I understand completely. The feeling of loneliness is unbearable when you need someone to be there for you in your time of need. Friends should know when you’re upset and not leave you behind to go do something fun without you..but they won’t know that you’re not okay unless you tell them. Not *everyone* understands when you’re upset, some people are blind to knowing people’s actual *true* emotions even if they’re a close friend that you care dearly about. If you need me I’m here for you.
Worst thing about depression is lost interest in things that you used to love aka anhedonia. You just wake up on the morning and You have nothing to hang onto ....
The scariest thing is that feeling of emptiness and numbness. I remember wanting to feel something, anything, even if it meant that I had to feel the saddest. The mere recall makes me shiver. That was scary and that was when I realised that sadness, devastation, every negative emotion is better than not feeling emotions at all. Love to everyone. It's hard to push through but know that you're the most precious thing in the world. Live for yourself. Don't give up. You're so strong for clicking on this video, learning about it ands still breathing. YOU ARE STRONG AND VERY AMAZING. Sending love and hope and prayers for you to get outta depression soon. ❤️
Hi there! I’m really sorry to hear that you're feeling down. I wanted to let you know that there's a way you can make a real difference in the lives of others, which might bring some positivity into your own life as well. I’m part of an association that buys toys for young children who don’t have much. If you're interested, you can collaborate with us and help bring some joy to these kids. Even a small donation can go a long way in putting a smile on a child’s face. If you're able and willing to help, it could give you a sense of purpose and brighten your day too. Thank you for considering this!
Hello sorry this is kinda late. I’m not diagnosed but Im experiencing exactly what you described and if you’re comfortable I’d like to know more before worrying my parents by asking to get checked out. I’ve been stuck in a constant state of apathy for nearly five years and I just feel so stuck. I want to feel again.
I don't know who originally said this, but for me, it was extremely accurate: "Depression feels like badly wanting to go home, even when you are already there".
You know what makes it worse? The fact that you're not able to say "I'm depressed" without feeling guilt or certainty because in today's society it's a "trend". You can't openly talk about it with someone becuase you haven't experienced this thing and you have this status and so forth. Being told "just cheer up there's so much to be happy about" is like telling a person with asthma "just breathe, there's so much air"
Same with panic attacks. I’ve never told anyone outside my family and therapist because that reduces my credibility. I don’t think that most people get why I don’t show fear
It means society is curious. Let me help the way you view: The fact that the infinite hotel paradox video in this channel has the same amount of views as this video really tells us something about your comment.
I have been depressed for a long time, but after taking shrooms few months ago, l feel much happier and highly motivated and my ADHD gone , lost a ton of anxiousness and had a few epiphanies about how I should live my life. I decided to buy an ounce for backup, but haven’t yet felt the need to take any more since then.
I actualy dislike his voice, too monotonic and slow, makes me loose concentration. the distorted base also gives me a head ace if the video is longer then 5 minutes. i only watch his narrated videos if its one that interest me allot and its usually thnaks to the video, not the narrator
I have depression and anxiety and for me, it was difficult to open this topic up to my parents because the last time I tried my mom said "Why are you depressed? What's there to be depressed about? Your life is so good.". I remember telling my therapist "I am tired of everything, but I don't know what everything is.".
I've had similar experiences with my mom. I don't know if I should feel angry that she dismisses my problems, or if I should feel empathetic because I know she's dealing with her own set of them.
"Why are you depressed? What's there to be depressed about? Your life is so good." this is exactly what my parent's said and that felt like a stab on the heart
been suffering from depression and anxiety ever since i turned 17, its been ten years now. recently sought treatment. doing great now.. dont hesitate to reach out for medical help, you deserve help!
@@Dr_Sheeda I'm good at programming, computer networking and also do freelancing but my parents are not happy. They want me to complete my degree and I can't go back there it would take me a lot of time. I applied to a thousand institutions abroad but no one is accepting me. I just want to end here I can't do anything. I worked hard on programming did a lot of work but still I'm not reaching anywhere
A thing I’ve experienced, is feeling emotionless. Many people think depression is about being sad, but most of the time you just don’t feel anything. For a good amount of time, the only emotion I felt was anger. Because I was angry at myself for not feeling any emotion like sadness, happiness, etc.
Yeah same. I think this is type of depression is the worst in my opinion and feels like it won’t ever go away. Honestly, I think it’s more so genetic than anything. I used to feel joy, love, pleasure etc. when I was in highschool but now after highschool I don’t fee any of those feelings anymore. No excitement, no pleasure, no interest to do anything. I purely do the things I do with my friends because I know it’s what I’m supposed to do to feel human. But even being people causes no joy or pleasure, only experiencing anxiety or fear for no reason. I’ve been in that same mindset and on a rare basis get mad over the fact I can’t feel those emotions anymore but, I found that doing that only makes it worse so it’s better to just deal it with for now and hope that in the future with the advancements of technology, science and medicine that we’ll one day find a cure or some type of relief for this type of depression.
One thing that I believe has helped so far is listening to different types of music and singing along with them. My body, for some reason, can still remember the emotions I’ve felt in the past so, my thinking is that by listening to different types of music with different genres will help me “spark” those emotions in my body again. Start of with sad and depressed music but make sure to slowly and surely move upwards to exciting music and love songs.

Best way I can describe depression (at least for me, or how I felt when I was depressed) is just the feeling of tiredness. Tired of dealing with people, tired of waking up and just tired of living to be more specific. You just want to keep sleeping and never wake up. You just don’t have the energy to keep going or to push through, even though you want to live. So it just feels like a constant battle that never ends, and hopefully it gets easier with time but you gotta push through, you gotta
I just don't care. If someone says something about me I say ok. I don't waste my time explaining or caring. Like I don't have that energy to care and that is begining to expand into all areas of my life. My answer to everything is ok.

the part where you said “it’s a medical condition, not a weakness. you can’t will yourself to get over depression just like you can’t will yourself to get over a broken arm.” i really needed to hear that, thank you.
I always thought of myself as strong physically and mentally. Than 4 years ago I went through a bout of depression for a year. I don't wish that experience on anyone. What I was told by two of my cousins who are combat veterans and had PTSD was to throw away the medication or at least limit it and just do what you like doing, live life. That's what I did and slowly things got better. Don't give up and you will be just fine trust me. Good luck.
It's true, we're all products of causal influences; none of us got to choose anything about ourselves, our bodies, brains, genes, chemical balances, etc.. You can choose the influences to make things better though.
U really need to hear that? Ye sure, so u can blame everything u lack doing everyday on this "depression" and not feel guilty for it. Sheesh. These people need to wake up.
I have watched this video so many times in the past few months because it makes me feel like someone understands how I feel. It is like a checklist of what I go through every day, people don't seem to understand that is not sadness, particularly those I care about the most.
Guys i had depression due to work stress and I have survived it by my own without any medication or medical help. This is for the people here who are having depression, running thoughts, sleepless nights, bad dreams and anxiety. Try 'mantra meditation' by chanting 'omm namah shivay'. You can see TH-cam videos about chanting 'om namah shivay' 108 times etc (there are many videos regarding this) and follow the tone and tempo. Then sit in a relaxed meditation pose and chant it in very low tone so that you can feel your voice vibration in the throat, chest and brain. Focus on vibration and feel it. Do it 10-15 mins (you can do more time if want) every day before sleeping or at dawn (or many times you want). you can feel peacefulness in brain and feel that every running thoughts and bad thoughts are tearing out from brain. You can feel the change after within 4-5 days and within one month you can remove the depression completely (at least in my case). PS: I am not spreading any religion here. So if you are comfortable with it, then follow it. I come to know about it from internet also. You can dm me on Instagram @sourabhpal03 if it is helpful for you. I will glad to know that I can change someone's life. Thank you :)
This is a true story of a lady who came out of eighteen years of depression : m.th-cam.com/video/2QJwE9ed8xc/w-d-xo.html I even have her contact number if any of you wanna talk to her. But please don't give up. Your lives are so precious.
@@sherylg2601 You seem like such a sweet and kindhearted person going around sharing encouraging words and hope like this. I hope your life will be filled with lots of love and happiness! 💛💛☺️
I can sure tell you that kids these days are getting depressed by their own will. Its like they think being depressed is the new fashion I really don’t have proof of this but I have seen it happen. :/
@@synx4182 you're mostly right, but the major part isn't pretending and it's very real. I think it's because they don't have anything to complain about so life get's boring and you fall into it little by little. I think most depressed people aren't the ones with the hardest lives and the biggest struggles. These people do not have time to be depressed, mostly. I'm 19 and I have a normal life, not poor nor rich, I have friends and a family that loves me, a girlfriend that loves me and that I love. But i'm diagnosed as depressed. Last year I spent in a foreign country far from my family and friends, locked down, I spent 24h/24 in my bed didn't attend university and lost my body shape my face had red marks on it that slowly got away after a while (it was apparently because of stress my doctor said). The only reason I left the house was to buy food. And the food I bought wasn't the best. I found myself in a bad situation out of nowhere. Today I'm better but I haven't fully recovered. I have no reason to still be depressed yet I am. I don't even know why i'm saying all this but whatever just what passes through my mind.
We’re all in this together. I might not know you personally, but I genuinely do feel concerned over your circumstance. If there’s anything you need or want to talk about, or if you feel overwhelmed, I’ll always be here to lend you an ear. I really wish you all the best in your future endeavours.
Like the video said if you have 5 or more of these symptoms it's depression. Suicidal thoughts are just one of them. If it isn't depression but you still feel terrible the label shouldn't matter anyways. Consider talking to someone you know or trust, and if it is really bad get therapy. The pandemic has made a lot of us felt depressed so what you're going through is normal.

Once, I believe I was depressed, during my teenager years to be precise. It was a dark period of my life. I couldn't muster up the strength to do anything worthwhile. Studying was impossible. But the worst part, I think, was the persistant flow of negative thoughts. It was overwhelming and destroyed my confidence in seconds. At the moment, I'm in a good place in life. Through therapy, I gained a lot of control of the flow of my thoughts : I don't control my thoughts, but I am able to dismiss the negative, argue against it and, eventually, have positive opinions about myself and what I do.
“I didn't want to wake up. I was having a much better time asleep. And that's really sad. It was almost like a reverse nightmare, like when you wake up from a nightmare you're so relieved. I woke up into a nightmare.”
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. 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! th-cam.com/video/EXQGTInPpZU/w-d-xo.html "Come to me all you who are weary and burdened and I will give you rest"
1. Try not to think about anything (COMPLETE ABSENCE OF MIND) for ten minutes. 2. If this is hard do 10 pushups and now try not to think anything. Since you have depreciated your energy your brain will not think that fast and you can make it much easier not to think about anything. 3.After 10 minutes focus on onlh posiive things .If you do it correctly, it might be hard for you to thing about negative things since you have shutdown your mind for sonetime. Know think aboug your dreams and continue. 4.If you cant do what you want then you will This might seem absurd but hey there is no loss. Hope you get well soon mate. Respect You csn try taking a shoeer before doing this and it might be more effective. (I am starting to think i have mad psychology skills of maybe its just that wuerantine philosophy and psychology boost)
No it isn't, we aren't ever going to die till it's a severe trauma depression is just the person is thinking so less of himself which kills the faith in him
I spazzed out and went to jail on thanksgiving. I need to go to qng managment. I am slowly becoming a shell of who i once was and there is no one to talk to
@@aaryapawar1158 well, what I mean is that (to me,) when I was in a state of depression, it was very painful, nobody understood me, and to me, pain was something that would eventually stop. however when I was in that stage it didn't. it never did. I felt like I had to end myself in order to stop this pain. but I was also terrified of doing that. I wanted to enjoy my life, but depression would not let me. just like the words of Freddie mercury, I don't want to die, I just wish I was never born. you're right, it killed the faith in me. I used to have faith in myself, but several experiences made me lose the faith I had.
Depression is when you don’t feel feelings besides anger and sadness . Your numb to everything around you , you don’t feel joy in any activities, you don’t feel love being around people you love, it feels like even when I smile and are “happy” it’s all fake . I fake emotions because it’s easier to do that then ask for help and be labeled weak . Depression is being so dead inside that the thought of suicide isn’t so bad, it actually sounds better then being alive in a constant loop of self pity, misery , self hate . You get labeled lazy because you don’t do anything and you feel like a burden on everybody around you . You can’t get it out of your head , doesn’t matter how hard you try . “Happiness” , yea I miss that , I feel like I’ve been stuck In this for so long I forget what it feels like to be genuinely happy... Edit:it’s never to late to get help! Working on yourself is really helping me, self love is very important. Your life is valuable and you are loved.
You just put all my feelings into words... I guess u have accepted urself.. I am still in the phase of understanding why I have this depression and how to just somehow instantly stop it.
I can't remember the last time I was genuinely happy... Now I'm pretty much always sad, I have nothing to look foward to, I regret my past, hate my present and I'm pessmistic about my future. I thought this was just a phase in my life but now I'm starting to think otherwise.
I wanted a year to see someone one of the first thing he said was can you guarantee you won't try to harm yourself while under our care. I stud up and walked out
it’s so confusing. my dad asked me if i needed any help and i just sat there. my mind was literally saying “say yes! this is your chance!” and i just couldn’t come to say it. idk if that makes any sense.
The same thing happened to me. A few days later I attempted and was in a mental hospital for a week. It was good getting help and even though I'm still struggling it's much better now.
cuz its scary and you dont really know what it means. ive been there too. and the pp i had helping me werent very good at it. so i was afraid to ask lest the same experience. and then i tried another place and thankfuly its better. so give yourslef the courage to try. if its not better at least you know you tried. and then if its not better then keeptrying till it gets better.
just because it has 20mil views doesn't mean that the people watching it are depressed. It's probably the fact that they are interested in the topic and want to learn more about it, just like i am
@@dieselgeezer18 I mean look at the comments, alot of people are mostly talking about their own depression or poetisizing it. Unfortunately I think depression is one of those things that just need to be taught in school or something because the stigma is so strong, that to teach a individual person who is most likely close minded isn't going to be of their own will. It's like with trans identities or other lgbtq+ identities. Most people unfamiliar with it don't want to be educated unless their heart is still open to it, so imo it has to be taught at an age where you start meeting new and more people. So that we don't end up with more hate crimes like we have in the past.
@@nug9g they were saying that not all 20mil people are depressed. The people in the comments most likely are, but that doesn’t mean everyone who only clicked on the video is.
It's like I'm not even living for myself, but just living for my family because the thought of knowing that my parents would get very devastated when I'm gone is the only thing that is anchoring me to this world. Maybe, this explained why I've been feeling like I don't have any goals in my life or things that I'd like to achieve. Maybe, it's the feeling of what good having dreams or goals do anyway if you're not going to live long enough to make them come true.
sending hugs from an online stranger🫂. i hope ur alright and soon find your purpose (actual live not just hold on dear life for your parents).You may seek help from people you trust.😊 best of luckk🍀.
I've always had This imaginary picture of my future self. Later I realised that my life is diverting in another route, I am not afraid of taking that route but I'm afraid that the picture i have always remembered will stick with me as another person who i imagine everything I want in my life as and do absolutely nothing. I have some imaginary sides of mine and I cannot satisfy any of them . I know there is something wrong in my head so if my imaginary future self becomes my present copy of mine I swear I will go insane because that's how thoughtfully I have created a future self.
My god, you just described me to perfection. I feel like I'm just waiting for things to become too terrible to bear as I age and become even more lonely until I'm free to finally let myself go
Depression , is losing the will to literally do anything . Not willing to sleep nor stay awake. Not willing to eat nor starve. Not willing to live or die , you don’t want to do anything but simply stop existing . You lose the will , the love , and hope you have for others . You get melancholic slowly , the more you want to get out of it , the more it sucks you in. If you ever go through it , please , instead of cutting or crying , try out getting help .
Heera Vishwakarma I know you don’t know me and I’m just a random person if you want to talk to me you can. If you have Snapchat Instagram anything you can talk to me I have depression and it’s getting somewhat better and talking to someone really helps just make sure it’s the right person
I've had very intense depression my first 3 years of high school. It was so bad I made no effort to make any new friends, constantly thought of suicide and came up with a plan with the time and date I would do it. I actually almost died from my first suicide attempt at 14. I had a few more after that but managed to pull myself out from ending my life again. I'm now 17, a senior in high school and still struggle but I try to stay positive as much as I can. I've been on antidepressants before and had therapy but it was so bad those 2 years, neither one of them helped. Just know that the only person who can help you stay afloat is yourself. You have to learn how to swim, otherwise you'll drown and go deeper and deeper into depression. I try my best to distract myself and focus on school but it's hard when my depression takes over my whole mindset and leaves me feeling so hopeless.
Sally May .hi I had similar problems ...I over came that... I found out lot of ideas to over come depression... if you want I can share it with you and help you out
Whenever u feel like you're getting bad, try and distract yourself with things that you love or maybe exercise. Just do anything that will keep you from thinking too much.
I’ve heard this from a friend who was diagnosed with depression and anxiety, she said depression is like living in a body that wants to live but a mind that wants to die. She’s now surrounded by people who love her to bits and I couldn’t be more proud of her.
Psychedelics are just an exceptional mental health breakthrough. It's quite fascinating how effective they are against depression and anxiety. Saved my life.
Can you help with the reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. Very hard to get a reliable source here in Australia. Really need!
Yes, dr.sporessss I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
I wish they were readily available in my place. Microdosing was my next plan of care for my husband. He is 59 & has so many mental health issues plus probable CTE & a TBI that left him in a coma 8 days. It's too late now I had to get a TPO as he's 6'6 300+ pound homicidal maniac. He's constantly talking about killing someone. He's violent. Anyone reading this Familiar w/ BPD know if it is common for an obsession with violence.
Yxung FX If you don’t want to talk to someone in person, try calling a depression hotline or joining a chat room for depression. I truly hope you feel happy again one day
Been struggling with it almost 4 years. Can't even remember how is it like to have a happy or just a normal life. It's like a demon in my head which raises only negative stuff, eats my energy. Wish i could go back in time to just get the old feelings and the view of life.
Well... As I always say to my friend. Keep your chin up someone always will love you and you always have something to live for. Life is like lemonade, if it's too sour, add some sugar
At least you have a wish to get your positive feelings back, that's a good sign. Do you feel like nothing excites you, nothing seems new..? Like something is always pushing you to the ground? Only when we were kids, discovering life, those were the times when we would appreciate little things, and those little things would make us happy.
Hey. I've been struggling with this for 10 years. Things got worse since 3 years ago. I feel terrible right now. And I don't really know why I am typing this... I... I only hope things will get better soon... For everyone.
Fer Abaroa I feel like I've struggled with it for my whole life. I can't really remember living without it, and I feel hopeless about it. Thankfully, I do have someone I can talk to, even if he is not a therapist, he knows what it feels like and understands me. I would suggest talking to someone if you haven't yet. And keep your head up!
yeah, i realized the other day that ive lost a ton of interesting aspects about me because of my depression. Its like sliding into quicksand, and having your hands tied together behind you, struggling, you want to get out, but you literally cannot. You physically do not have the power.
"Suicide doesnt end suffering, it transfers it to your loved ones" - my friend. Kept me from suicide until I got better, not wanting to hurt my mum, dad, and siblings overpowered the feeling to make the pain stop. It was a difficult road but i made it through and im better now than ive ever been in life. So can you.
You are a Strong and worthy being my friend let's go and make the world a better place... There are no great discoveries and advances as long as there is an unhappy child on earth -Albert Einstein
It's different for everyone but I wanna share my experiences too, maybe someone can relate: - feeling useless and worthless - living from day to day - used to have dreams but gave them up - no motivation to do anything - sleeping either too much or too less - isn't good at anything - feels like a burden to family/friends - cries a lot at night - feels like a void inside myself is slowly consuming me but nobody hears me screaming - apologizing a lot bc everything is my fault - starts panicking
Aww...I wish I can hug u rn :( no noo please literally ya'll are the most precious human I have ever seen :D🧡💜❤💙see you still can get through this, maybe deep inside you're feeling weak rn but I see you as the one of the strong peoples out there✨. I'm so sorry for what's going on there or your mind lately, nobody deserved to feel like that so yea you can take a rest who say you can't tho? Just even we were just a strangers it's alright to let out your feelings to anybody as long as you are comfortable, and please take cares precious human:(🧡. You must have a reason to be like this, so don't make those things makes you lose and destroys your life, you're not deserve this. Make all those moments in your life a lesson, make a good decision and you will get an good pay off, you are smart and eventually no matter how many times we give up in the end we still have to going on, and we can adapt to it slowly but surely
And yep it must be hard to exprience that all..sometimes feelings are more hurting then pyhsic but really that was so amazing of you to keep going on till now with all of those stuffs going on. You deserved better :)🧡✨
I can relate. Maybe we are the same person with different body. :( I am also surrounded by people who are not willing to listen whenever I want to talk about what’s in my head. I am also suffering from anxiety. I also can’t afford the therapy and can’t ask for help because my mother is also experiencing some hardship.
@@MoeChuu Thank you so much for your kind words!! They mean a lot to me and give me so much strength!! 💜💙 You're a wonderful person.. caring about a stranger like that..you must have a heart of gold! Thanks a lot again, you made my day! 💜💙❤️ I wish you all the best, please always stay happy and healthy! 💜💙❤️
It's not always the sad ones. Most of the times, it's the ones that seem perfectly normal, coz they were forced in the past by others to hide their feelings so well. So just look out for each other.
I could remember several years ago I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Was actually addicted to cigarettes and alcohol. Not until my wife recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 11 years totally clean. Shrooms are God- sents.
Congrats on your recovery. Most persons never realizes psilocybin can be used as a miracle medication to save lives. Years back i wrote an entire essay about psychedelics. they saved you from death bud, lets be honest here.
Can you help me with the reliable source. I'm 64 and have suffered for years with addiction, anxiety and severe ptsd, I got my panic attacks under control myself years ago and they have come back with a vengeance, I'm constantly trying to take full breaths but can't get the full satisfying breath out, it's absolutely crippling me, i live in Greece. I don't know much about these mushrooms. Really need a reliable source!! Can't wait to get them.
YES very sure of Dr.raymycology. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
Ive done shrooms last month in my house. It taught me how severely traumatized I was from alcohol. I healed from many mental traumas from my past and was able to forgive, let go. Shrooms to me is a remedy not a vice. I even felt more refreshed the morning after. So no hangovers. No depression mood for days. No anxiety.l now have a more calm mind
It can be made into a funny joke but when it’s time to be serious it’s time to be serious. Dark humor is still funny but when people actually need help at the time they deserve jt
“If you haven’t experienced depression yourself, avoid comparing it to time you’ve felt down. Comparing what they’re experiencing to normal temporary feeling of sadness, can make them feel guilty for struggling”. OMG.I.FELT.THAT.
Yeah it is true. Everyone here is aying that will be alright thinking that they have depression and it fells like they haven't seen the video where it says the difference between being depressed and having depression. It doesn't just go away
US and Canada: text 741741 UK: text 85258 | Ireland: text 50808 you must repent and turn from sin . And confess you’re a sinner in need of saving . And confess with your mouth and believe in your heart that Jesus is Lord and God raised him from the dead 3 days later . And ask for forgiveness and build a relationship with him , by reading the Bible and worship etc . Always repent when you sin or try . AND HAVE FAITH . BUT EVERYTHING BAD WILL NOT GO AWAY Maybe it will maybe not.
I had 8 of those symptoms back then everyone said "that's not depression you were just sad" I would cry in secret but never shed a single tear in front of them. Then later i stopped talking to anyone. Not a single word left my mouth for 5 days when I was too much into it. After i got out of that environment and came back home to my family things got better. Sometimes you just need to be around people who love you❤ that helps a lot. They somehow gave me hope.
Yea in know that, My parents literally tell any of my doctors that I don’t need it. Cause to them, I don’t have it even with the doctors have evidence for it. And when I try to get a therapist, they literally tell them to quit calling. I hope the best for you.
Sahana Roy I totally get you. I’m scared to tell my family. If I tell my friends, they’ll just claim they’re depressed too. I haven’t been professionally diagnosed with depression, but, sometimes I fantasize (literally FANTASIZE) about my death which I don’t know is really weird, psychotic, or is just really weird lol. I’ve been hiding dangerous objects under my bed, and, just recently, my mom got me a counselor because she thinks there’s something wrong with my mental health. I don’t like my counselor, I think she’s kind of mean, and, anyway, I’ve found myself not even wanting to talk to people anymore so that could be part of it. I don’t know if things are going to get better or worse. I think I need help, but I don’t want help. I feel like at this point, the only people I can talk to are amazing people like you, who don’t joke around about this, and make such relatable and heartwarming comments. That’s why I came here :)
The worse part about being depressed it's the overwhelming point of no return, when you loosed all the interest for everyone or anything, nothing it's exiting anymore, living just because dying is'nt a better option
@@dokusei7722 In some countries you can have access to a psycological emergency center for free and as long as you need. The longer it stays untreated, the worst it gets every time it comes back. Sorry
I think the best way to overcome the sadness is accept all the things happen to you, even negative thoughts. For the reason, I had some experiences related to depresssion, and I chose try to escaped from it. It took a very long time I realized I was not happy with my life. Then I learn how to accept with my real emotion and respect all of that. The result is I feel better, and my thoughts is more relieve. I used this way to give advice for my friend and she said that she become more comfortable with her life. Therefore, one of the biggest lesson I have learn in my life is love myself positive slowly 😊❤
When you’re depressed but you feel like you shouldn’t feel as depressed as somebody who has it much worse and feeling depressed doesn’t change anything so you can’t even feel depressed with your depression. So you just feel frustrated and angry at feeling sad. But also still depressed.
Lack of spiritual knowledge our mind stuck in nagtive energy then our body senses misguided us so god said keep faith in heart then souls connect with love. Be kind be honest be truthful be grateful obey souls respect souls respect rules respect nature respect women except everything happened in life somereason then people and nature coprate with love. Past is jail. Guilt and stress stop blessing. Moody and stubborn behavior brings lots fear in life. Cut down desire only grateful. Cut down sugar and eat fresh plant based food. Positive attitude is power of mind. Do little things for others builds up happiness in heart.
Do you feel tired? Depressed? Perhaps suicidal. If so you are not alone(Hundreds of Millions suffer worldwide) ; God is standing right next to you waiting for you to ask for help. Give Jesus a chance and watch your life flip for the better and you will be set free. Matthew 11: . 28Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am [f]gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.” th-cam.com/video/_C6lNThb2cU/w-d-xo.html I’d love to know your thoughts on this
unless it keeps coming back, then its a permanent solution to a temporary but reoccurring problem. if i was to describe it, it'd be like moving away because badgers keep coming in your back garden during the winter.
Hi! Jesus Christ healed me from depression. I know He can do the same for you. Please come to Jesus. He died for your sins on a cross. Please repent of your sins and come to Him. "Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest." Matthew 28:11
1. Try not to think about anything (COMPLETE ABSENCE OF MIND) for ten minutes. 2. If this is hard do 10 pushups and now try not to think anything. Since you have depreciated your energy your brain will not think that fast and you can make it much easier not to think about anything. 3.After 10 minutes focus on onlh posiive things .If you do it correctly, it might be hard for you to thing about negative things since you have shutdown your mind for sonetime. Know think aboug your dreams and continue. 4.If you cant do what you want then you will This might seem absurd but hey there is no loss. Hope you get well soon mate. Respect You csn try taking a shoeer before doing this and it might be more effective. (I am starting to think i have mad psychology skills of maybe its just that wuerantine philosophy and psychology boost)
me too but since young i am always full of depression and anxiety, full of worries. I dont want to die or attempt suicide, I just want to be happy again without any worries or problems occuring me...
From my personal experience: You want to change your life for the better, but it's as though you're never ready for it because as you try to change, depression will slowly creep back and eat you up again. This process can take up to years and always ends up in a loop, and even with the countless therapy sessions I have been through, there seems to be no exit.
While it does feel like being on a loop, because we do fall back into depressive states, there is hope. I am significantly better than I was a year ago. Don’t get down on yourself. Just keep pushing there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Jesus was a game changer in my life and hopefully He can be one in yours too.
Yeah. Its like a simulation that starts over and over again whenever i fell down into a complete loop of depressive episode. Made me think that theres never a good decision to make and my will to continues on just running thin in each loop. Im holding on though, i might just make it next year and see what'll happen. Til then, keep your heads up pal!
Exactly!! I describe it the same way. You're desperate for air but something holds you underwater and it feels cruel and unfair and you just want to give up
Keep faith we are born to win. We creative from creator god. We are fearless from fearless god. Serve souls from heart. Be kind be honest be truthful. Fear will go away. When you do everything right god said fear not allowed to even touch you. Faith keep us safe.
The reason I don't tell anyone about my depression is because they won't understand. They'll think we are just complaining when it's slowly turning us into an emotionless person and makes us kill ourselves..
For anybody who needs this, as someone who has struggled and still struggles with depression, one thing that helps is finding the small things. It could just be a small action, like moving across your house to sit somewhere else. For me, I make a breakfast that makes me feel just a bit better. Don't expect for things to feel good again instantly, but eventually the small things get bigger and I have found that by slowing down and finding these joys or comforts, life feels more livable. One day at a time❤
@@Batman.131 bein a person wit depression for years n still depressed till dis day 2 yrs later All i can say man is just live in the moment go outside lay down in the grass lookin at the stars at night n wonder off into space it kind of helps a lil bit
Tip for parents: if you think your child is just shy, still go get them checked out. I’ve had social anxiety all my life and never got any treatment and it turned into depression once I got into my later teens
Depression is a really hard illness. I as twelve years old when my moms was diagnosticated with it. I barely remember how the things were in that time; however she usually tell me about the feelings and sensations she had in this period, and exemplifies that teraphy saves her life.
when I was a kid I always thought having depression is all about feeling sad for so long but that's not the case at all, depression for me is like feeling this overwhelming loneliness and it's just making me unmotivated and just want to give up on everything. I just wanna die but don't want to. it's just so complicated and I don't like this feelings. Sometimes I feel bad for feeling this way
When I go through phases like those, I like to think of the happiest points of my life. I keep them in my mind because I know I can feel the same way again, I just have to get through whatever I’m currently going through. I sincerely hope everything works out for you, and if you ever feel overwhelmed, please know that I’m here.
@@eg_bogan2667 unfortunately, not every individual has 'happy points' in their life... I have so many memory issues because my brain decided it's best to block everything. Every memory I retrieved made everything worse for me...
I don't even know if I have depression . I'm not diagnosed and I don't wanna reach out for help . At times I feel empty , like everything is meaningless , and tears won't come out my eyes , I just feel lost or confused . But sometimes I feel happy or excited . With my family or friends , I sometimes forget about the sadness I feel everyday , or sometimes when I get distracted , I feel happiness , I laugh at things I find funny , which confuses me ,, my mind keeps telling me that I'm just faking it , I feel depressed and anxious half the day , and the other half I just feel distracted and happy . I don't know what I'm feeling . It's a constant cycle of feeling empty , numb , sad , anxious , guilty , lost , alone , laziness , tiredness and excitement , laughter , happiness . Everyday feels the same . I feel unmotivated to do things like my homework , projects to school and such , I tell myself that I'll do it later but I know I won't and when I notice the things I was suppose to do , undone , I feel uneasy , like I want to fix it but I just don't have enough motivation to do so . I don't want to die , I don't want to hurt my family and friends . But I just feel so hopeless . Because it never does get better does it ? 2 years ago I had very low self esteem , I had no friends , my relationship with my family was not very good , and I was just alone , a year later I found friends , and an old relative of mine started talking to me again . The sadness I was feeling before started to go away and I didn't even realize it . But now it's starting to come back . But it wasn't like before . Before it was very noticeable , I cried myself to sleep everynight . I wanted to just end it , and that was all I could focus on . But now I just feel so empty . I feel lost . And I feel so anxious everyday . I put an act on when I'm around my family , they don't notice that I feel like this and I don't even realize that I'm doing it . I don't know what's happening to me , I don't know how to fix it because it feels like nothing can . I will probably reach out to someone much later in my life and possibly get better . But when that time comes , it's when everyone around me slowly drifts apart . I'm scared . I don't want things to change , but I want this feeling to go away , but I don't know how to . It's frustrating .
This is exactly my life... I tried to describe it myself but this is the closest thing. Honestly part of my mind realizes that I must seek help and get medication, but the other just wants to give up. The realization what I'd have to go through, how much strength I'd need to overcome it and how much time it would take for me to solve all my problems... makes me give up. Days pass one by one, things keep piling up but I can't make myself do anything to at least start dealing with them. My body wants to live, but my mind just wants to give up and commit suicide simply because it's easier...
Depression isn't something that can really be explained to someone who doesn't have it...neither is anxiety. "Just be happy" isn't the proper answer to someone who is having these very real thoughts and feelings.
Thank you for saying this! It's so true! In a different Ted talk, someone said you wouldn't tell someone with a broken leg to 'walk it off, it's just you'. Similarly, we shouldn't tell someone with depression 'shake it off, you're just in a bad mood'. Depression is very real. Treat it that way.
+Sprinkles of Shelly From what I know, and experienced, you have 2 types of depression, your depression in your teens, the whole growing up thing, that is more linked to suicide and what not, where as adult depression (think 25 years+) tends to 'creep' up on you, then boom one day you don't know why you have it, you can't just get rid of the damn thing either, it's like a shadow that follows you around zapping the enjoyment of life out of you, it zaps everything you use to love to do, and because you start to get in this "ugh, I can't be fucked" attitude it breeds and breeds, then you find it harder and harder, and you don't want to be drugged up either. It's a fucked situation. I've had moments last year where I was happy, I remember that, it felt shockingly new to me.
+Sprinkles of Shelly Sometimes I wish healthy people all got depression, I wish them to suffer what we're suffering right now. Watching them suffer our pains just makes me happy. But .... I'm not a son of satan. I'm son of god
+Sprinkles of Shelly The proper answer is to tune neurotransmitters in such a way, that your behavior is corresponding to "just be happy" pattern most of the time.
I got diagnosed with it recently my psychologist said i've had it since 2021, i hope everyone can find a way out and please know no matter how dark it gets there always will be hope 💖
I’m a Japanese uni student suffering from depression. I’ve been struggling with this for at least 5 years I think. When I realized that I was feeling depressed for the first time, I thought that this is because I was lacking confidence. Then, I started to study English intensively because I believed that being fluent in English could boost my confidence. (FYI, a lot of Japanese people tend to be jealous of fluent English speakers) But in reality, even though a lot of people extol the virtues of my English, I cannot feel confident in myself to this day, and depression still lingers on, which makes me feel like even if I’m not here, everything is normal. Because of this feeling, I’m not motivated to do anything like seeking a job, finding a girlfriend, going somewhere and so on. Indeed, I think it’s better for me to ask for help, but I don’t let anyone know that I’m feeling down. Thank you very much for reading this lengthy comment. Pardon my English>< The video gave me some help. Thanks :) PS: Thank you very much for leaving me a lot of encouraging comments! I didn’t expect many people to react to me. Actually, I was about to cry when reading them 🥺 Off topic, but I’ve decided to go to Canada next year to work and study. Now I’m thinking that I should do something different to grow and bring some changes to my life. I’m sure I will face some setbacks in Canada, but the experience will be engraved on a page of my life and have a significant impact on me. Again, thank you so much, and I hope everyone here will stay positive!
if the making of this comment is an effort, i say this is a perfect one, and im may or may not feel the same as you, but keep the struggle, turn that grindset to your mindset bro.
Very good English and know that it is okay to feel down. You can get out of that, asking for help is not a weakness, it's a way of showing you are brave enough to face it. Good luck ❤
My mother has severe depression. I have no understanding of the pain she goes through everyday and night but I hope to learn so I can care for her better. To everyone with depression, you are strong, I know it. Keep fighting.
My mom also has depression. The secret is to make her go to a doctor or psychologist as soon as possible. My mother took almost a decade to go to a doctor, but when she finally did, her life got so much better! Now (another decade later) she’s excited to start psychotherapy! Hope your mom makes it too
First off, you are amazing for pointing it out and wanting to help. Second, please be there for her. My mom committed suicide January 5th, 2021, and I have lived with the guilt, and relived that day, every single day since then. There are things I wish I would have done, or said, that i didn’t. I feel like just my words could have pushed her through if I chose to say the right ones. So please, please be there for her through this, and even if you don’t understand, all she needs is your love. I hope all gets better.
@@jordanelliott9712 im sorry to hear that happened. i know i can’t even begin to comprehend what you’ve been going through since then, but i want you to know you’re loved, and her spirit will always watch over you and keep you safe. :)
Depression feels like having the desire to do something, while at the same time not wanting to actually do anything. Depression feels like always being stressed but not know what the stressor is or how to make it stop. Depression feels like crushing loneliness while at the same time knowing I'm not alone but not knowing how to not feel alone. Depression feels like being a kid at recess watching everyone play, wishing you could have fun too, knowing that all you need to do is just get up and go play, but for some reason you've forgotten how to move. Depression feels like waking up one day and not wanting to play your favourite game, but not knowing why and not being able to enjoy when you try forcing yourself to play. Depression feels like driving home from the late shift at work with the radio off and the windows up.
Wanting to finish that homework but being to tired to do it, then getting stressed you didn’t do it and blaming yourself until you spiral into a pit of “im worthless why am i alive”
@@mr_valor3903 depression is in your mental aka brain. All the brain needs is special attention to help it become full of light like it was once before. There are tools to get you going. Put your mind in a space that warms your soul. Find a show you grew up watching or a movie. Let your mind focus on a past inner child thriller. This will help the darkness to ease away as the mind reprogram itself back to normal. The more ritual you find to warm your soul. It can even be sitting with a cup of coffee by a stream. Do all things that bring your soul light. It sure did help me out of my depression. I also got a companion animal that helped too. You’ll find your way out of it like I did. Just follow the light from inside your soul. Also don’t be around depressing people, places or any other environment while your mind is reprogramming itself. You don’t want to throw your routine off to getting better. I’m giving you tools that helped me as I waited for this phrase to clear out of my head. Just know you’re not alone and you can do this. Good luck. Just make your inner child smile again and you’ll trigger the depression to leave and the light will come back. 😇sending love & light your way. You got this.
I wanted to open this up to my family.But my family is the reason why I had depression.I'm still depress right now.I do smile alot and was called "The ball of sunshine" in my school.But noone knew I had depression,they just think I had a perfect life.Well,I wish I do.I hope one day I'll be fine and healthy.Hope I get a good therapist too..
been feeling like this from time to time. it's hard when the family don't understand it and thinks that I'm lazy to do studies and they blame me more for not doing anything. sometimes I cry alone at night. feel like I'm living in an endless loop. there's nothing exciting about life.... hope everyone who feels like me will feel better soon ❤️ you're not alone ❤️
I feel you.. just know that you’re not the only one that feels this way. Throughout most of high school and college I always had a hard time with feeling lazy and procrastinating and my parents would be all over me about it.. it wasn’t just with school though, it seems that ever since middle school I’ve always been really lazy to do anything unless it was something I wanted to do.. ever since 5th grade-middle school it seems like I’ve never felt anywhere near as happy as I was as a kid.. idk if it has to do with just my medicine that i started to have to take bc of a seizure i had during 5th grade or just bc of how much social anxiety i started to get ever since i started middle school, or maybe both..ever since then I’ve always had a hard time talking to anyone, even family or friends and would just talk to myself all throughout the day every day. Every time i talk to someone i won’t ever really know what to say, because whenever i try to think about what i want to say my mind just goes completely blank.. this has made it really hard for me to meet new people and make new friends.. i only really had three close friends throughout high school and there were many different times that they would just be complete jerks to me even though i never did anything to them. All i can think about every day is how i don’t have any close friends my age and how hard it is for me to want to go back to the times when me and my friends were close and had good times hanging out. There was nothing i loved doing more than hanging out and doing stuff with my friends which makes my life so depressing because they and other people i went to school with never reach out to me. I always want to ask them to hangout but i always feel that even if they do want to, they’re just doing it because they feel bad for me that i have nobody else to talk to.. its just really hard because its really hard for me to want to open up to anybody even my family and have been starting to lose interest in so many things that used to make me happy.. i’ve never had any thoughts of suicide but it seems like as every day goes by i seem to feel more and more depressed and unhappy with my life even though i have a family that loves me as much as i love them.. sorry for the essay lol
Hi Tristan. I have depression too. I wonder if you take Keppra. That’s the seizure medication that I’ve been taking and it can take make depressed mood worse. I’m wondering if you could ask your doctor to change your medication. That might help ease your depression. I don’t know your situation. So I probably shouldn’t be giving you advice. I hope your symptoms get better.
*I just hate it when people say:* -*"Your just pretending to be depressed"* -*"Your just doing it for the sake of attention"* -*"It's just a phase"* -*"It's coz of that damn phone"* -*"There's nothing like depression"* -*"You are too young to be depressed, you have everything you need"*
@@rogermrogerm happiness and sadness are just plays of mind . For example if you overwork and get yourself injured and then you will not get money because of injury afterwards , then think about spending time with your family or friends dont think about injury or less money .
@@neetasarawade6681 I truly don’t mean any disrespect when I say this, but have you ever had depression before? It’s not something that you can understand without experiencing it, because it really is beyond reason. Depression is similar to a phobia, in the sense that it’s irrational, and even though you KNOW it’s irrational, it doesn’t make it go away. The difference between sadness and depression is that depression doesn’t come from circumstances. A sad person could be stressed about their job, but then get a raise and be happy again. A depressed person is sad regardless of what’s happening to them; they could win the lottery, and nothing would change. It’s always there, wherever you go. Emotions may be just chemicals in your brain, but I don’t believe that makes them any less potent or real.
I was diagnosed with depression at 14, I'm now 32. The only thing I can say to whoever you are reading this is that it does get better. I know somedays you feel worthless and won't want to get out of bed, I know that you practice your smile so others wont notice your pain, and I know at your lowest you've considered the irreversible. But I promise you it does get better. It won't be the same as everyone else's, but you will find some measure of happiness again. I've found these methods have really helped me: (1) Remembering you are in charge of your own mind. I've found when I have negative thoughts I spiral; it's like having a song in your head when you're trying to get to sleep, it just won't stop and can be paralyzing. If this is the case, close your eyes and take deep breaths for 30seconds. Focus on nothing else but your breathing. When your done say "no". Whatever was going through your head your in charge and your not letting it back in. If it comes back repeat and tell it to "go f*** itself". (2) Set Goals. This is difficult to initiate but once you get going you'll be a force to be reckoned with. Begin with setting 1 goal, it may be as simple as getting out of bed, then add another for tomorrow - no one leaps to the moon. This has helped me turn my life around several times. (3) Go out. If you're invited to go out, do it. I know you'd prefer to sit at home by yourself and probably think that even if you do go out you'll not enjoy it, or just sit quietly in the corner. But I've found that if you pretend to be happy, sometimes you'll forget you're pretending. I hope any of the above help, I've seen a lot of comments about depression without anyone offering their coping mechanisms, so here are mine. Remember my friend it can and will get better - I promise.
This hit too close to home :) I do exactly the same thing! For anyone read his comments, this is the way. Wished that I found it earlier, I struggled a lot for the first 6 years before coming up with this
The focusing of attention on the emotionally neutral thing (like breathing) is meditation. Check out Joe Dispenza, for example, for meditation potential. I bet the potential of it will really surprise you.
Jesus Christ these words... I dont know what to say. I am literally crying right now because you describe it just as I am experiencing it. And that is why I will try these methods. I always thought that time will change a lot, even depression but you just confirmed it. You gave me more hope with your comment than my psychotherapist in years... I dont know what to say.... thank you, you have no idea how much you helped me love from Germany
when my depression was really really bad I couldn't understand this video's content, but now I understand it and even that my depression gets better than before.
I wasted 3 years in a college that I really hated . I only got there and endured that torture for 3 consecutive years because of my parents (I got high marks in high school and considered the geniuse nerd of the family). right now I'm just a shadow of who I used to be .. I lost my motive and dont want do anything at all. I also feel guilty for disappointing my parents . damn this life:(((((
+Judy mhmd Why do you force other's expectations onto yourself? I have lots of expectations too, but don't treat it as a do or die thing. Expectations are what others' want from you. More importantly, what do you want? Also, why is your motive to please someone else? At the end of the day, you please someone to make them happy to make you happy (I think). If you're completely unhappy throughout the journey, doesn't that defeat your main goal? Forget about what others think or want for a second and think about what you want. I know depressed people need comfort and encouragement, but if you don't take the first big step forward, you'll be depressed and miserable your whole life. You're not a failure. It doesn't matter if they think you're a failure. Do you think you're a failure? You can't give up. If you fail, you continue working hard. It may be really difficult, but if you give up, you'll keep failing. If you try, at least you have a chance. (Sorry for being so long-winded and boring. This is just the stuff I tell myself whenever I feel down and suicidal. Don't forget that lots of people are depressed, but if you don't try to stop being depressed, you'll stay like that for life instead of returning to the happy days.
Cassidy Mirah It's like you live with me ! Cuz Im really REALLY sick of doing things for others !!! And I also thought about it ! I was like : I've been doing too many things for other people isn't it the time to do things for me ?!!! I know my parents will be disappointed in me especially my father . And that's what Im concerned about the most. This year I decided to apply for a different major . I'll start all over again ! It's painful to see your classmates progressing throughout the years while you are stuck in one place since day one but what's more painful is being an ordinary person ! I cant take that I wanna love what I study and be good at it and give 100% everyday not becuz I have to but because I like it and I enjoy it . You are right I have to TRY! I cant be like this forever !
Cemil PCMR .hi I had similar problems ...I over came that... I found out lot of ideas to over come depression... if you want I can share it with you and help you out
By far the hardest part about dealing with depression and anxiety has been when people compare it to their own experiences. It gets so tiring and exhausting as someone living in a first world country that "people's lives are so much worse than yours", and "I really don't think your life is that hard right now". If people in your life tell you these things, do no listen. Of course my life circumstances are different compare to those living in third world countries, but that doesn't make getting up in the morning any easier. Having depression and anxiety together is like fearing constantly that you're destroying your life and having no energy or motivation to do anything about it. I would tell people suffering from depression to do whatever you think is necessary to get better. If that's to travel, seek professional help, take a semester off school or drop out entirely, do it. You have to look out for yourself, and your own body will often tell you what it needs. Sometimes, you just have to listen to it to take the first step in the right direction.
What you said is completely true, and your advice is kind and a real help for many people, but some don't have opportunity to do as they like. I say this because I'm in it, but I can't really escape it. But what you said is true ! I agree, If someone is depressed and have the possibility to do any of this it would be amazing because I think it really helps. I'd like to add another advice to it. I have start hypnoses therapy recently and something that help me is to think about something else than the fact that I'm not feeling well. It's hard at the beginning, but with time it helps. Hope it helps some people in need, and I give a lot of support and love to everyone ! ^^
"Having a house, parents and respect from people doesn't mean you have to live 'happy' as everyone expects. Depression is not optional, if it was, a lot of people wouldn't be like this. Don't wish us a good day, week, or year; it doesn't help."
Hear me out.... What do you call this... Everytime i feel. Nothing nothing... But then im going out with my girlfriend then im starting to feel smth but dunno what actually sometimes i get mad. Not at her not at me so wtf is this..?
@@zxjjs2837 I think it’s quite normal, but idk about the mad part, after I hangout with my gf I end up feeling empty, it’s probably because your emotions spiked when you was with her, and when you’re alone they calm down, and it feels like nothing. Some good advice is, don’t let your gf be everything, find a new hobby, or a goal or talent you want to learn. She won’t be there with you all the time, and there’s a chance she might leave.
@@zxjjs2837 i never had a gf but i think the guy here is right, while having someone is great you must remember that unfortunatly you two are two different people, each with their own emotions, she can be there for you and help you but she cannot give you happiness, it something more personal that you have to achieve by yourself, also having you well being completly dependent on your gf does not seem a good idea
kaykay US and Canada: text 741741 UK: text 85258 | Ireland: text 50808 you must repent and turn from sin . And confess you’re a sinner in need of saving . And confess with your mouth and believe in your heart that Jesus is Lord and God raised him from the dead 3 days later . And ask for forgiveness and build a relationship with him , by reading the Bible and worship etc . Always repent when you sin or try . AND HAVE FAITH . BUT EVERYTHING BAD WILL NOT GO AWAY Maybe it will maybe not
1. Try not to think about anything (COMPLETE ABSENCE OF MIND) for ten minutes. 2. If this is hard do 10 pushups and now try not to think anything. Since you have depreciated your energy your brain will not think that fast and you can make it much easier not to think about anything. 3.After 10 minutes focus on onlh posiive things .If you do it correctly, it might be hard for you to thing about negative things since you have shutdown your mind for sonetime. Know think aboug your dreams and continue. 4.If you cant do what you want then you will This might seem absurd but hey there is no loss. Hope you get well soon mate. Respect You csn try taking a shoeer before doing this and it might be more effective. (I am starting to think i have mad psychology skills of maybe its just that wuerantine philosophy and psychology boost)
I have depression. I feel worthless I hate myself I always sad I hide my feelings I'm ashamed of myself I cry every night I lose interest everyday I eat way too much Yet i am skinny I wanna feel something other than sadness.
I just watched this video out of curiosity of what depression is… since I’ve seen many subjects about suiciding people due to it. Stay strong everyone, stay strong.
everyday is just constantly trying to find a reason to live, hoping you’ll find one before you get tired of looking

I still haven’t found one.
Yo you need help.
I have a reason to live... I wnted to make my family succes and after that I could rest now... Been thinking that since child... Ive been like this for awhile I hate myslef tbh When Im growing up i started to hate myself and i was haooy back then But when Things got Bad my Brain wont stop thinking Stuff Thats bad for me and Also I keep wanting to die but I dont also want to cuz Im still not Doing The reason I want to live...
I just hate that feeling when everyone else is having fun and your alone depressed with no one to talk with
Well i feel it every time in school 🙃
This, just this for at least the past month
Yup I feel the same way
I understand completely. The feeling of loneliness is unbearable when you need someone to be there for you in your time of need.
Friends should know when you’re upset and not leave you behind to go do something fun without you..but they won’t know that you’re not okay unless you tell them. Not *everyone* understands when you’re upset, some people are blind to knowing people’s actual *true* emotions even if they’re a close friend that you care dearly about.
If you need me I’m here for you.
This is my me at my school
Worst thing about depression is lost interest in things that you used to love aka anhedonia. You just wake up on the morning and You have nothing to hang onto ....
You just sort of... exist. Like a zombie. Yeah. Things like moving a hand become so, so hard.
I have a friend who sometimes forgets to breathe.
I ve been like that for the past week
Exactly......
Try years. Its horrible
true mate
The scariest thing is that feeling of emptiness and numbness. I remember wanting to feel something, anything, even if it meant that I had to feel the saddest. The mere recall makes me shiver. That was scary and that was when I realised that sadness, devastation, every negative emotion is better than not feeling emotions at all.
Love to everyone. It's hard to push through but know that you're the most precious thing in the world. Live for yourself. Don't give up. You're so strong for clicking on this video, learning about it ands still breathing. YOU ARE STRONG AND VERY AMAZING. Sending love and hope and prayers for you to get outta depression soon. ❤️

Yes I know that feeling , just wanting sonething to happen good or bad so you can just feel
I don't know who originally said this, but for me, it was extremely accurate:
"Depression feels like badly wanting to go home, even when you are already there".

Oh my god this made me cry. I- can't comprehend how much I relate to that.
Lol
You know what makes it worse? The fact that you're not able to say "I'm depressed" without feeling guilt or certainty because in today's society it's a "trend". You can't openly talk about it with someone becuase you haven't experienced this thing and you have this status and so forth. Being told "just cheer up there's so much to be happy about" is like telling a person with asthma "just breathe, there's so much air"
Same with panic attacks. I’ve never told anyone outside my family and therapist because that reduces my credibility. I don’t think that most people get why I don’t show fear

I have been depressed for a long time, but after taking shrooms few months ago, l feel much happier and highly motivated and my ADHD gone , lost a ton of anxiousness and had a few epiphanies about how I should live my life. I decided to buy an ounce for backup, but haven’t yet felt the need to take any more since then.
I have autism, I was diagnosed with it when I was 15. I tried shrooms and it made me function so much better.

Your life is so good.". I remember telling my therapist "I am tired of everything, but I don't know what everything is.".

YOOOOO i was just thinking that bahahahah that so true man
Yeah ikr
A thing I’ve experienced, is feeling emotionless. Many people think depression is about being sad, but most of the time you just don’t feel anything. For a good amount of time, the only emotion I felt was anger. Because I was angry at myself for not feeling any emotion like sadness, happiness, etc.
Yeah same. I think this is type of depression is the worst in my opinion and feels like it won’t ever go away. Honestly, I think it’s more so genetic than anything. I used to feel joy, love, pleasure etc. when I was in highschool but now after highschool I don’t fee any of those feelings anymore. No excitement, no pleasure, no interest to do anything. I purely do the things I do with my friends because I know it’s what I’m supposed to do to feel human. But even being people causes no joy or pleasure, only experiencing anxiety or fear for no reason.
I’ve been in that same mindset and on a rare basis get mad over the fact I can’t feel those emotions anymore but, I found that doing that only makes it worse so it’s better to just deal it with for now and hope that in the future with the advancements of technology, science and medicine that we’ll one day find a cure or some type of relief for this type of depression.
One thing that I believe has helped so far is listening to different types of music and singing along with them. My body, for some reason, can still remember the emotions I’ve felt in the past so, my thinking is that by listening to different types of music with different genres will help me “spark” those emotions in my body again. Start of with sad and depressed music but make sure to slowly and surely move upwards to exciting music and love songs.

please read the Quran, it changed my life
Best way I can describe depression (at least for me, or how I felt when I was depressed) is just the feeling of tiredness. Tired of dealing with people, tired of waking up and just tired of living to be more specific. You just want to keep sleeping and never wake up. You just don’t have the energy to keep going or to push through, even though you want to live. So it just feels like a constant battle that never ends, and hopefully it gets easier with time but you gotta push through, you gotta
I hope success and happinness for you,take care of yourself
I just don't care. If someone says something about me I say ok. I don't waste my time explaining or caring. Like I don't have that energy to care and that is begining to expand into all areas of my life. My answer to everything is ok.
I feel that way but I didn't assume it to be depressed, instead I just feel lazy
@Josh E knock it off with that mumbo jumbo. You worship a false idol.

I always thought of myself as strong physically and mentally. Than 4 years ago I went through a bout of depression for a year. I don't wish that experience on anyone. What I was told by two of my cousins who are combat veterans and had PTSD was to throw away the medication or at least limit it and just do what you like doing, live life. That's what I did and slowly things got better. Don't give up and you will be just fine trust me. Good luck.
It's true, we're all products of causal influences; none of us got to choose anything about ourselves, our bodies, brains, genes, chemical balances, etc..
You can choose the influences to make things better though.
U really need to hear that? Ye sure, so u can blame everything u lack doing everyday on this "depression" and not feel guilty for it. Sheesh. These people need to wake up.
I have watched this video so many times in the past few months because it makes me feel like someone understands how I feel. It is like a checklist of what I go through every day, people don't seem to understand that is not sadness, particularly those I care about the most.
It just strikes so well when someone understands. When we wake up everyday, it is always like "back to sadness"
The worst is when you know you’re suffering but can’t afford to get help so you get by by feeling numb and pretending
Guys i had depression due to work stress and I have survived it by my own without any medication or medical help. This is for the people here who are having depression, running thoughts, sleepless nights, bad dreams and anxiety. Try 'mantra meditation' by chanting 'omm namah shivay'. You can see TH-cam videos about chanting 'om namah shivay' 108 times etc (there are many videos regarding this) and follow the tone and tempo. Then sit in a relaxed meditation pose and chant it in very low tone so that you can feel your voice vibration in the throat, chest and brain. Focus on vibration and feel it. Do it 10-15 mins (you can do more time if want) every day before sleeping or at dawn (or many times you want). you can feel peacefulness in brain and feel that every running thoughts and bad thoughts are tearing out from brain. You can feel the change after within 4-5 days and within one month you can remove the depression completely (at least in my case). PS: I am not spreading any religion here. So if you are comfortable with it, then follow it. I come to know about it from internet also. You can dm me on Instagram @sourabhpal03 if it is helpful for you. I will glad to know that I can change someone's life. Thank you :)

@@synx4182 nah bro you're just making people depressed because you exist
@@synx4182 you're mostly right, but the major part isn't pretending and it's very real. I think it's because they don't have anything to complain about so life get's boring and you fall into it little by little. I think most depressed people aren't the ones with the hardest lives and the biggest struggles. These people do not have time to be depressed, mostly.
I'm 19 and I have a normal life, not poor nor rich, I have friends and a family that loves me, a girlfriend that loves me and that I love. But i'm diagnosed as depressed. Last year I spent in a foreign country far from my family and friends, locked down, I spent 24h/24 in my bed didn't attend university and lost my body shape my face had red marks on it that slowly got away after a while (it was apparently because of stress my doctor said). The only reason I left the house was to buy food. And the food I bought wasn't the best. I found myself in a bad situation out of nowhere. Today I'm better but I haven't fully recovered. I have no reason to still be depressed yet I am. I don't even know why i'm saying all this but whatever just what passes through my mind.
indeed, a void that seems to be encompassing everything connected to life itself
I'm not suicidal I just feel an overwhelming sense of hopelessness and dread, I feel hollow and like I have no control over my own life
Just remember that i love you brother i dont know you but i care for u and love u pls stay strong for ur family that loves you

Like the video said if you have 5 or more of these symptoms it's depression. Suicidal thoughts are just one of them. If it isn't depression but you still feel terrible the label shouldn't matter anyways. Consider talking to someone you know or trust, and if it is really bad get therapy. The pandemic has made a lot of us felt depressed so what you're going through is normal.

th-cam.com/video/OFKjOcFgMSI/w-d-xo.html ...
Once, I believe I was depressed, during my teenager years to be precise. It was a dark period of my life. I couldn't muster up the strength to do anything worthwhile. Studying was impossible. But the worst part, I think, was the persistant flow of negative thoughts. It was overwhelming and destroyed my confidence in seconds.
At the moment, I'm in a good place in life. Through therapy, I gained a lot of control of the flow of my thoughts : I don't control my thoughts, but I am able to dismiss the negative, argue against it and, eventually, have positive opinions about myself and what I do.
“I didn't want to wake up. I was having a much better time asleep. And that's really sad. It was almost like a reverse nightmare, like when you wake up from a nightmare you're so relieved. I woke up into a nightmare.”
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. 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! th-cam.com/video/EXQGTInPpZU/w-d-xo.html
"Come to me all you who are weary and burdened and I will give you rest"
1. Try not to think about anything (COMPLETE ABSENCE OF MIND) for ten minutes.
2. If this is hard do 10 pushups and now try not to think anything. Since you have depreciated your energy your brain will not think that fast and you can make it much easier not to think about anything.
3.After 10 minutes focus on onlh posiive things .If you do it correctly, it might be hard for you to thing about negative things since you have shutdown your mind for sonetime. Know think aboug your dreams and continue.
4.If you cant do what you want then you will
This might seem absurd but hey there is no loss.
Hope you get well soon mate.

You csn try taking a shoeer before doing this and it might be more effective.

@@aaryapawar1158 well, what I mean is that (to me,) when I was in a state of depression, it was very painful, nobody understood me, and to me, pain was something that would eventually stop. however when I was in that stage it didn't. it never did. I felt like I had to end myself in order to stop this pain. but I was also terrified of doing that. I wanted to enjoy my life, but depression would not let me. just like the words of Freddie mercury, I don't want to die, I just wish I was never born. you're right, it killed the faith in me. I used to have faith in myself, but several experiences made me lose the faith I had.
Depression is when you don’t feel feelings besides anger and sadness . Your numb to everything around you , you don’t feel joy in any activities, you don’t feel love being around people you love, it feels like even when I smile and are “happy” it’s all fake . I fake emotions because it’s easier to do that then ask for help and be labeled weak . Depression is being so dead inside that the thought of suicide isn’t so bad, it actually sounds better then being alive in a constant loop of self pity, misery , self hate . You get labeled lazy because you don’t do anything and you feel like a burden on everybody around you . You can’t get it out of your head , doesn’t matter how hard you try . “Happiness” , yea I miss that , I feel like I’ve been stuck In this for so long I forget what it feels like to be genuinely happy...
Edit:it’s never to late to get help! Working on yourself is really helping me, self love is very important. Your life is valuable and you are loved.

just because it has 20mil views doesn't mean that the people watching it are depressed. It's probably the fact that they are interested in the topic and want to learn more about it, just like i am
@@dieselgeezer18 I mean look at the comments, alot of people are mostly talking about their own depression or poetisizing it. Unfortunately I think depression is one of those things that just need to be taught in school or something because the stigma is so strong, that to teach a individual person who is most likely close minded isn't going to be of their own will. It's like with trans identities or other lgbtq+ identities. Most people unfamiliar with it don't want to be educated unless their heart is still open to it, so imo it has to be taught at an age where you start meeting new and more people. So that we don't end up with more hate crimes like we have in the past.

It's like I'm not even living for myself, but just living for my family because the thought of knowing that my parents would get very devastated when I'm gone is the only thing that is anchoring me to this world. Maybe, this explained why I've been feeling like I don't have any goals in my life or things that I'd like to achieve. Maybe, it's the feeling of what good having dreams or goals do anyway if you're not going to live long enough to make them come true.

I've always had This imaginary picture of my future self. Later I realised that my life is diverting in another route, I am not afraid of taking that route but I'm afraid that the picture i have always remembered will stick with me as another person who i imagine everything I want in my life as and do absolutely nothing. I have some imaginary sides of mine and I cannot satisfy any of them . I know there is something wrong in my head so if my imaginary future self becomes my present copy of mine I swear I will go insane because that's how thoughtfully I have created a future self.
That's what I think too
My god, you just described me to perfection. I feel like I'm just waiting for things to become too terrible to bear as I age and become even more lonely until I'm free to finally let myself go
Depression , is losing the will to literally do anything .
Not willing to sleep nor stay awake.
Not willing to eat nor starve.
Not willing to live or die , you don’t want to do anything but simply stop existing .
You lose the will , the love , and hope you have for others . You get melancholic slowly , the more you want to get out of it , the more it sucks you in.
If you ever go through it , please , instead of cutting or crying , try out getting help .
There is no help .... To whom i could seek for help are the reason for depression .... Btw i reaally agree with your words
oK

I've had very intense depression my first 3 years of high school. It was so bad I made no effort to make any new friends, constantly thought of suicide and came up with a plan with the time and date I would do it. I actually almost died from my first suicide attempt at 14. I had a few more after that but managed to pull myself out from ending my life again. I'm now 17, a senior in high school and still struggle but I try to stay positive as much as I can. I've been on antidepressants before and had therapy but it was so bad those 2 years, neither one of them helped. Just know that the only person who can help you stay afloat is yourself. You have to learn how to swim, otherwise you'll drown and go deeper and deeper into depression. I try my best to distract myself and focus on school but it's hard when my depression takes over my whole mindset and leaves me feeling so hopeless.
Sally May how are you today?
Sally May I hope you are swimming well now! I know its hard, just remember to keep your head above the water!
Sally May .hi I had similar problems ...I over came that... I found out lot of ideas to over come depression... if you want I can share it with you and help you out
Whenever u feel like you're getting bad, try and distract yourself with things that you love or maybe exercise. Just do anything that will keep you from thinking too much.
I’m only ten but same🤧
I’ve heard this from a friend who was diagnosed with depression and anxiety, she said depression is like living in a body that wants to live but a mind that wants to die. She’s now surrounded by people who love her to bits and I couldn’t be more proud of her.

Yes, dr.sporessss I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.

Been struggling with it almost 4 years. Can't even remember how is it like to have a happy or just a normal life. It's like a demon in my head which raises only negative stuff, eats my energy. Wish i could go back in time to just get the old feelings and the view of life.
Well... As I always say to my friend. Keep your chin up someone always will love you and you always have something to live for. Life is like lemonade, if it's too sour, add some sugar
At least you have a wish to get your positive feelings back, that's a good sign. Do you feel like nothing excites you, nothing seems new..? Like something is always pushing you to the ground? Only when we were kids, discovering life, those were the times when we would appreciate little things, and those little things would make us happy.

I could remember several years ago I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Was actually addicted to cigarettes and alcohol. Not until my wife recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 11 years totally clean. Shrooms are God- sents.

YES very sure of Dr.raymycology. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
Ive done shrooms last month in my house. It taught me how severely traumatized I was from alcohol. I healed from many mental traumas from my past and was able to forgive, let go. Shrooms to me is a remedy not a vice. I even felt more refreshed the morning after. So no hangovers. No depression mood for days. No anxiety.l now have a more calm mind

I had 8 of those symptoms back then everyone said "that's not depression you were just sad" I would cry in secret but never shed a single tear in front of them. Then later i stopped talking to anyone. Not a single word left my mouth for 5 days when I was too much into it. After i got out of that environment and came back home to my family things got better. Sometimes you just need to be around people who love you❤ that helps a lot. They somehow gave me hope.

Sahana Roy I totally get you. I’m scared to tell my family. If I tell my friends, they’ll just claim they’re depressed too. I haven’t been professionally diagnosed with depression, but, sometimes I fantasize (literally FANTASIZE) about my death which I don’t know is really weird, psychotic, or is just really weird lol. I’ve been hiding dangerous objects under my bed, and, just recently, my mom got me a counselor because she thinks there’s something wrong with my mental health. I don’t like my counselor, I think she’s kind of mean, and, anyway, I’ve found myself not even wanting to talk to people anymore so that could be part of it. I don’t know if things are going to get better or worse. I think I need help, but I don’t want help. I feel like at this point, the only people I can talk to are amazing people like you, who don’t joke around about this, and make such relatable and heartwarming comments. That’s why I came here :)

I think the best way to overcome the sadness is accept all the things happen to you, even negative thoughts. For the reason, I had some experiences related to depresssion, and I chose try to escaped from it. It took a very long time I realized I was not happy with my life. Then I learn how to accept with my real emotion and respect all of that. The result is I feel better, and my thoughts is more relieve. I used this way to give advice for my friend and she said that she become more comfortable with her life.
Therefore, one of the biggest lesson I have learn in my life is love myself positive slowly 😊❤
When you’re depressed but you feel like you shouldn’t feel as depressed as somebody who has it much worse and feeling depressed doesn’t change anything so you can’t even feel depressed with your depression. So you just feel frustrated and angry at feeling sad. But also still depressed.

“Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem.” Best definition ever heard, TYVM.
unless it keeps coming back, then its a permanent solution to a temporary but reoccurring problem. if i was to describe it, it'd be like moving away because badgers keep coming in your back garden during the winter.
Depression is incredibly persistent for a so called temporary problem though

Hi!
Jesus Christ healed me from depression. I know He can do the same for you. Please come to Jesus. He died for your sins on a cross. Please repent of your sins and come to Him. "Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest." Matthew 28:11

1. Try not to think about anything (COMPLETE ABSENCE OF MIND) for ten minutes.
2. If this is hard do 10 pushups and now try not to think anything. Since you have depreciated your energy your brain will not think that fast and you can make it much easier not to think about anything.
3.After 10 minutes focus on onlh posiive things .If you do it correctly, it might be hard for you to thing about negative things since you have shutdown your mind for sonetime. Know think aboug your dreams and continue.
4.If you cant do what you want then you will
This might seem absurd but hey there is no loss.

The voice the animation the script everything is just so great..
From my personal experience: You want to change your life for the better, but it's as though you're never ready for it because as you try to change, depression will slowly creep back and eat you up again. This process can take up to years and always ends up in a loop, and even with the countless therapy sessions I have been through, there seems to be no exit.
I’ve never heard somebody say this before, but it’s true.
While it does feel like being on a loop, because we do fall back into depressive states, there is hope. I am significantly better than I was a year ago. Don’t get down on yourself. Just keep pushing there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Jesus was a game changer in my life and hopefully He can be one in yours too.
Yeah. Its like a simulation that starts over and over again whenever i fell down into a complete loop of depressive episode. Made me think that theres never a good decision to make and my will to continues on just running thin in each loop. Im holding on though, i might just make it next year and see what'll happen. Til then, keep your heads up pal!

For anybody who needs this, as someone who has struggled and still struggles with depression, one thing that helps is finding the small things. It could just be a small action, like moving across your house to sit somewhere else. For me, I make a breakfast that makes me feel just a bit better. Don't expect for things to feel good again instantly, but eventually the small things get bigger and I have found that by slowing down and finding these joys or comforts, life feels more livable. One day at a time❤

when I was a kid I always thought having depression is all about feeling sad for so long but that's not the case at all, depression for me is like feeling this overwhelming loneliness and it's just making me unmotivated and just want to give up on everything. I just wanna die but don't want to. it's just so complicated and I don't like this feelings. Sometimes I feel bad for feeling this way

I know it really well
I don't even know if I have depression . I'm not diagnosed and I don't wanna reach out for help . At times I feel empty , like everything is meaningless , and tears won't come out my eyes , I just feel lost or confused . But sometimes I feel happy or excited . With my family or friends , I sometimes forget about the sadness I feel everyday , or sometimes when I get distracted , I feel happiness , I laugh at things I find funny , which confuses me ,, my mind keeps telling me that I'm just faking it , I feel depressed and anxious half the day , and the other half I just feel distracted and happy . I don't know what I'm feeling . It's a constant cycle of feeling empty , numb , sad , anxious , guilty , lost , alone , laziness , tiredness and excitement , laughter , happiness . Everyday feels the same . I feel unmotivated to do things like my homework , projects to school and such , I tell myself that I'll do it later but I know I won't and when I notice the things I was suppose to do , undone , I feel uneasy , like I want to fix it but I just don't have enough motivation to do so . I don't want to die , I don't want to hurt my family and friends . But I just feel so hopeless . Because it never does get better does it ? 2 years ago I had very low self esteem , I had no friends , my relationship with my family was not very good , and I was just alone , a year later I found friends , and an old relative of mine started talking to me again . The sadness I was feeling before started to go away and I didn't even realize it . But now it's starting to come back . But it wasn't like before . Before it was very noticeable , I cried myself to sleep everynight . I wanted to just end it , and that was all I could focus on . But now I just feel so empty . I feel lost . And I feel so anxious everyday . I put an act on when I'm around my family , they don't notice that I feel like this and I don't even realize that I'm doing it . I don't know what's happening to me , I don't know how to fix it because it feels like nothing can . I will probably reach out to someone much later in my life and possibly get better . But when that time comes , it's when everyone around me slowly drifts apart . I'm scared . I don't want things to change , but I want this feeling to go away , but I don't know how to . It's frustrating .
This is exactly my life... I tried to describe it myself but this is the closest thing. Honestly part of my mind realizes that I must seek help and get medication, but the other just wants to give up. The realization what I'd have to go through, how much strength I'd need to overcome it and how much time it would take for me to solve all my problems... makes me give up. Days pass one by one, things keep piling up but I can't make myself do anything to at least start dealing with them. My body wants to live, but my mind just wants to give up and commit suicide simply because it's easier...
Oh yes same guys

Depression isn't something that can really be explained to someone who doesn't have it...neither is anxiety. "Just be happy" isn't the proper answer to someone who is having these very real thoughts and feelings.
Thank you for saying this! It's so true! In a different Ted talk, someone said you wouldn't tell someone with a broken leg to 'walk it off, it's just you'. Similarly, we shouldn't tell someone with depression 'shake it off, you're just in a bad mood'. Depression is very real. Treat it that way.
+Sprinkles of Shelly From what I know, and experienced, you have 2 types of depression, your depression in your teens, the whole growing up thing, that is more linked to suicide and what not, where as adult depression (think 25 years+) tends to 'creep' up on you, then boom one day you don't know why you have it, you can't just get rid of the damn thing either, it's like a shadow that follows you around zapping the enjoyment of life out of you, it zaps everything you use to love to do, and because you start to get in this "ugh, I can't be fucked" attitude it breeds and breeds, then you find it harder and harder, and you don't want to be drugged up either. It's a fucked situation.
I've had moments last year where I was happy, I remember that, it felt shockingly new to me.
i have both of them and it is torture.like i don't feel urge to do something but i regret and feel anxious about it.and nobody takes me seriously.
+Sprinkles of Shelly Sometimes I wish healthy people all got depression, I wish them to suffer what we're suffering right now. Watching them suffer our pains just makes me happy. But .... I'm not a son of satan. I'm son of god
+Sprinkles of Shelly The proper answer is to tune neurotransmitters in such a way, that your behavior is corresponding to "just be happy" pattern most of the time.
I got diagnosed with it recently my psychologist said i've had it since 2021, i hope everyone can find a way out and please know no matter how dark it gets there always will be hope 💖

I’m a Japanese uni student suffering from depression. I’ve been struggling with this for at least 5 years I think. When I realized that I was feeling depressed for the first time, I thought that this is because I was lacking confidence. Then, I started to study English intensively because I believed that being fluent in English could boost my confidence. (FYI, a lot of Japanese people tend to be jealous of fluent English speakers) But in reality, even though a lot of people extol the virtues of my English, I cannot feel confident in myself to this day, and depression still lingers on, which makes me feel like even if I’m not here, everything is normal. Because of this feeling, I’m not motivated to do anything like seeking a job, finding a girlfriend, going somewhere and so on. Indeed, I think it’s better for me to ask for help, but I don’t let anyone know that I’m feeling down.
Thank you very much for reading this lengthy comment. Pardon my English><
The video gave me some help. Thanks :)
PS: Thank you very much for leaving me a lot of encouraging comments! I didn’t expect many people to react to me. Actually, I was about to cry when reading them 🥺
Off topic, but I’ve decided to go to Canada next year to work and study. Now I’m thinking that I should do something different to grow and bring some changes to my life. I’m sure I will face some setbacks in Canada, but the experience will be engraved on a page of my life and have a significant impact on me. Again, thank you so much, and I hope everyone here will stay positive!
I can relate. I thought learning English would help somehow. Alas I still have no reason to go. I even picked up some books on psychology
That is great that this video might help you. Hope you get through this. Remember, never give up
if the making of this comment is an effort, i say this is a perfect one, and im may or may not feel the same as you, but keep the struggle, turn that grindset to your mindset bro.

i hope your mother feels better soon, my prayers go out to you both. have an amazing day/evening ❤️
My mom also has depression. The secret is to make her go to a doctor or psychologist as soon as possible. My mother took almost a decade to go to a doctor, but when she finally did, her life got so much better! Now (another decade later) she’s excited to start psychotherapy! Hope your mom makes it too
First off, you are amazing for pointing it out and wanting to help. Second, please be there for her. My mom committed suicide January 5th, 2021, and I have lived with the guilt, and relived that day, every single day since then. There are things I wish I would have done, or said, that i didn’t. I feel like just my words could have pushed her through if I chose to say the right ones. So please, please be there for her through this, and even if you don’t understand, all she needs is your love. I hope all gets better.

Depression feels like having the desire to do something, while at the same time not wanting to actually do anything. Depression feels like always being stressed but not know what the stressor is or how to make it stop. Depression feels like crushing loneliness while at the same time knowing I'm not alone but not knowing how to not feel alone. Depression feels like being a kid at recess watching everyone play, wishing you could have fun too, knowing that all you need to do is just get up and go play, but for some reason you've forgotten how to move. Depression feels like waking up one day and not wanting to play your favourite game, but not knowing why and not being able to enjoy when you try forcing yourself to play. Depression feels like driving home from the late shift at work with the radio off and the windows up.
Wanting to finish that homework but being to tired to do it, then getting stressed you didn’t do it and blaming yourself until you spiral into a pit of “im worthless why am i alive”

@@mr_valor3903 depression is in your mental aka brain. All the brain needs is special attention to help it become full of light like it was once before. There are tools to get you going. Put your mind in a space that warms your soul. Find a show you grew up watching or a movie. Let your mind focus on a past inner child thriller. This will help the darkness to ease away as the mind reprogram itself back to normal. The more ritual you find to warm your soul. It can even be sitting with a cup of coffee by a stream. Do all things that bring your soul light. It sure did help me out of my depression. I also got a companion animal that helped too. You’ll find your way out of it like I did. Just follow the light from inside your soul. Also don’t be around depressing people, places or any other environment while your mind is reprogramming itself. You don’t want to throw your routine off to getting better. I’m giving you tools that helped me as I waited for this phrase to clear out of my head. Just know you’re not alone and you can do this. Good luck. Just make your inner child smile again and you’ll trigger the depression to leave and the light will come back. 😇sending love & light your way. You got this.
I wanted to open this up to my family.But my family is the reason why I had depression.I'm still depress right now.I do smile alot and was called "The ball of sunshine" in my school.But noone knew I had depression,they just think I had a perfect life.Well,I wish I do.I hope one day I'll be fine and healthy.Hope I get a good therapist too..
been feeling like this from time to time. it's hard when the family don't understand it and thinks that I'm lazy to do studies and they blame me more for not doing anything. sometimes I cry alone at night. feel like I'm living in an endless loop. there's nothing exciting about life.... hope everyone who feels like me will feel better soon ❤️ you're not alone ❤️
I feel you.. just know that you’re not the only one that feels this way. Throughout most of high school and college I always had a hard time with feeling lazy and procrastinating and my parents would be all over me about it.. it wasn’t just with school though, it seems that ever since middle school I’ve always been really lazy to do anything unless it was something I wanted to do.. ever since 5th grade-middle school it seems like I’ve never felt anywhere near as happy as I was as a kid.. idk if it has to do with just my medicine that i started to have to take bc of a seizure i had during 5th grade or just bc of how much social anxiety i started to get ever since i started middle school, or maybe both..ever since then I’ve always had a hard time talking to anyone, even family or friends and would just talk to myself all throughout the day every day. Every time i talk to someone i won’t ever really know what to say, because whenever i try to think about what i want to say my mind just goes completely blank.. this has made it really hard for me to meet new people and make new friends.. i only really had three close friends throughout high school and there were many different times that they would just be complete jerks to me even though i never did anything to them. All i can think about every day is how i don’t have any close friends my age and how hard it is for me to want to go back to the times when me and my friends were close and had good times hanging out. There was nothing i loved doing more than hanging out and doing stuff with my friends which makes my life so depressing because they and other people i went to school with never reach out to me. I always want to ask them to hangout but i always feel that even if they do want to, they’re just doing it because they feel bad for me that i have nobody else to talk to.. its just really hard because its really hard for me to want to open up to anybody even my family and have been starting to lose interest in so many things that used to make me happy.. i’ve never had any thoughts of suicide but it seems like as every day goes by i seem to feel more and more depressed and unhappy with my life even though i have a family that loves me as much as i love them.. sorry for the essay lol

@@neetasarawade6681 don't do philosphy here please
Get a diagnosis and then talk
@@neetasarawade6681 I truly don’t mean any disrespect when I say this, but have you ever had depression before? It’s not something that you can understand without experiencing it, because it really is beyond reason. Depression is similar to a phobia, in the sense that it’s irrational, and even though you KNOW it’s irrational, it doesn’t make it go away.
The difference between sadness and depression is that depression doesn’t come from circumstances. A sad person could be stressed about their job, but then get a raise and be happy again. A depressed person is sad regardless of what’s happening to them; they could win the lottery, and nothing would change. It’s always there, wherever you go.
Emotions may be just chemicals in your brain, but I don’t believe that makes them any less potent or real.
I was diagnosed with depression at 14, I'm now 32. The only thing I can say to whoever you are reading this is that it does get better. I know somedays you feel worthless and won't want to get out of bed, I know that you practice your smile so others wont notice your pain, and I know at your lowest you've considered the irreversible. But I promise you it does get better.
It won't be the same as everyone else's, but you will find some measure of happiness again. I've found these methods have really helped me: (1) Remembering you are in charge of your own mind. I've found when I have negative thoughts I spiral; it's like having a song in your head when you're trying to get to sleep, it just won't stop and can be paralyzing. If this is the case, close your eyes and take deep breaths for 30seconds. Focus on nothing else but your breathing. When your done say "no". Whatever was going through your head your in charge and your not letting it back in. If it comes back repeat and tell it to "go f*** itself". (2) Set Goals. This is difficult to initiate but once you get going you'll be a force to be reckoned with. Begin with setting 1 goal, it may be as simple as getting out of bed, then add another for tomorrow - no one leaps to the moon. This has helped me turn my life around several times. (3) Go out. If you're invited to go out, do it. I know you'd prefer to sit at home by yourself and probably think that even if you do go out you'll not enjoy it, or just sit quietly in the corner. But I've found that if you pretend to be happy, sometimes you'll forget you're pretending.
I hope any of the above help, I've seen a lot of comments about depression without anyone offering their coping mechanisms, so here are mine. Remember my friend it can and will get better - I promise.
This hit too close to home :)
I do exactly the same thing! For anyone read his comments, this is the way.
Wished that I found it earlier, I struggled a lot for the first 6 years before coming up with this
The focusing of attention on the emotionally neutral thing (like breathing) is meditation. Check out Joe Dispenza, for example, for meditation potential. I bet the potential of it will really surprise you.
thank you.

when my depression was really really bad I couldn't understand this video's content, but now I understand it and even that my depression gets better than before.
I wasted 3 years in a college that I really hated . I only got there and endured that torture for 3 consecutive years because of my parents (I got high marks in high school and considered the geniuse nerd of the family). right now I'm just a shadow of who I used to be .. I lost my motive and dont want do anything at all. I also feel guilty for disappointing my parents . damn this life:(((((
Me too, I can't stand going but I also don't want people to think I'm failure.
Meatwad Diaperhead I tried to start over in a different college but I couldnt Cuz I dont want others to think Im stupid or lazy :(
Very similar in here, I can fucking totally understand you. I send you a lot of compassion.
+Judy mhmd Why do you force other's expectations onto yourself? I have lots of expectations too, but don't treat it as a do or die thing. Expectations are what others' want from you. More importantly, what do you want? Also, why is your motive to please someone else? At the end of the day, you please someone to make them happy to make you happy (I think). If you're completely unhappy throughout the journey, doesn't that defeat your main goal? Forget about what others think or want for a second and think about what you want. I know depressed people need comfort and encouragement, but if you don't take the first big step forward, you'll be depressed and miserable your whole life. You're not a failure. It doesn't matter if they think you're a failure. Do you think you're a failure? You can't give up. If you fail, you continue working hard. It may be really difficult, but if you give up, you'll keep failing. If you try, at least you have a chance. (Sorry for being so long-winded and boring. This is just the stuff I tell myself whenever I feel down and suicidal. Don't forget that lots of people are depressed, but if you don't try to stop being depressed, you'll stay like that for life instead of returning to the happy days.
Cassidy Mirah It's like you live with me ! Cuz Im really REALLY sick of doing things for others !!! And I also thought about it ! I was like : I've been doing too many things for other people isn't it the time to do things for me ?!!! I know my parents will be disappointed in me especially my father . And that's what Im concerned about the most. This year I decided to apply for a different major . I'll start all over again ! It's painful to see your classmates progressing throughout the years while you are stuck in one place since day one but what's more painful is being an ordinary person ! I cant take that I wanna love what I study and be good at it and give 100% everyday not becuz I have to but because I like it and I enjoy it . You are right I have to TRY! I cant be like this forever !

By far the hardest part about dealing with depression and anxiety has been when people compare it to their own experiences. It gets so tiring and exhausting as someone living in a first world country that "people's lives are so much worse than yours", and "I really don't think your life is that hard right now". If people in your life tell you these things, do no listen. Of course my life circumstances are different compare to those living in third world countries, but that doesn't make getting up in the morning any easier. Having depression and anxiety together is like fearing constantly that you're destroying your life and having no energy or motivation to do anything about it. I would tell people suffering from depression to do whatever you think is necessary to get better. If that's to travel, seek professional help, take a semester off school or drop out entirely, do it. You have to look out for yourself, and your own body will often tell you what it needs. Sometimes, you just have to listen to it to take the first step in the right direction.
What you said is completely true, and your advice is kind and a real help for many people, but some don't have opportunity to do as they like. I say this because I'm in it, but I can't really escape it. But what you said is true ! I agree, If someone is depressed and have the possibility to do any of this it would be amazing because I think it really helps. I'd like to add another advice to it. I have start hypnoses therapy recently and something that help me is to think about something else than the fact that I'm not feeling well. It's hard at the beginning, but with time it helps. Hope it helps some people in need, and I give a lot of support and love to everyone ! ^^
"Having a house, parents and respect from people doesn't mean you have to live 'happy' as everyone expects. Depression is not optional, if it was, a lot of people wouldn't be like this. Don't wish us a good day, week, or year; it doesn't help."
Hear me out.... What do you call this... Everytime i feel. Nothing nothing... But then im going out with my girlfriend then im starting to feel smth but dunno what actually sometimes i get mad. Not at her not at me so wtf is this..?
@@zxjjs2837 I think it’s quite normal, but idk about the mad part, after I hangout with my gf I end up feeling empty, it’s probably because your emotions spiked when you was with her, and when you’re alone they calm down, and it feels like nothing. Some good advice is, don’t let your gf be everything, find a new hobby, or a goal or talent you want to learn. She won’t be there with you all the time, and there’s a chance she might leave.
@@zxjjs2837 i never had a gf but i think the guy here is right, while having someone is great you must remember that unfortunatly you two are two different people, each with their own emotions, she can be there for you and help you but she cannot give you happiness, it something more personal that you have to achieve by yourself, also having you well being completly dependent on your gf does not seem a good idea

kaykay US and Canada: text 741741
UK: text 85258 | Ireland: text 50808 you must repent and turn from sin . And confess you’re a sinner in need of saving . And confess with your mouth and believe in your heart that Jesus is Lord and God raised him from the dead 3 days later . And ask for forgiveness and build a relationship with him , by reading the Bible and worship etc . Always repent when you sin or try . AND HAVE FAITH . BUT EVERYTHING BAD WILL NOT GO AWAY Maybe it will maybe not

1. Try not to think about anything (COMPLETE ABSENCE OF MIND) for ten minutes.
2. If this is hard do 10 pushups and now try not to think anything. Since you have depreciated your energy your brain will not think that fast and you can make it much easier not to think about anything.
3.After 10 minutes focus on onlh posiive things .If you do it correctly, it might be hard for you to thing about negative things since you have shutdown your mind for sonetime. Know think aboug your dreams and continue.
4.If you cant do what you want then you will
This might seem absurd but hey there is no loss.
Hope you get well soon mate.
Respect
You csn try taking a shoeer before doing this and it might be more effective.

I just watched this video out of curiosity of what depression is… since I’ve seen many subjects about suiciding people due to it. Stay strong everyone, stay strong.
