
the main reason i screamed out of excitement for this is
1. I havent watched these in forever and NEED these
2. IS THAT THE BELOVED SHANE FROM STARDEW VALLEY ON THE THUMBNAIL????
Remarkable person reading this.. It’s going to get better; all it is a season of opportunity to grow and be better than before. Challenging times are meant to strengthen us, not to break us. Success doesn’t define to what happened to us; it is how we choose to deal with our circumstances. The more you grow and develop as an incredible person as you are, the more things will change for the better. Forgive more (for you), be grateful for even the smallest things (we have it way better than someone else), choose love over ego, choose humility over ego (humility is strength), and finally, invest into new skills so that your future self will thank you. Our lives will change forever the more we grow. Be thankful for the challenges for we know something greater is coming. Love you always - Nathalie ✨❤️

I definitely agreed to have the same symptoms, but now I wonder if PPD and High functioning depression are the same thing. im currently on the spectrum of depression of not knowing exactly how deep my mental illness is yet I've felt this way for about 12 years.
this is my fave channell ! thank you for this videos ♡
No problem :) Did you relate to this video?
you posted it at the right moment, thanks 😅
A big THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart 💖💖
Aww no worries :) Did you resonate with any of these signs?
@@Psych2go Actually almost all 😞
I hope everyone will get through their depression very soon
A well made video, good job it helped a lot. My psychologist fear that I may have endogenous depression that she said that could be ''inherited'', all of my family members that are related to my father have or had depression problems and I'm not any different, one of the major symptoms of this is feeling fatigued and unprodoctive, and most of the days are like they don't even exist, like I'm part of some video-game and I can't fully enjoy majority of the lovely things in life. And I didn't exacly had a calm life, I was bullied when younger, people used me, and some other things... So I thought, and everyone else as well, that my depression was due to these situations, but when I recovered from this situations it felt like nothing changed, I acknowledge the importance of tanking care of myself but sometimes feels like an impossible mission because I feel fatigued, and then comes the guilt, and I should find a work as well, but then again I feel like I can't, or the attempts that I made didn't make any difference because I wasn't trying hard enough... This feeling are making my life a complet hell to deal with, so... I spend the majority of my day in the computer to forget my reality, or I read something I like, play an instrument like the Violin (that I'm learning) or the piano. I try not to face this because it exausts me. But I'm seeking help with my psychologist and I feel like everything will be fine eventually, one day... But I think is a good idea to talk about endogenous depression, it's not a common topic in my opinion because majority of people don't believe in me when I talk about this, they say it's something foul, or that I need to try harder, but that are some people that still believe in me at least like my mother, one of my aunts (that have this very same issue as me, she's the sister of my father), my father, my boyfriend and some close friends. I feel that I'm not going through this alone, but some things that I have to face... No one will be able to help me face it, they can say what I can do or not do, but it's my fight not their's. Sorry for the long vent, but I hope you see this one day, I really love your videos and the way you speak about these sesensitive subjects, and I would love to see a video about this topic I talked about. Take care and once more thank you for the awesome video!
Did not expect to wander through on the new upload and suddenly see SDV's Shane throughout the vid xD
I can tell you when my seasonal depression first triggered, but I still have problems trying to pinpoint when my depression actually began, especially with how I used to just grin and bare stuff as a teenager, I was probably just brushing it all under a rug for a long time because it was so normal...
I've been taking medication for depression now for about 4 years just so I can actually attempt to face each day. Winter is the worst though with the added SAD
I've had depression for around 5 years now and knowing your spreading awareness makes me happy thank you
If you're suffering with this just know that you're not alone and it's not your fault, but you do have the power to make your life better, and that's a path worth following 💛
I’ve been dealing with depression for 2 years now since I turned 30. I have a lot of things wrong with me. I can’t seem to get out of bed earlier than 12pm, I can’t focus on simple tasks anymore. I used to love going to the gym and made it my first priority everyday and now I have to force my self to go. I just wanna snap out of it but it’s becoming extremely hard and stressful. Worst part is that it’s taking away from my youth I’m gonna be 32 soon and I haven’t made any moves in any direction since turning 30 almost like if I’m stuck. My parents are worried and they have every right to be but they don’t know what to do to help. I wish it would end. I have a lot of things to be grateful for but so much more I have to accomplish and I don’t know how to keep going. Best of luck to everyone dealing with this disorder.
You have helped me a lot. I regularly watch your videos. I have been struggling with this depression for a year!,but i can't fix my condition at all
Is this supposed to be unlisted? Just wanted ask
Yea, i also Wonder that
Same
Same
maybe there was an error they needed to fix? who knows.
Not anymore!
I can relate to this. Been battling for years
Thanks for sharing and sorry to hear :( How are you coping so far?
I didn't realise how much I needed to hear this video
This channel is gold.
Chronic Depression is something that once you get it, it will stay with you for the rest of your life. Just when you think it's over, it returns with a vengeance. And that itself is extremely dangerous.
True.
These videos are great. They always help me out. Thank you Psych2go!!
No problem :) We are happy to help. Do these points apply to you?
Sometimes
I just have a roller coaster of emotions ALL the time
No problem :) Glad this helped. Did you relate to the video?
@@Psych2go My friend has severe depression and may attempt suicide soon, I’m unsure if they’ve already tried at this point, but please let us know how to get a doctor to help them. They really need this
What I experienced before:
-work
-art
-exercise routine
-studied languages
-did daily routine effortlessly
-always energized, filled with emotions
-still felt incomplete
As soon as I applied to med school:
-work
-emotionally numb
-poker face
-“what’s excitement or anger?”
-physical illness
-weight gain
-unrealistic perfectionism
-forgot how to draw
-if someone yelled, it didn’t phase me (I guess that’s a positive side of it)
-feeling useless
-doing simple tasks feel utterly hard.
3:29 those energy batteries…a perfect description of a daily life! Slowly charging, quickly draining.
Having any symptoms is an alert to seek service, I'm very thankful, as I have in the past. I'm looking to better communication that I'm doing better or worse today.
I feel like this is me... also shane! His story really hit me, even though im not an alcoholic. Its just so much and idk how long this has been but my therapist is trying to stop ig before she can diagnose it
Shane is one of my two main romance choices in SdV
If you want to get rid of depression just become a chill badass and learn to enjoy alone learn to not care and take care of yourself and believe in yourself and remember if something about how you talk or the way you look or things you like makes you feel insecure or crazy remember to feel happy the way you are cause I think that's the worst feeling ever you should be happy and confident about your personality.
Been feeling like this since I was 15, now I'm 23, at least I wasn't completely alone, until recently, now I have nobody, just me and my empty lonely life, guess it was always meant to be this way for me, I don't wish my fate to anybody, in fact, my desire is that anyone that struggles with this finds peace and happiness, I really do, because you deserve to be happy ❤️

I've been dealing with depression for around 10 years now. Gone through really bad spots but with help of medication and changes in my life I feel overall better though there's still bad days. My doctor believes it's hereditary in my case unfortunately
Almost everything fits. And even when I am fighting hard with the point mentioned here as 4, not always I can win and even if, not for the whole day. That endless feeling of feeling guilty or helpless for not recovering since summer 2018 after I ended a long and important relationship because the person became toxic for me. But it is only one episode. Earlier in September 2015 i got a big hit after not being able to find a job at the seaside in one city where I wanted to move because no matter how I tried ny level of education was always not enough for eventual bosses. AND since beginning of 2016 I got new health problems which are limiting me in adult life much. I mean I am not handicapped in the way others are... but I have annoying health problems, which last a lot shorter in case of other people. One of them is the dry eye syndrome after a VERY year and a half of big illness of my eyes where I had to use antibiotics. Even when I get a bit cold it lasts for many weeks in stead of days... Meanwhile my relations with people became worse. Seeing me depressed made others angry and mean on me even when I was o na doctor's visit or in other places around ppl who weren't knowing me. All that made me not wanting to meet anyone new because it always ends with disappointment and other bad feels in me. If someone here had similar problems? If yes, how you guys recovered??
i have recurrent MDD, which can be confused with PDD. the main difference that I've noticed is that, while depressive episodes can last a long time (months, sometimes up to a year+), they're just that: episodes. they feel like they last forever, but they don't. people suffering from PDD don't get that relief of climbing out of a low episode, my episodes are their normal. that also makes figuring out you have PDD so difficult, because it's your normal.
Personally I feel so scared when there is a moment of happiness because I feel I don’t deserve it. Like it doesn’t feel real. This video helps to understand some of what is going on.
I know that my depression roughly started at the age of 8-10.
At got more and more severe until suicidal thoughts are the norm for me.
No, I'm not currently in active danger, but these thoughts decide things for me. "Why should you do something, when you die, it won'T matter at all".
I have bad depression
Please help my friend

The cartoon guy with the blue sweater and green undershirt is Shane from stardew valley 🥺 His story is really sad and heartbreaking and I hope anyone won't reach level of depression because no one deserves to be sad and hopeless. 🥺❤️
Idk if this things Im experiencing for the past 5 years is just stress and anxiety , maybe this is depression or chronic depression. Im afraid to open up my problems with my family or friends Im carrying this problem all by myself for the past years. Everyday I feel sad , very unproductive and I think a lot when awake and when I try to sleep to relax my brain , it got even more worse when I close my eyes , thats why I sleep 2-5 hours a day , and during meal time I feel sick

Love Stardew valley! Shane is the best bachelorette no cap.
I decided to watch this on a whim, and I've known I've had depression for a while now, just seemingly mild and I have been able to handle it alright. Honestly, I figured I had some form of chronic depression.
I can't remember when I started feeling like this, it feels as though this is the default emotion for everyone even though I know that's not the case, it's so hard for me to do the simplest of things without being extremely drained and tired. I do believe that I have chronic depression.
Wow, this video is a eye opener. It's almost as this is me in the video, I'm sure I have PDD... Just feel like no, it won't get better... Ever
P2G is helping me realize more about me than I ever realized.
We are happy to help! Did you relate to any of these signs?
@@Psych2go Sorry for the delayed response! I relate to quite a few of them, but on a level so mild it didn’t cross my mind. The symptoms provided have surfaced in higher severity during the last two years.

I've suffered from chronic depression my entire life.
Same. Mine started at 16 when I lost my brother he was 21. Never been the same since. Life long meds now.
Me too mine stated very young like 8 or 9 maybe younger. I’m 38 now.
I was diagnosed with depression a week ago though the signs have been there for around two-three years now. It's hard to live with it; I stopped doing my hobbies, I haven't hung out with friends on free time for two years, and I feel very little happiness for things I'd normally lose sleep in excitement for, like a trip abroad my family is planning. It's kinda like my default emotion is sadness that can be happiness for short periods of time, but not long. I feel guilty because my friend tries to help but I don't know how she could help, because I can't trust her. It feels like people just ignore it. "Oh you're depressed? Well [name] is too! You could be friends!" They look over the whole point of depression. Not wanting to be around anyone. I have emotional outbursts often and I am afriad of harming my relatives.
Ps. I relate to Shane a lot.
Why do you feel as if you cannot trust your friend if they are trying to help you push through the misery of mental illness? 🤔
Many "friends" don't stick around...can you explain as to why you feel this way? Am very curious. I'd appreciate your time ☺️
Thankyou from a fellow life-long sufferer.
Peace and Light 🌟
@@tourbillon13 she's not my type. She often leaves me alone to be with a friend of hers, who I don't get along with, and my friend has lied about me to multiple people before
You are a very good videographer. ;)❤
I LOVE the stardew valley references!!!!
I actually got diagnosed with this a few days ago. Life has been...a drab.
I felt... Genuinely happy the other day. It was incredible. My days were just, low and sluggish. But, that one day has made me happy, even after school started. Ive slowly started to decline again, but... I was happy
I just wanna say I love that u used shane for this episode

Very informative and all, but I absolutely adore that they put Shane from Stardew Valley
I have P.D.D. since more than 13years. Now, it's just my reality.
PLUS.. I have others Mental illnesses, like Borderline, PTSD, Anxiety disorder, A.D.D. ... And some more.. like psychotic. Mostly worsen during big depressive episodes..
I’m so sorry 😕 I hope you continue to heal 💜
