Ever been so depressed....

[DR. NOE]

Taps..

Maybe you are right. But I think that most people go through ups and downs throughout their lives.

Like bunnymt commented, people do have their up and downs. People get depressed for different reasons. Have you ever lost a parent or love one. The healthy, potent man grieves, and then draws strenght from the crisis and moves ahead as a better person. I do think that if depression lasts for more than two months, you should seek some help.

I think that the elephant is cute, you know deep down that you do too

I may be a newbie here but that doesnt mean that I don't know about life...I have heard a lot of people saying that they are depressed (on this board). I do think that it is a good thing, however, that they can come here to talk about it.

90% of the people here have emotional problems???

I think I hang with a differnt clique than you Frac.

Maybe 90% is too high, but you have to admit a lot of folks around here arn't prime examples of emotional health.

Natty, no offense was intended. Sorry if I pissed you off -- you're obviously doing everying you can. My comments were directed more at other people.... Again, no offense. Can I have your porsche?

Everyone in life has a purpose. And if you don't have a clear direction .. you get depressed. Just don't wallow in that kind of emotion. If if fall on a down cycle .. i just get up .. and smile it away. After all ... tomorrow is another day ... a beautiful day .. so smile.

You asshole. I wasn't talking about you in particular.

Still tho, you know I'm right.

Ya gotta sit back relax and think what is it that bothers you so much. Some people feel depressed because they are alone. Doctors cant solve every problem, especially mental ones, but they can give you direction to help you realize what it is that bothers you.

If you can figure out whats been bothering you, things dont seem that bad. It's at that point that you have direction. You know what the problem is and now you can fix it.
Im not trying to downplay anyones depression, just giving some personal input from what Ive seen myself go through.

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 ?

I think we all have felt this way one time or another.
Life is a learning tool.

I know when you are going through it, it feel as though you
are in the deepest darkest of times.
Just remember it will pass and you will be feeling much better.

Sometimes meds. does help.
If you need to talk pm me...

Drugs/doctors actually can make things worse if your a "sane" person.

So many people get depression. I had it BIG time, thought about suicide ALL THE TIME, seriously. In fact, almost committed it.

I feel really good about my life, and who I am now. I still have shit that happens to me, and people are still assholes, and I could complain about this and that just as much as the next person.....BUT--I have truly changed my outlook on life. I except that I won't always be happy, and that the grass isn't greener on the other side.

Its very common to get depressed at your age---right after high school--your 20 right? I went through my depression at age 19.

I won't give lame advice like "keep your head up" or "things will change", but I will say that its possible to love yourself---you just need to find within yourself how to do it....fuck doctors, they don't know what your going through.
