Do you ever get depressed and don't know why?

[Garza]

I have been getting depressed alot lately. I don't want to do anything, just come home and go straight to bed. This sucks, i've struggled with it thru out my life, does anyone else have any similar expereinces?

It just comes and goes. Everyone i know goes through it. I have one friend 27 years old, he is a software developer making 120k plus and the guy works at chilies part-time as a waiter just cause he gets depressed when he isnt busy.

Yes, I have been there...You need to figure out what is causing you to feel depressed now, before your in a full blown depression....I think some people are genetically predisposed to be depressed (not sure if I worded that right or not? My great grandmother had shock therapy years and years ago to treat her depression and my grandmother has been on every anti-dep. they make and still struggles daily w/it...Are you working out regularly? If your not - start b/c It really helps....good luck!

No...

Yes, I workout regulary and have for a while now. I have pretty much decided to start being alot more strict with working out. If i get depressed it will never be because I look like shit.

Not really - if I get depressed, I usually know what's causing it.

I usually get depressed for many reasons at once (racing thoughts). . . runs in the family

It's mostly for shit I fucked up on. . . which is for a lot of things. . .

When the depression hits. . . I just turn on some music and ride it out

Nothing lasts forever. . . just remeber that

What are you pissed about that you are not taking actions to deal with? Answer that, you'll find out why your depressed and repressed.

I hear ya! My basic routine is wake up, watch tv, workout, work, then go home and sleep. I dont want to go out w/ my friends or do anything fun anymore. Ive had this feeling for about 2 years now!

You can usually tell what is causing your depression. Have you had any radical changes or instability in your life? Do you feel lonely or have low self-esteem? Are you on cycle?
