Ever been so depressed....

[Citruscide]

you just wish something would happen to just make it all end? I have been getting this feeling more and more lately...hmm

anyone else feel this way ?

PSSSSHHH!!! Hell yeah I do! I'm a very high spirited person... I usually don't get down... but lately, I have been down about my unemployed status... I feel inadequate as a person without making an income. Hence, the depression... also, that depression spreads like a cancer into other parts of my life... and I equate that depression to be linked to them (relationship, personal life,etc.).

Ahh well... it happens, and it will go away.

One thing about the docs that you are going to, is your right--they do just read text books and think they have the answers but what you may not realize is that there are many in that field that commit suicide themselves---I believe they are just under policeman and dentists ---but medical doctors lead the field"so to speak" So what I'm getting at is a lot of them do know what you are going through.....You are diff--not alone---My advise to you is to simplify your life as much as possible(using Zen Philos help) and when you do that ---you can really get a better understanding of yourself. Understand your build up and where you came from and who brought you up and how. Don't be upset with them or it but use it to your advantage. But if you live your life with lots of choas, you will never know who you really are and you will most likely be disappointed with the person that you see in the mirror...I see my depression today as a gift---because if it was anything else, I would have killed myself just as my brother did a few years ago...Simplify your life, understand who you are and why you are this way---and most importantly, get rid of the neg-influences in your life and you will find positive energy all around you.. Study up on depression as much as posible and you will find that it is a tool----Some people rarly have to experience it in there life---all I can say to them is to bad for them...It really can be an eye opener when you understand it...peace...

Hi Nat,
I've been where you are, and I know what you're going through. I've struggled with depression all my life. It sucked more than I ever imagined possible. Every day was a struggle not to cash it in. The only thing that kept me here was my nephew. He's autistic and would have been destroyed.

For me, it was a combination of prozac, getting older, working out every day, living extremely clean (no alcohol, drugs, smoking, or meat), being nice to myself and doing things I like, and good friends. 2 years later I feel good and I'm actually happy. I think what helps people feel better is individual, so please know that the answer is out there for you. Try to be kind to yourself and treat yourself to things that make you feel good until you find it and after.

I guess the point of this whole long is to say that there is hope. I never thought there was hope for me, but I feel good now. I'll be thinking of you--PM if you want to talk.
