who gets depressed

Lao Tzu

New member
yeah i know its a chat board, but its a chat board filled with real people who just happen to use the internet.

So who gets depressed on & off? i don't know if mine is psychological or biological. Probably both. Either way, it will pass in a day or so.

I no longer am in this stage, but I have been. For the majority of my High school life, I was in a total state of depression. Never on and off, just total depression. But as of spring time or so this year (senior year in high school), I started shaping up. These were the times of on and off as far a depression is concerned. I would be suicidal one day, while being quite happy and content the next. And while it was a bad stage to go through, it was necessary for getting to where I am now. I am pretty much in a complete stage of satisfaction. At this time in my life I do not look down on myself for anything, am not regretting anything, and am enjoying almost every second of every day. (especially this weekend :D)
 
I know a lot of my depression is circumstantial.

Why be depressed? We always have women to cheer us up. Yea...thats right. Women.

But when your 6'2, 280 (not muscle) with a 42 waist and are too shy to talk to any female, whether your attracted to them or not, there is plenty of reason to be depressed. But.. at the time I thought there was nothing I could do about it. I was oh sooo wrong.
 
More like who isn't depressed from time to time. We have all sorts of new disorders "discovered" in the past 10 years. We seem to all have short attention spans,anxiety,arritability,anger at the world etc. Maybe we are over stressed. I think Depression is from a combo of environmental,social ,spiritual(in whatever sense you may have) and psychological reasons. Add to that the major factor genetics has and you get allot of depressed people. It seems to be similiar to alcoholism. If your parents have it chances are you will too. Also, look how many rich people are technically depressed. Weird eh? I swear money would solve all my problems but I know it really wont. Nice to think it would though.

You think you have problems? Last night about 6 different women went down my shirt and one rubbed my back and butt while one rubbed a leg.
I didn't get wood, I don't unless there is friction on the Johnson.
I went home alone. I was holding out for Barbie. I'm fucked.

Nay, I do not have problems. I HAD problems.

You are far too good of a man to ever be depressed B Fold. Cheer up, I have yet to meet someone in real life with so much drive, ambition, and heart as you.

My gosh, don't even get me started on the whole depression bit... but I will say this: IT BLOWS!

It infact does. For it is better to get over it, and enjoy your life for what you have.
 
I'm happy all the time. I have never been depressed and never will be. I'm just that amazing. I feel like I'm in a constant state of euphoria. It's like one life-long orgasm. You guys suck by the way. Only losers get depressed, I mean really.

Thanks...but it is true. At times I question how far of a good man that I REALLY am.

Looks like SOMEONE had a good time in Plano, TX. :p



DW: It's easy to say that, but it's a lot harder than you think man!

Trust me, I too know this from experience. I do realize now though, the more your told, the more it will stick into your brain. I would also like to add that, if I can surpass my background and problems, then who can't?

:o Shut up, you know what I am talking about... Look at Knight69's location, you jewish princess.

You fucking wish I would ever be caught dead fucking fat, hairy, old people (no offense to the knight's). And while I may be a Jewish princess, I at least, am good at it, except for the whole being Jewish and female parts...I got the princess down though. Fuck you. Go get me a cupcake. NOW DAMMIT!!!
 
haha assholes

i think it was just buspar withdrawl. I went about 24 hours without a tablet. I took 5mg, and now i'm fine. Then again, i don't know. I go in & out of depression all the time. Nothing serious, just unhappness in & out. I don't know if it was 'normal' or buspar withdrawl. either or, its gone now. At least for a day or so.
 
i honestly dont think you have control over it, to an extent you do. like say your hand get's cut off, then you have the choice to be negetive or positive about it. but you can't help it if you can't get rid of a feeling, no matter what face you pretend to throw on. sure there are ups and downs in peoples lives, but what if they can't get rid of the down, no matter what they do, how big they are, how much money they have......that's why most resort to suicide, pretty sad.

<- bipolar, i think u already know that nordstrom....u pm'd me a long time ago about it.

I'm more bi-polar than you could ever hope to hope to be and you fucking know it. Post a pic.
 
go take a walk in a hospital. Take a deep deep breath as you walk the halls. Look around at all these different problems. When you leave if you feel depressed put your shit in perspective.
 
I've certainly had my downtime - but it comes and goes. was far worse when I was on stuff.
now I'm pretty much happy all the time, although also annoyed at most everyone.
 
I have been depressed off and on for the past 3 years now, with a depression taking up most of those 3 years. I have been on and off of meds for depression as well.

Not sure if I want to get back on them, because some of the side effects counteract the anti depressants (You have sex while you're on Welbutrin, and let me know if you blow your load. If you do, you're a stud). Frustrating as hell.

Although the Viagra and the associated headache worked wonders :D
 
I think I get easily depressed.. mental illness/clinical depression runs in my family..or maybe it's because of my manic depressive mom teaching bad behaviors. I'm not always a positive, happy person and I workout enough to dig me out of my mental hell hole. :bawling:
 
my life has been going down the shitter for the past 6months now id say,i cant get to where i want to no matter how much i try,im moody,down on myself,but the next day it can totally change,i swear im fucked up but i refuse to let some doctor tell me how fucked up i am

but just remember everyone goes through shit,it can only last so long
 
Wellbutrin
Adderall
Vivarin
Ephedrine
Working out
Masturbation

- my personal arsenal against depression. I have down days at times, but I manage to stay OK most of the time now. :)
 
I use to suffer from severe depression. It is a bitch to deal with. Now like said earlier I just have good days and bad days. What usually gets me out of it is when I sometimes talk to people and they are telling me about thier problems. You think you have problems until you hear about someone elses. We all go through bouts of depression, but if it is persistent then you may need to see a doc.
 
nordstrom you just knew i was going to reply and say yes i get depressed when you posed that thread.

The thing is i can always remember being depressed even from the age of like 11, i knew i was ugly, used to play games in my mates bedroom and all the girls were going with a lad and i was the one on my own, and whichever way i look at it things have never really changed. And as i got older the attitude about my looks has made me so insecure even if a nice blind girl liked me i'd fuck it up through being jealous and clingy but what can you do. Now i suffered from panic attacks and take anti depressants which keeps me OK and stops the panic attacks. At the moment i feel OK but sooner or later at least five or six times a week one of my darker moods will descend on me and i'll be bitter and tearful because whichever way you see it life aint fair. All my mates have got girls and me i've probably got 60 years of loneliness to look forward to.

Like they say though you always see life the way YOU are not the way it is

I can relate to the clinginess, the anxiety, the mood shifts that come & go every day.

i used to think i wasn't ugly, but i put pictures up on hotornot & facethejury and got alot of 4's. Damn that sucks, my self esteem :(. Ah well, thank god women don't care about looks.

Do you have an MSN IM account?
 
no i only use the net at the library so i can't downlaod anything, oh and i get there ridiculous filtering software which means i can't give karma to analassplorer as the word anal is blocked by filtering software.

I went to see a shrink and she told me i wasn't depressed but i did have anxiety problems and low self esteem and she referred me for cognitive behavioral therapy, but i've heard nothing about it and that was three months ago.

besides cbt is gonna do what? convince me that i'm not ugly! well great but that does nothing for all those girls who are convinced i am ugly, you think women don't care about looks? i disagree in the end would you really wanna go with a girl you found physically revolting?? point proven

i doubt you're as ugly as you make yourself out to be. Pretend an engineer at a power plant had your personality & outlook. Would you trust his judgement when a problem arose? probably not, as you know he is overly pessimistic and his judgements aren't based on fact. I have an anxiety disorder too and i am always making mountains out of molehills. But i realize i am doing that, and i don't take myself 'as' seriously as i did when i didn't know that.

CBT might help you. You can learn to do it yourself btw. Its easy to learn. it is also called REBT.

I don't think women really care thaaaat much, to be honest. If you are self confident & interesting it won't matter if you are 'ugly'. Besides, you can always develop a nice body to compensate.
 
I am having a tough time right now. Some of it is post cycle, some of it circumstantial. I spent most of yesterday in bed.
I hope it gets better soon.
 
What are some things you guys have done to help get out of depressed times?

I know for me, just waiting it out, keeping it to myself, and some deep thought helps. I've gone to a shrink at 3 different times in my life and it's helped a lot. When depression starts now, I seem to have the skills to help handle it and I know it'll eventually fade...knowing that it won't go on forever really helps get me through.

When I was in my teens I had depression so bad that I tried to kill myself twice. I'm so thankful that I never succeeded. Through all of the bullshit in life, I've found that there's SO MUCH to be thankful for and to appreciate.
 
I could write you a small book on depression and give you a list of antidepressants that don't work for me that could fill a small book... talking to someone will definately help... hey it's just therapy... how much can it hurt? Remember you need to find someone to tell you things about yourself in a way that you understand... 1000 people have 1000 different ways of saying the exact same thing and it doesn't mean you will understand any of them, but eventually someone will get through or you will figure out the place you need to be in life. Sometimes it takes extreme lows to make you see the highs again.
 
I am kinda thankful that this board is here. I am glad I am not the only one going through some shit (self imposed shit or not). There are a few people that posted to this thread that I wonder why they are depressed. From my veiwpoint, some of these guys don't seem to have it that bad. And I have been told I don't have it bad either, but you never know.

fallenangel, I can definately relate to the issues of being ugly. When I was in HS, all my buds had girls or were at least dating. You couldn't get a dog near me unless I had a steak tied around my neck. But buck up, bud. The ugly duckling sometimes does turn into a swan.
