- This video explains 5 forms of depression: Major Depressive Disorder, Persistent Depressive Disorder (Dysthymia), Disruptive Mood Dysregulation Disorder (DMDD), Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD), and Postpartum Depression. Timestamps are below as depressive disorders are nuanced & somewhat complicated to diagnose. Each depressive disorder explained has unique symptoms and criteria. Mental health professionals (Therapists, psychiatrists, social workers, etc) use the DSM-V to identify the following 5 types of depressive disorders:
1:01 Major Depressive Disorder
4:33 Persistent Depressive Disorder (Dysthymia)
6:41 Disruptive Mood Dysregulation Disorder (DMDD)
9:57 Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD)
12:44 Postpartum Depression

What does depression look like in your life? Let me know.
Treatment Resistant. Fatigue, no interests, … unemployable…low focus… feeling bad about myself for being unemployable.
Brain fog and not being able to speak or find three right word in a sentence. Hard to concentrate.
Not wanting to do much... days turn into nights turn into days....
Treatment resistant, no interest, huge lack of energy and appetite. I am curious can you have multiple of these diagnoses at one time? I have been very depressed for the past five+ years and meet the criteria for MDD but it’s been going on for so long, is it also PDD? Thanks for everything, I love your content!
There wasn't such a thing called DMDD back when I was 13. I have masterd the art of telling well articulated horrible things and later regretting. Nobody really cared about that and only made me feel bad about it. Got diagnosed of BPD with MDD recurrent two years ago. Now so much better than ever before with right therapist.
You're not alone, depressive fam.
We can all feel like crap _together!_ 🤗
Ayeee 👊💯
You don't feel like shit and want to kill yourself def nearly as much as I do
Yessir #lifesucks
This is a great comment 😊
I have done nothing with nobody since 8 August 2000 at 18:34. This will sort of be the first time since then. I am rather frightened.
I'm personally not a huge fan of PDD being described as a 'lower grade depression' because my head goes into "Oh so I don't have legitimate depression". I prefer 'high functioning depression' but that's just personal preference. I understand why a lot of people don't like that term either. I just wish it didn't have to be described and compared to other types of depression.
Yes PDD can be just as disabling, and maybe when after two years you learn how to mange symptoms and not show the symptoms?
Totally get it and agree!! Thank you so much for sharing :) xoxo
You can also have persistent MDD.
Agree!
I felt the same way when i heard lower grade depression. For me i have feeling depressed to the point of being suicidal which has persisted for almost 3 years. Doesn't feel lower grade to me it feels very severe. I have felt depressed for periods of my life for at least 14 years and maybe the low grade related to a high functioning label because ive learned to do the things i need to do for so long but neglect everything else i havent been able to keep a hobby for that amount of time
A lot of these diagnoses list symptoms that closely resemble CPTSD. Weirdly, when I finally got away from my abusive and gaslighting family, my lifelong depression started to go away. And then it comes back when my family slithers it’s way back into my life. I think mental health professionals need to first fully explore the effects that the people and circumstances are having on the patient before diagnosing someone as having a depressive “disorder,” or “chemical imbalance” (popular phrase in the 80s and 90s) and then throwing an SSRI at the problem. Sometimes the “cure” is getting out of the terrible circumstances that you’re in that is causing the stress, anxiety, and then, eventually and inevitably, depression when you give up hope that your life will ever stop sucking.
I was preparing a very long post and then realized u got a point here xD
For me it was not the family, it was my school. I had year's of beeing depressed but even one week holidays made me feel 10x better. The problem is just going back to a similar situation like a different school or work.
It's like jumping into a swimming pool again, maybe jumping into a river next time.
Well stated.
Thank you Kati
Depression does not mean sadness it could be inability feel pleasant about life and enjoy it usually accompanied with laziness,appetite changes,and when it lasts so long maybe shift into suicidal thoughts or delusions.
Yes! Thank you so much for sharing :) xoxo
Kati, your dress is amazing! ❤️
Awww thanks!! xoxo
I have been diagnosed with MDD, but it's been something I had all of my life. I did not know what happiness was unless I was out with friends. Even then, social interactions were difficult unless I was with those closest and kindest to me. I finally started fluoxetine at age 48 a few years ago. It's not something I ever thought I needed but it has changed my life for the better to see the results over time. The major thing I had was a very active negative inner voice. Crying daily. But I also went through trauma at times in life, and economic trouble. So I thought a good job would solve it. Then I got a good job and felt the inner voice demons ruining it for me. The medication basically turns down the volume of the negative voice. It's there, but I can ignore it now. Thanks for your videos.
I'm on disability for depression and was approved for it right away which kind of scares me since I heard most cases get rejected .. I had a suicide attempt and was inpatient for a while. My disability is MDD with panic disorder but medicaid sent me to a special needs center. I had autism disorder and didn't know. Not knowing led to expulsion from high school (for hiding in bathroom due to sensory and social anxiety) to trying my hardest to fit in work force and getting ostracized any Time I've tried to fit in anywhere.. Depression is usually a symptom of something greater. For me it was not knowing why things were so much harder for me than others. Now I don't work and live on SSD and deal with even more stigma for that. Sadly the suicide attempt left me with cognitively impaired. Be forgiving to yourselves and know you belong here. You might not fit in at work or school but I guarantee the internet has a place of like minded people who understand you and will embrace you. Dont give up!
All the best dear…you are brave ☺️❤️
@@artwithmamafairybreadd thank you ..
Your comment is so articulate. Thanks for sharing
@@Star-dj1kw thank you. The internet can be a great place for people like us.
About PMDD: I’ve always struggled with a mild form of depression that got worse every time I was about to have my period. I got married last year and I switched my birth control to the pill. I was first taking it including the placebo pill but a trip came up and I planned skipping my period by not taking my placebo pills and I thought it was good so I kept doing it for about 5 months. My depression was so much more manageable, I felt happy most days, probably had a few nights that I couldn’t sleep well and then felt like crap the following day but nothing that was interfering with my days. I could think clearly, my relationship with my husband improved, I started planning for the future and seeing with more clarity, all the suicidal thoughts were gone.
I recently decided to stop birth control because it was messing with my libido and I had my period again. It was horrible. The suicide thoughts are back and I can’t control them. I cried myself to sleep after a long time, don’t want to get up, I’ve been telling my self over and over that being dead would be so much better. All the problems with my husband came back and I’m over eating and not sleeping at all. I was reading a little about PMDD but wasn’t sure, after this video I think that could be my case. I think I will get back on the birth control until I can figure out a treatment 😪
Same here! Im currently back on the pill to help with that! Ive got all the symptoms and more. If the pill doesn’t work I’m gonna find a specialist in hormonal therapy because my regular doc dont want to do anything about it! It’s insane, because we are women, it’s « normal » and we should keep going until it past!?
Definitely talk to your gyn about it. I have PMDD and can no longer tolerate being on the pill. Sometimes I needed to be on the pill and an SSRI. Now I am just on an SSRI (Lexapro) and take a higher dose of it for the latter half of my cycle. Make sure you track your cycle for at least two months with an app like Clue to identify the pattern. Yes, PMDD sucks, but with a little trial and error it can be managed with medication and give you your life back.
Being on the mini pill has made a huge difference in my functinal level!
I've been diagnosed with GAD and MDD. For me, Anxiety and Depression are cousins. Both of them are the result of multiple traumas throughout my life. These disorders have been exacerbated by the loss of two loved ones that were close to me this year.
I'm glad i'm seeing a therapist and I'm under a doctor's care while I'm on medication.
I have so much compassion for people who struggle with these disorders. It's as much a physical as well as a mental disorder. Many times you don't see it coming.
I *wish* I had a depressed mood for two years, try having one for decades. 😟 You look amazing by the way. Love the top.
Same here..it’s been over 2 decades….I don’t care anymore
I have largely moved past "thoughts of death" and "death mood" which is something I am very proud of. I still have lots of anxiety and also feelings of guilt, but actually I am finally becoming aware of this more on the daily and able to untangle "complex" knots of reason that keep me there. Thank you, Katie. I think you use your profession very effectively to ease and heal human suffering, especially for someone like me.
Going though menopause makes depression worse. I've delt with it all my life. But with menopausal symptoms combined with depression is horrible!
Kati I love how you are so real.
Feeling like shit!☺️ so true!
I feel this is me, but my Dr isn't listening..... have you been treated with hormone replacement for the menopause symptoms? Or peri menopause?
oh Kati when I tell you that I cried of relieve when you talked abt PMDD. I have previously talked abt it with my psychiatrist but we haven't fully diagnose me. Seeing you saying it and spreading awareness of it it's amazing and I'm so grateful. Thank you Kate! I've been following your videos for a long time and every once in a while I can connect deeply with the topic being discussed and I just wanna say thank you thank you thank you
I'm pretty sure my mom has PMDD. She was terrifying around her period. So emotionally volatile, screaming, crying, eating her feelings, anger out of nowhere. She was, still is, so emotionally disregulated.
My mum sounds like yours, except mine was like that 24/7.
But mine was narcissistic and sadistic and enjoyed being scary…small difference
PMDD was such a shock to my life. I would want to drink or self harm to a larger degree after not needing it for a 'long' time. Then a day or so later my period would start. I've never been on hormonal treatment and after much therapy and speaking to my depression studying clinical psychology profs in Uni it became clear that this often is a part of depression rather than a diagnosis in addition to MDD.
so glad to see pmdd on here. I just recently found out i have it after a whole year and a bit of suffering. I thought i maybe had bipolar or borderline. wasn’t to sure what was wrong with me for most of every month. It’s not discussed ever and most doctors i talk to don’t know much about it. It ruined a lot for me. I’m on birth control now again after going off of it for a bit cause i forgot how bad things were when i was off. It’s just starting to kick back in and i’m very grateful. i feel like myself mostly again
The WhatsApp number is not from Kati, please don't reply!
I also thought i had these other disorders because of how intense my depression got and realized it was during my period as well
Years ago I was diagnosed with MDD. She nailed every symtom I had. I can't believe I had all 9 symptoms at onetime or the other. I am doing so well now but it took alot of work!
No surprise to me, but I have all 9. Sometimes all in one day. And it has been many, many years. CPTSD also from the age of 3, you can guess why. I am now 61 and still trying to work on my depression and suicidal ideation. I’ve had ECT numerous courses over the last 32 years. I have been clean and sober that entire time.

I was diagnosed with dysthymia in 2014. It took almost a decade to get the diagnosis right. It has gotten better over the past 8 years, but it definitely still present. I've gone from more of a severe presentation to a mild one.
It's exhausting to live with. My longest episode was a year and a half and the shortest has been 8 months. I'm up for about a month before I go right back down. My current therapist agreed I present like Eeyore. I just don't get excited about anything.
Having that with BPD and an ED is not a good time - both of those are turning around.
Therapy has helped.
Thank you for sharing this.
It took me years to discover I had PDD, not a joke for sure, but at least I feel validated. Meditation and exercise work really well. X
Don't go to WhatsApp, that's not Kati! Please be careful!
This is very confusing because they're all overlapping but with some differences, I just wish there was a happy pill that could fix each of them for anyone suffering from it. I have BPD and depressions for over 30 yrs. Today was so heavy, so tired. Btw that top is so cute and stunning and so are you, thank you for being a solid lifeline 💖
thank you for this video! just listening to your voice has a weirdly calming effect on me. i recently started a "mental health journey", i guess you could say. i can finally open up about anything in therapy. also trying out a new medication for depression & i'm so pleased with the results so far! didn't know life could be like this! seeking help & treatment has saved my life. medication has saved my life. above all, finding a good fit for me in therapy has saved my life. i really hope people speak up & get the help they deserve! life can be so much better, trust me
I am so glad you found a good fit in therapy and are feeling better!!! Yay!! xoxo
Thank you for treating everyone with dignity and respect. I've learnt so much from watching your videos. Hi from Australia 🇦🇺
Please don't msg on WhatsApp, this is not Kati, report!
The MDD description took me back to few years ago, it was overwhelming! It brought me tears. I've had a few minor episodes, I could catch them sooner.
Oh depression, my unhelpful but lifelong friend. Being diagnosed with Bipolar 2 I know depression all too well. There were times in my life when I just could not see the light. Thanks to the right medication and therapy I am pretty stable now.

Looking beautiful Kate, your channel has definitely gotten an upgrade since the last time I watched your videos...I can see the video editing is better.
The time I started watching your videos I was depressed and you gave me a lot of hope to keep fighting on. I am now a medical doctor and also licensed therapist in my country. I have my own community of therapists I mentor and we are growing strong. Just in case I didn't say it then thanks for everything, you helped make the world a better place and still are.
This was really clear and concise, Kati. Will you be making one on the types of anxiety? I feel like the lines get blurred between General, Social, PTSD and the others and the resulting avoidance of social situations and symptoms like panic and nausea, even dissociation that happens when anxiety takes over. Maybe if it weren't for PTSD, I wouldn't suffer from the other types. Seems to be a lot of carryover of symptoms from one type to another. Just some thoughts maybe for a future video.
I think Im going through the depressive stage of grief right now. So I was looking more information about it, its true about coming in waves during the day and weeks, but the truth is Im sad everyday. Im crying everyday and I miss my ex every single day.
I cant focus on college, Im not hungry (Im eating though couse I now it will make me feel worst if im on no calories), sad and with NO motivation during the day, or little motivation (I still go to the gym almost everyday couse its something I leally like and enjoy doing), and really guilty about the mistakes I made in the relationship.
Im really worried that I will stay here for a long time, its been 2 months and college doesnt wait, life continues, even my ex moved on and Im still really really hard. With this pain inside my chest. I trust in time really.
The problem with Dysthymia is that when your already low mood dips, or you are in crisis, then you end up with Double Depression which is crippling and very dangerous. As a long term illness (in my experience) you eventually just get sidelined and left to fend for yourself.
That was really helpful! Thank you so much, Kati!
I had an ADHD assessment with a psychologist recently. They basically told me they weren't sure if I had ADHD, but said I probably have some kind of "depressive disorder," although they didn't specify what that meant.
DON'T GO TO THAT WHATSAPP NUMBER, ITS NOT KATI! Fake account spamming everywhere! Report please
My therapist thought I have ADHD. I have depression and the other diagnose would not have changed that. I just think I might "act up" if I am beeing depressed, because IF I AM OVERLY EXCITED I DONT FEEL SAD or whatever xD Can't control all of it. I can shut myself down but that is a no no for my mental health.
We all overthink how we all share one thing in common - the earth which we all stand on everyday (well most of us). Everyone has their own issue and if you got depression ain't nobody going to come cheer ya up - you have to get out and get better thru meds and/or exercise and healthy eating etc... but you have your own two hands you need to takecare of and takecare of yourself with!! Protect yourself, eat healthy, get 6-9 hrs of sleep, do chores and work hard and by doing all the things this world has for us out there.
I'm diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder. Without medication, I become suicidal and unable to function entirely. As long as I have access to my medication, I'm mentally stable for the most part.
Also, considering anhedonia is listed as a symptom of many mental health conditions, it's pretty discouraging that professionals struggle to actually treat it. My medication is treating my depression. My anhedonia? I'm lucky it's in a partial state and not ruining my life.
I have ADHD, OCD, and Anxiety disorder (diagnosed), but my grandma who is a trained counselor says that I most likely am also suffering from clinical depression.
I really appreciated your strong encouragement for people to get help. Esp with period-related or pregnancy/birth-related conditions, those are downplayed SO much. It’s good to hear all of these talked in a way that doesn’t make a person dealing with any of these conditions feel bad about experiencing them 💕
You're doing a great job of helping people. Thank you. 😊
I knew I had depression, but I though I was doing an okay job living with it or maybe it was minor depression.
I’m struggling with all 9 symptoms of MDD. News to me that I am far from normal in terms of living. Wow.
thank you for talking about PMDD... truly.
Love it, at 6:04 you misspelled Last with Lass. Just so you know. Love your content and the way you teach. I recently got diagnosed with PDD, Anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, and ASD. Your content is very informative and straightforward and I greatly appreciate it!
Ahhh! Oops! Thanks for letting me know.
I was just looking through your depression videos the other night so I'm happy to see a new video! :)
I’m glad my videos are helping 🙌 thanks for the comment. 😃
I was misdiagnosed as BP-U as a child. I'm glad there is at least awareness about that overdiagnosis
Thanks for all the effort you put into these highly educational videos.
Thank you for the video Kati!

I know watching this will likley cause quite a bit of anxiety for me going in. I'm extremley sensitive currently because of my mental issues
I'm making myself watch this for the good of understanding myself better and accepting where I'm at
I have to teach myself to function better, I know watching this will help with that
I feel like this entire video is the story of my life... unfortunately I live in a country where mental health isn't talked about enough and where it's seen as shameful to go to a therapist or to take medication, so it took years of bouncing from one doctor to another to finally get a diagnosis and get treatment, but even so, in my country "treatment for adults should not be more than one year" which frustrates me
Which country?

Great video Kati - often people don't realise how many different forms of Depression there are right? Depression can show up in many different ways too - some people speak of feeling irritable as the main symptom of Depression!
I had every symptom you described for MDD starting around the age of nine. I'm 65 now, and still depressed most or all of every day. The thing is I feel like I developed severe rages in my late 20's, so that goes against what you said about it starting in childhood. Back in my childhood, all this wasn't really recognized or talked about. In high school, one of the counselors noticed my hair was dirty. I just couldn't see the point of showering. But she just assumed I didn't have shampoo, so called me to the office to give me some shampoo.
Hi Kati, Your channel offers such a variety of relevant topics to mental health that we use in our agencies for group discussions and psychoeducation with clients. Your professionalism and public speaking have really developed over the years and you are a great role model. That off the shoulder glam fashion is worthy of a red carpet.

Kati Morton. Depression feels like for me lack of energy and motivation.lack of Interest in things I use to like doing. Eating too much or too little. sleeping too much or too less. Feelings of anger/sadness /emotional/empty / lack of focus on and off. Overthinking and worrying. Plus feeling overwhelmed and worthless. unable to start things or not haveing the mood to finish what you started. How depression feels in my body numb or sometimes like there's a heavy Wight being dropped on me is what depression sometimes feel s like for me 💟
How are you now?
You comment explained so well
What Depression feels like to me.❤
@@hasinapatel1233 you are welcome I'm glad that my comment has connected with you thank you for sharing depression is horrible ❤️
Love the breaking down of each type, and the flow and informational content was very well balanced, thank you! Also interesting that you choose those 5 forms in the video, with DMDD was new to me.
Would love if you could do a video of Cyclothymia, even though the research and data on it is unfortunately quite limited...
Also, myself having PDD/Dysthymia I call out to everyone that please try and get help from a professional! Being a sufferer for many years I finally went and saw a doctor near the start of this year and got to try a SSRI that has worked wonders for me and I'm pretty much in full remission now.
Hi…
Can you please explain Ssri…as I also have PDD…
@@artwithmamafairybreadd Hello! Of course I can! SSRI's, also known as anti-depressants, are a class of medicin that targets mainly/primarily the seretonin-receptors in your brain, and in short (hopefully) results in improving your baseline mood (among other things) if being below "normal".
I would be glad to go in more detail if you wish.
Sincerely, RN, soon-to-be nurse specialized in public health and with experience in psychiatric care with both inpatient and outpatient care.

Without seeing the video , I'll describe what I'm going through right now
I am 17
Have no one to help me , nobody understands me
Trying my best to find a solution to my depression
2 years of depression, severely depressed from past few months
3 attempts failed , couldn't gather enough strength to hurt myself
Stressed all day nearly everyday, i don't express myself, i have no one who could listen to me , my parents have high expectations because I'm good in studies , always high pressure, my career is decided by them , i have no friends to talk to.
I used to love a lot of things , but now i don't even remember what i loved, have become blank , empty from inside , i don't know how to be happy anymore , always having heart ache , i am so weak that i am scared of suiciding , i always care for others and hence i don't try to do things which will hurt them , but I'm so mentally disturbed that i always ruin things and friendship, i ruined my good friendship with the only good friend i had who listened to me
Helpless...i just wish someone murder me so that i can peacefully live in the afterlife atleast... I'm dead sure it will be more peaceful than how it is now..😔
Thanks Kati!
Thanks Kati 🙏🏼
solusi terbaik dalam menghadapi depresive..
My girlfriend has had depressive episodes before and now I am going through one with her. We haven't been together long and our time together has been a sequence of pretty rough life events (mostly on her part: falling out with her parents, break-in in her apartment, hates her job). So I can say, during our relationship, I have rarely experienced her in a state of happiness. I love her, but it can be tough spending time with her. She says she has been depressive for some weeks and I trust her judgement (she is a psychologist). However, she appears, as she herself puts it, "highly functional" most of the time. She still goes to work, sees her friends and we talk and enjoy things like watching movies or reading together. But here's the thing: For about two or three weeks, there has been almost no physical intimacy between us and it is killing me...
It's not just sex (that's not happening anymore), but she rarely kisses me and if so, it feels fleeting, even forced. The same goes for holding hands, huggin, cuddling. If we do get close to each other, I have to take the initiative. She has even rejected me a few times, which was confusing and hurtful. She then said that it felt intrusive and she needed some space. I guess this is part of the symptoms, as well as the apparent fact that she doesn't realize how it hurts me. But sometimes I wonder if her depression is really as bad as she says or if there is something else going wrong between us. It makes me feel helpless and anxious. Is this "normal" for a depressed person? Can somebody share similar experiences? And what can I do?
Try to support her the best you can. Shes going through a hard time. If you're comfortable with it talk to her about how youre feeling. Communication is important
Yes iam aware of these types of depression cause I have suffered from 3 of them. All at different times. Mayor depressive disorder with anxiety, low grade depression at one time also for several years, and postpartum depression and anxiety that was so severe that I had to call 911 on myself cause I had not slept more than an hour at a time even when my daughter slept. I ended up needing anti anxiety mds and anti depressant and talk therapy. They also gave me respite care
I have been diagnosed with dysthemia, and it's a really weird state to be in. Kinda like a not so intense, but ongoing depression.. like not intense enough to be called depression, but still awful enough to ruin most days. That's how it is for me at least. And it's been going since i was a teen, so almost 10 years or something.
Thanks Kati 💯💚
this was good thanks for talking about this

In retrospect, I had PMDD until I had a hysterectomy. Since age 5, I have felt like I was a below the "normal" line of mood and energy. Sort of a low-grade chronic fever. Still am, but now it's exacerbated by Multiple Sclerosis, in which depression is common. I haven't been on depression meds for many years now. I can manage it better mentally since the hysterectomy. For me my depression has been both chemical and physical.
Thanks for this video. Unfortunately none of those 5 types seems to accurately describe my experience of depression. I may have had an initial depressive episode that lasted more than two weeks (so MDD) but it was a long time ago so I don't remember specific timing. Over the past 6 years or so though a have experienced depressive episodes that usually last less than a week in duration (typically 2-4 days) but occur fairly regularly at a recurrence rate of about 1-2 a month... sometimes with some more significant gaps (2-6 months) in between. I have considered PMDD before but after tracking my moods/episodes for some time it was clear there was no pattern with my menstrual cycle. It appears that Recurrent Brief Depression appears to be the most fitting diagnosis, but unfortunately it doesn't appear to have gained much attention, in research as well as the general public.
I find this experience of what I believe is Recurrent Brief Depression very frustrating, and have difficulty accepting it as a condition at times because it is not widely recognised with the episodes being so short-lived. Also, knowing the right treatment approach is also difficult with the lack of research conducted. The idea of medication has never felt appropriate due to all the good days (the majority) I have in between episodes. I see a psychologist and have been doing so for years now but I find it's hard to track progress when I'm regularly feeling good in between episodes. The condition overall seems to have decreased my confidence levels and self-esteem, although helped to increase my empathy.
Would you consider doing a video on Recurrent Brief Depression one day?
The DMDD describes me to a T, but I am 43 years old. Had these all my life. Severity seems to come and go, but never leave my life fully. My life is a mix of DMDD and PDD.
im dignosed with PDD , i learned to life with my Demons but i never had the typical lost of will to Live. I have my Pets they need me and its absolute BS to something like this. Beside feeling holeless i never lost my rational thinking and inteligence to watch mysself and this voice in my Head constantly overthinking bad Ideas but this Voice is also my worst enemy. Being in the ASD can be helpful but also so numbing in seeking help , because your energy is low in both ways. Because we wont gain energy from social activitys we often forced to like neurotypical People want us to do. 20 Years depression + many Traumas ( also ptsb i never known of) caused me to never be a normal adult. I tryed a lot but at point you resignate . Not help from family constant preasure , not only depressed also burned out since 2 Years , perma Overload and frequent meltdowns and shutdowns , but nobody cares ... i have to be fuctioning on autopilot.( Corona didnt made a diffrence i loved being alone at home). I wont need medication i have a good controll over my feelings no sudden moodswings , i feel the same neutral feeling every day. Exhausted or neutral my moods. Sad is something i had to cover , when i show it my Dad flips and makes tantrums. I have to cover my feelings. How ironic i'm autistic im a Master of hidung emotings when needed.
Recently im in a State of burnout and depersonalisation ... no clue how far it came i simply often feel not myself anymore i just watch myself and lost all feeling of myself.Its not common to seek help in family , in the end i'm they trshcan with no right to be sad. Not able to do easists tasks ... numb from derpression and burn out. Also overloaded from the preasure to handle things on your own more than ever before. Being sick and nobody knows whats going on .. i have resignated in a State of - nobody can help me - its fine i deserve the suffering and thats my Life . No matter how hard i try to chanche it for my best , everthing falls like a cardhouse somewhere . I have issues with concentration , my memory suffers and everything feels so heavy and i have push myself to my absolute limits. And i wonder where i take the energy to move on.
The sadness, thrash , taskes , responsibilitys Problems , laying on me like huge pile of waste on a Dumpster , an people putting more an more trash on me, i drown in sorrow and preasure. And its my reasponsebility to be there for all and everthing not to drown and sufforcate in this in Maelstrom that pulls me under water more an more. When you sleep for 8 h hours an not even feeling rested . Feeling fatiqued every day. Im so weak and helpless , but im not allowed being weak , my mom also pushes and nerver stops ... i have to be strong every Day no complain no weakness no tears .... pushing pushing pushing . Affraid as hell lose controll that keeps me going even its toxic as hell but cant leave.
I have been diagnosed with MDD, but I have manic episodes. So I am not entirely sure if it is Bipolar 1 or MDD. It has been very difficult, regardless. The form of it is treatment resistant, but through extensive medication trials it has gotten a little better. I have other comorbid disorders as well such as PTSD, which just complicates it further. Been working with both a LMFT and psychiatrist for over 10 years. I didn't start getting help until I was 30, and so that didn't help. #Faith
Off-topic here, but love your outfit! Thanks for the info :)
What if an adult meets the DMDD criteria, though? I didn't know this person when she was a child, but I did witness this behavior in this person for 18 years.

I’m struggling with anxiety, fears, sadnesses, physical pains, and despair, having no job, no future, weakness, . I tried consulting therapists, psychiatrists and medications, and nothing works!! I got deathly sick and tired of life! I’m lost, alone, outcast, and desperate! I watched a lot of RUclips videos about my problems, and i found it very difficult, unclear, not specific, complex, and not useful. I don’t have the energy and motivation to do anything!!! Anyone can give me a specific, concrete, clear, simple baby steps to move on. Especially if someone experienced that before, what worked for them and think that it will objectively work for anyone!! I started doing only meditation in my life before 4 days, i do it plain and basic with no complexity, i don’t know if i will benefit from it, or if I’m doing it the exact accurate way!!!! And i do absolutely nothing more besides that. Lazy, sad, anxious, afraid, desperate!!!!! I get sick of life!!!!
I am overwhelmed, and confused, and have too many problems!!
Wow. I know I can’t self-diagnose but PDD descriptors really hit
Adhd- I am diagnosed young and STILL hyper. I have been a self loather since the childhood days. I am 99% sure it is dysthymia . I have one support now but none from the past and going to Trauma therapy . I don't know why, nothing to show forall these struggles
Thank you for clarifying bipolar manic or hypomanic

With how you described the symptons, i was also thinking how they fit with autism and specifically how it is described nowadays in most countries from what i saw. Which got me wondering about a thing. Would it be possible to diagnose someone with one of those depressions instead of just a late autism diagnose or would it be a combination then where they get both autism and depression?
My depression and anxiety hid my autism really well to professionals for so long. Only after my sibling got diagnosed, did I realize that I might also have autism.

@@RainRemnant ok thank you for letting me know because I was honestly thinking it was a connection to Kati sadly I took down the number and tried it in what's app lucky I haven't been spammed thanks again
Watching this makes me think I have PDD... I mask it and I'm able to go to work, etc., but inside I just feel low.
Hi Kati, have you done a video about treatment-resistant depression?

I have 8 out of the 9 symptoms for MDD but they’ve lasted like 8 years so would that make it PDD or can MDD also be long term? P.s. currently in the process of finding a therapist to get an actual diagnosis.
Hi Kati or anyone reading this....I am on very high dose of meds on antidepressants and a low dose of antipsychotics but I am feeling depressed because I still cannot take care of myself properly......I don't know how I'm supposed to cope? Should I try upping the dose of the antipsychotic? I have social anxiety and depression
Just a tip I discovered the hard way.
In the UK if you think you have postnatal/postpartum depression, speak to your GP as well as your midwife. My midwife/midwives referred me multiple times to the perinatal mental health service and because they were overstretched they ignored 4 referrals. As soon as my GP chipped in too they were very helpful. The sad truth was by that point I was very sick and needed inpatient treatment. Don’t take no for an answer!
Merci pour ta vidéo
Thank you for making this informative video. Best wishes to everyone watching this video. Good luck to everyone on their journey. Have a pleasant day.
When it comes down to the irritability & temper outbursts aspects of DMDD, how does it differentiate from Intermittent Explosive Disorder?

I'm not really for antidepressants, most either don't work or have horrible unbearable side effects. The worst being weight gain. The only thing that ever worked is Brand name Wellbutrin...I don't have the money for snd/or nobody carries. I think I have the reoccurring one. I have been a caretaker for both parents for 4 years. Dad passed last year...mom has dementia.

Is there a name for when you experience all of these?
Your videos are very educational and interesting, but the fact that they are too short to discuss the subjects in depth and the excessive amounts of commercials disrupting the explanations makes it nearly impossible for people suffering from mental health issues that causes them to lose interest quickly, concentrate and feel irritable to not be negatively affected instead of helping them ease their pain. As a RUclipsr, you can minimize the amounts of ads in your videos and I think you should use that function so that way you can make your money from the ads, but also help people who watch your videos. Having over a million subscribers triggers a lot of ads to be shown, which means more disruptions to the subjects you’re discussing in your videos. Please consider reconfiguring your ads in your RUclips account. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.
I love your dress! You look fabulous x
I struggle after having my oldest child. I got no help or support. This was in 1999. And it affected me having my other 3 kids all 4 got adopted. I’m trying for a baby with my fiancé and things have changed so much but it’s still a massive stigma about it. What if I struggle again and ask for help and my baby gets taken away like my other kids?
Kati, i need your help. My parents and siblings constantly yell at me and tell me to kms. I think all my friends are fake because they never invite me. So I can’t talk to a friend, parent, or sibling. Also, since I’m not in school bc it’s summer, I can’t talk to a teacher/ counselor at school. And I can’t call a hotline because my parents check my phone so they can see my recent calls. What do I do?
Oh that’s kind of concerning about postpartum psychosis. As a teenager, without meds I get psychosis on my period. I wonder if that makes it more likely that I will get it post baby when I’m an adult? Just something to think about 🤔
