People of all ages and ethnicities mental health is worsening exponentially. And rather than helping to improve the situation, politicians across the board are exacerbating it. We need to talk about this much more and find ways to help sufferers including those who are too proud or ashamed to admit they’re sufferers, before the problem becomes overwhelming.
Well said 👏
Denise is brilliant. I have mild autism and other health problems and I don't get much help from my adult mental health team sadly. I'm left to defend for myself basically.
I know, right? It's tough enough as it is coming to terms with multiple health problems and the effect on your mental wellbeing but factoring in autism exacerbates it ... you'd think there would be more out there, wouldn't you? In my case, if I hear one more mention about counselling, I really will go into the mother of all meltdowns!
Honest; energetic & intriguing lady. Great to see someone talking ‘real-talk’ ~ very admirable. 💐
Thank you Denise! I am struggling with depression. You are doing a great job .
You say that you suffer from depression, what do you think is best, saying 'i suffer from depression' Or saying 'I am happy'
Try looking into Buddhist mantra,s
You need to programme your brain
I am happy, I am happy, I am happy, x108 times.
Look at Denise still living emotionally 30 years in the past.
We all have our problems
Please try
It works.
She ain't wallowing
That won't work for true depression. You need to go to your GP and ask for help. The 'I am happy' mantra may work once the depression has been treated
Well said curlybean
I've been in recovery for a few years, the first 5 I practically lived in meetings: morning noon night. Over the years I've spoken in depth some of the time with thousands of people and their struggles with mental illness and addiction. Not everyone who is in recovery suffers from ill mental health but many do. Personally I do mindfulness and meditation and visited and stayed at Scotland's largest Buddhist retreat many times. Now buddism can be great but it is not as simple as telling yourself you are happy. I am still linked in with my community mental health team - I've relapse with my mental health on average 3x a year.
I have been diagnosed with clinical depression with psychosis and delusions. They diagnosed and treated me for bipolar for two years before another diagnosis of complex post traumatic stress disorder; following this I got a bit of stability.
Unlike Denise I do have a traumatic past and people's comments saying you just tell yourself you're happy is far from truth. I'm blessed to have discovered meditation and Buddhism but people with real underlying issues need 💯 help from those services too. Well said.
@@nuncaolvidare4895 wow!! You've really been through the mill. I'm glad you have found support and ways of coping. ❤️❤️
So many people are utterly ignorant about mental health. I've been told many times that I have no right to suffer from anxiety and depression because I "don't live in a warzone or have a serious physical health issue." That's not how mental health works at all. In some ways, mental health should be treated in the same way as physical health. For example, if there is someone who has a physical health issue, they may well require more help, support, patience and understanding from others. That's exactly the same for someone with a mental health issue.
Denise is a wonderful woman
Great you had Denise on Nana.....everything she said I can relate to..especially the "pull yourself together" advice you're given by a lot of people who have no idea how clinical depression and panic disorder can damage your life.
Depression means your either doing something you shouldn’t or should be doing something that your not learn to ground your self she’s clearly not grounded.
@@dang4160 not quite that simple !..hormones play a big part during pregnancy and menopause ..things that can't really be prevented if you're female.
a bag 🤣
Lloyd don't see Dr. Infront of your name. You've no scooby. I've spoken to at least 5,000 people in person. Majority female. 70% . Things you put on here can affect people that's vulnerable. Anyone told u to think before u speak????
@@nuncaolvidare4895 you and Lloyd can think what you like.
Denise is a true soul, a very genuine person. Good for her.
A these nasty comments... No sympathy or empathy 👎 Exactly what is wrong with this horrible world.
@toryalienboris triggered sweetie? You are wrongly informed by the way... I don't watch TV at all. This just popped up my TH-cam feed. However I empathise with her from my own experiences. Muppet
@toryalienboris two things.
1, you're here because you're also watching, yes or no?
2, you DON'T watch as you said "stop watching", in which case how do you know she's spouting crap if you didn't watch?
@toryalienboris been there, done that for many years 🤣 it's time for the adults now darling get back under your bridge x
@toryalienboris ok and what's your excuse?
Well done for talking about this Denise
I think it’s astonishing that despite her depression, she’s still had the courage to go mainstream with her concerns over the Covid response.
If you suffer from depression you can still have an opinion.
@@gdfggggg 👏👏👏
yawn.
@@gdfggggg no, people with depression are not allowed an opinion. I think we should put a law in place to stop this. Opinions should only be open to people without depression. Bank robbers, terrorists, death cult leaders should obviously be allowed an opinion. But not people with depression.
@@bfree2speak_freely48 eh?
I suffer it.
Get help, talk to someone but by all means get help and don’t suffer in silence call the NHS 111 alternatively call Samaritans on 116 123 and get that assistance.
@@bobcosmic
And stop watching the news
@@marylynch951 true
@@marylynch951 the news thrives on negativity and fear mongering!
yes watching bullshit Lie 'news. will sure depress ...of course is all rubbish ........😆
Denise you’re wonderful for speaking out. Thankyou so much you’ve saved lives-I know this for sure.
A very useful interview thank you 👏👏👏👏
Where’s Neil Oliver? 😳🏴🇬🇧
7 o'clock.. I'll be watching 😉
@@kym1160 😉
👏👏👏❤️
I think nearly every one will have depression now as we live in such a sad miserable world
Still not a condition thats widely accepted , stigma still pervades , better understanding today , hardly any health services in this country to help
Thank you Denise x
Depression is horrible I wouldnt wish that on many ppl in this world - maybe Putin.
Lovely talk denise welch
It's Jacqueline, and her name isn't Welch....
bag
bin bag...
Switch off the TV & radio. Just don’t listen to it! The best thing I did 2 years ago … x
Wish could do the same got no TV but can't get off my phone it's news and look at news all the time it's depressing
Great actress Denise. You were brilliant on coronation street 👏
She's certainly an actress,, that's plain to see.....
Denise we love you❤
Thousands don't..
empathy of a buffalo
I love Denise, she is one of my depression heroes 🙌
North Belfast in Northern Ireland has the highest rate of suicide in the whole of Europe! An elderly friend of mine has only left the house 3 times in two years ... in order to be jabbed.
Good job the depression didn’t strike her on the days that she appeared on Loose Women !
it probably didn't help being surrounded by other harpies did it
Try to be a decent human?
You don’t understand depression.
I don't think I would consider my childhood normal if my dad had dressed up as a drag queen.
What would you call normal? Being rude?
@@homewithemma42 love your comment. Exactly this!
Hard work and challenge will help depression as an actor she is out of work a lot so therefore she is prone to depression
For some it might !..those who are just a "bit fed up"..clinical depression is serious and can be life threatening ..doesn't matter what your job is.
'Actors' dont know theyve been bloody born ......
@@kym1160
Yes I agree Kym
That’s true, it does.
She's out of work a lot because she can't act....
it's always worse for so called 'celebs' isnt it
Oh yes it is, let me run for my box of Kleenex 🤦🏽♂️
Grow up
@@homewithemma42 Thanks for your comment 😃
she doesnt say it's worse. what you talkin about?
Grow old gracefully - you can't fight it.
Noone every talks to the partners of these people. It's all about them
issit?
Victim mertality ...is married to Tim Healey
I'm struggling to muster the sympathy.. Hold on I'm gonna try harder
Grow up
@@homewithemma42 cheer up...
Hollyoaks money dried up?😂
🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
dried up is a very good description...
When you're chewin on lifes grissel
don't grumble, whistle
and everything will turn out for the best
and.... altogether now... . Always look on the bright side of life , always look on the light side of life....
Cheer up Denise.....
Narcissism can be a very lonely place. I wish her and all other sufferers well.
Spot on shes a full blown narcissist
How thoughtful
She might be. Depression is no joke though. Maybe it’s her way of dealing with it?
on what basis? you think only narcs get depressed - maybe some do. others dont .. unfortunately.
😂😂😂
All that money all that chit chat on loooose women ! Celebrities depressed ! Give up the telly then ! Bs !
Grow up dear 🤮
You don't know what's round the corner for you
Must admit that whilst I'm not depressed I'd rather have a big kitchen.
@@marylynch951 yes I do,.. there's a mini market, a bank, a dry cleaners and a chippy.... what's round the corner for you Mary,. watching dried up old prunes spouting c... on loose women..?
She talks as if she is the only person who has ever been depressed in the world, and she is not 'well researched' in this area. I've suffered with depression but, to be honest, I'm fed with Denise banging on about her depression - drones on about herself with nothing positive about helping yourself. Victim mentality. 😔
Depression is not an 'illness' - it's a human condition - and very 'normal' in the current state of the world!
Most of us just have to get on with it silently and listening to Denise droning on about herself does not help!
But she was on GBNews to talk about it...clinical depression can become an illness, not just affecting your mental state but your body also suffers..it can debilitate.
yebbut some ppl experience it a whole lot more than others ... some hardly at all.
@@kym1160 yes, we already know!
@@moodyonroody5313 tell me about it. Obviously she's not too depressed to go on the TV.
I must admit this is about the seventh time I've heard Denise's story, she's right about the fact there is virtually no support when people need it. Most doctors will throw antidepressants at patients but offer nothing else.
Sorry I can't see why a millionaire with everything she could possibly need for the rest of her life is suffering with depression unless it is because she feels irrelevant and past it?
Sorry Tim, the richest people on earth can have depression. My life would be considered perfect by some people but anxiety and depression hit me and I was in near despair. It’s more nuanced than your simplistic Points, no offence.
a female actor past 57 is finished ..except for the role of Grandma 😄
You're making the very common mistake of assuming that someone's mental health will always mirror their external environment and circumstances. A very fortunate person in life can develop physical health issues, and the same goes for mental health issues.
