      This is true but, like with anxiety too each person might experience their depression in a unique way? I can know other people’s sufferings but don’t always understand why? Take me and my best mate of 30 years. We both suffer anxiety and depression. But we have totally different triggers and I don’t understand how his demons can be a problem and vice versa. His problems seems silly even to me and again vice versa. But the pain and suffering we both feel are universal and I can completely understand that .

    Depression really hits differently when you're stuck with no one to talk to. It's like that moment when you're just like, "Wow, there's legit no one I can spill my feelings to." Everyone else is wrapped up in their own issues, and you don't wanna bother them with your own mess.

      To put it plainly God doesn’t want you depressed one of the fruits of the spirit is called Joy (Happiness). Jesus wants to give you joy that never runs out. Don’t give up, ask Jesus for help and watch your situation flip. God wants to show you He is real if only you would let Him. You have nothing to lose but everything to gain.

Never realised it, but now I look back at recent moments where I laughed with people, but right after that, when I stopped laughing, i can see how I didn't really felt like things were laughworthy, I just thought it was the socially apt thing to do. And if you ask me what would I do to make me happy, I wouldn't know.

      Depression is an opponent you should never turn your back on, but fight head on by training your mind so as to grow stronger in the battle. Because we learn day by day just how strong you really are when being strong is our only option. You need to believe you can before you do. I know I am grateful for the battle it has allowed me to see beyond me, and that has made me free to build a strong me, that has not turned my back on it but overcome it, so that it is no longer in my way. I wish you all the best to you in your battle, use God's word like it was ment to be used, like a sword.🙏💪♥

    Him describing what it was like to not be depressed reminded me of a walk I had gone on. It was just so pretty. The trees looked amazing and it was a road I had lived on for the past 4 years. It’s not like it was some scenic place I’d never seen. But everything just seemed pretty that day and when I went to talk about it and tell people how pretty it was, everyone seemed to not really care or dismissed it. Thinking back on that moment after hearing this made me realize the one time I wasn’t depressed in a while no one cared because no one realized how different I saw the world
    Depression doesn’t only change your mindset but it affects how you fundamentally view things and even impacts your memory. I’ve had depression since I was 9 which at this point is more than half my life and I can’t remember what it means to be truly happy. I’ll have times I’ll laugh and I’ll have fun but after the moments over im left with an emptiness again. Things aren’t as vibrant and I’ll often forget things while having depressive episodes. I’ve had times while I was depressed that I’ve genuinely forgotten I’ve needed to eat and gone 3-4 days without eating because my brain just didn’t remember I needed to do that
    I know no one will probably see this, but it’s at least a decent feeling to get some of it out

      I understand this very well. My first day on my medication, the world was brighter and more colorful. I was giggling like a kid again, and just enjoying the day. It's the first time in years that I had felt that way and actually saw the world in bright colors. Like it should be seen... Because I've learned that depression can actually cause a change in your vision. It makes you see in greyscale, almost. And I had gone years with the colors slowly fading, that I didn't even notice it until that day. And I was giddy about seeing all the bright colors again.

    4 years ago I was considering suicide. I made plans and everything. Then I met my dog. A friend of mine was giving away puppies. I finally met someone who actually loved me. It was the first time I felt happy in years. Now when the suicidal tendencies try to return the thing keeping me going is the thought "If I die no one will take care of her and she will suffer without me" and "I need to be healthy and happy to be able to provide for her" This motivated me to start therapy and make changes in my life.

Her good works mean nothing to the judge as a righteous judge only judges you on the bad.
      The Bible in the old testament is filled with the idea of sacrifice, but one sacrifice was never sufficient it had to be sacrificed continuously, but Jesus the true Lamb of God died as a perfect sacrifice without sin, so either repent and believe in Jesus or get judged by all the bad you did in your life.

Just a heads up for others struggling with depression. It does not always get better. You can try and honestly you have a great chance of getting out. But sometimes it just does not get better no matter what you try. I'm 30, I've had depression since I was 13. And I've been told at least once a year since then about how it "gets better". And I'm still standing out here with my palms aiming upwards next to my head going "uhhhh so when exactly? S'been 17 years. any incite? No? None? Oohhh 17 years wasn't long enough? Ooohh my bad.

It wasn't until recently I found a truly wonderful therapist and can finally start to unravel the past and all the dark thoughts.

    For me the most frustrating part about living with myself is the inconsistency of what I feel each day. It makes no sense how one day I can acknowledge how the suns up and there’s things to look forward to and feel all around good or decent at the least, but on another day it feels like there’s no point to live. Trying to sleep is the worst part about it cause if I’m not tired enough I’m not sleeping until I am tired, and until then I’m in my mind which always resorts to how I think about myself negatively, how I look, how I act, thinking about what I would do in certain situations that I regret so much, and it makes me hate myself enormously. Too many times I wish I could be someone who doesn’t regret who they are.

      this is exactly what ive been going through since may of 2022. i've never felt so imbalanced in my entire life. the inconsistency was so real and i felt like will i ever just be happy and live in peace. last night i had a very hard time falling asleep being racked with fears and anxiety. i have to literally tire myself out and fall asleep from exhaustion to actually be able to sleep. and when i do sleep i feel like i dont get enough sleep at all. then i wake up and those dark thoughts immediately consume me again and the whole cycle repeats. i've tried escaping reality through books which did help for many years but as of may 2022 i felt all the joy i found in those things disappear and i was left with no outlet. all i do now is think about past mistakes and regret and how much i wish i could've gone to the past and stopped myself from doing certain things.

    “I don’t want to die. I want to live forever”.
    Recently, for the past few months I have hit my breaking point. I’ve dug a hole for myself, failing all of my classes in school. I’ve never been diagnosed but god I’ve been asking to see someone, anyone, for years. Im tired, and I’ve lost my motivation to finish anything.
    That line at the end reminded me of something. I have a dream. To live a simple, quiet life somewhere else, with a family and kids even. I don’t care about having an amazing degree, or even being academically impressive. I don’t care if I have a super professional job. I would gladly take up something, anything, that wouldn’t make me miserable and would allow me to live comfortably,
    I’m young, but that’s something I want so badly. I want to live. But I just don’t want to live like this anymore. And I don’t know how to stop it.
    But my god you better believe I’m going to try harder now. I’ll try to wake up early tomorrow. I’ll try to finish my work on time. I’ll try to go for a walk (even though it’s starting to snow). I’ll try, because I want to live, deep down I do.

    The craziest thing to me is I think people who struggle with depression are actually such good people and so grateful and appreciative for the little beautiful things in life. The thing we should be more grateful for is maybe our selves as a whole. Because it's all a part of being human whatever the falsely perfect/in denial part of society might say. Negative thoughts and feelings don't happen without a reason right?

    I can relate to a lot of what you are saying, except for one major part. The guilt I feel over my depression, anxiety, and mental health isn’t because I feel bad about thinking I’ve got it the worst. The guilt is that I feel like I don’t have the right to feel like that. People are in far worse situations than I’m in and I am waisting the opportunities I’ve been given.

    • @janetscrivener7915
      @janetscrivener7915 5 лет назад +244

      I have this feeling all the time. This guilt you are feeling is too common but it's just not realistic for a depressed person to expect themselves to live and behave as if everything is normal - it's not and that's something we need to come to accept - without failing to take responsibility for our own lives as much as possible. I hear you about the 'wasted opportunities.' But if there was never any real chance that you would be able to use them, are these 'opportunities' real or just seem real because other people can use them? I know we can know this on the inside, but it's very difficult when people on the outside criticize one for 'failing to live up to expectations' - some people will just never get it about depression and we have to learn to accept that also. It's hard to live with depression for so many reasons. Guilt does not need to be added to the pile of negative things that try to pile up on us. Other people's suffering does not make ours meaningless and unimportant.

    This is so accurate. Whenever I try to talk with my parents about my depression (which isn’t diagnosed) they always say that it’s not depression. It’s just normal life struggles that everyone goes through. I don’t have depression, everyone feels sad sometimes. I don’t have anxiety, everyone gets anxious. I don’t have ADD, everyone gets distracted. But these things are NOT things that everyone experiences. Yes, everyone does get sad but depression is so different from that. People need to understand that just because everyone gets sad or anxious or distracted doesn’t mean that our mental illnesses aren’t real.

      Hello, my dear friend. I hope this message finds you well. I know that you
      have been going through a tough time and feeling down lately, and I just
      wanted to reach out and let you know that I am here for you.
      I know that it can be difficult to see the bright side of things when you are
      feeling depressed, but please know that you are not alone. There are
      people who care about you and want to help you through this tough time.
      It's okay to not be okay. It's okay to feel sad and overwhelmed. These are
      normal emotions and it's important to allow yourself to feel them. But it's also
      important to remember that these feelings are temporary and that things will
      get better.
      I want you to know that you are strong and capable of overcoming this
      difficult time. You have the strength and resilience to get through this and
      come out even stronger on the other side.
      Please don't give up. There is help available and there are people who care
      about you and want to see you happy and healthy again. Don't be afraid to
      reach out and ask for help. You deserve to feel better and to live a fulfilling
      and happy life.
      In the meantime, try to take care of yourself. Get enough sleep, eat
      nutritious meals, and try to do activities that bring you joy. It's okay to take
      some time for yourself and to focus on your own well-being.
      Remember that you are loved and valued. You are an important and unique
      individual with so much to offer the world. Don't let your depression define
      you. You are so much more than that.
      I am here for you and always willing to listen if you need someone to talk to.
      You are not alone and I am here to support you. Hang in there and keep
      fighting. Better days are ahead.

    Depression gets overlooked by so many. Often triggered by loneliness. It slowly becomes your only friend and separates you from other human beings. The longer it goes on, the harder it becomes to try and regain that contact. If you manage to find some people who can relate and truly understand you, it feels good and most likely you'll over-reach your boundaries and end up pushing them away, slowly. Not many are keen to have a negative thinking person be part of their life, and so the hurt that comes afterwards, is even worse.
    I can understand why the desire to part this life has majority thought with a lot of us. When the feeling of being happy ends up being like a vacation that you can take once a year if you're lucky, it's so difficult to keep a positive outlook because the day to day living is just not pleasant.
    I hope you surround yourself with great people that cherish you, and keep them part of your life.

Don’t give up, ask Jesus for help and watch your situation flip. God wants to show you He is real if only you would let Him. You have nothing to lose but everything to gain.

I thought maybe they'd understand, but they said "it happens Manav and it's funny that a sensible guy like you can't handle these small stressful situations. I mean when I was at your age..."

      Hello my beautiful fellow human beings. You don’t know me, and I don’t know you all, but allow me to introduce myself: I’ve been diagnosed with persistent depressive disorder in September 2019. It’s a form of chronic depression that I had to struggle with since I was 6-7 years old, but it went undiagnosed and untreated for many years, until I had a mental breakdown.
      I tried to kill myself two months after the diagnosis, when I finally realised that I might be condemned to feel that way for the rest of my life.
      Why am I telling you this ?
      Because I can relate with the guilt you’re feeling right now. I too felt sorry for my loved ones, I felt guilty of being abnormal, guilty of not being happy, even though I seemingly had everything for me. I felt like my existence was an unfair burden that they had to unwillingly carry.
      It was terrible. I felt terrible. Like a monster in human form.
      But then, I received help. Firstly, from my therapists, who gave me an outlet to talk about my feelings, letting me understand what I was experiencing and why. Secondly, from my treatment, that nurtured my ill brain back to an chemical equilibrium, allowing me to see things a bit more clearly.
      And last but not least, from my loved ones. They reassured me of their love and care for me, made me understand that it wasn’t my fault if I was the way I was : I didn’t choose to be born this way, I didn’t choose to experience what I did, I didn’t choose to be depressed. I simply was. And because of that, I understood that the burden of my sickness, which was indeed real, was one they were more than willing to share with me.
      Because they loved me.
      Even in the imperfection of my suffering, they loved me.
      So, if possible, don’t feel sorry for your loved ones, your parents, your family: more chance than none, they are more than willing to share the burden of our depression. Because they love us. And that’s what love is all about.
      Sharing is caring.
      I care about you all,
      Stay strong. Stay alive. It can get better, eventually 💜

I do pray/speak to God very often and I know what my purpose here on earth is. Only after I fulfill that can I leave this life. I have had a tough life and I am supposed to use my bad experiences to be able to reach out to others who feel like they can't go on. I feel like a fraud because I hate living with the loss of close family to tragic and scarring events. I hate living with chronic physical pain too and it kills my spirit every day. I have struggled with MDD for over 20 years and that is nearly 1/2 my life. I feel so tired, defeated, unloved, helpless, burdened, and hopeless plus many, many details that I left out that complicate it all.

    I may be a few years late, but y’all get ready for an essay.
    I went through severe depression for a solid 18 years of my life, I’m 21 now. That’s only 3 years of my life that I have been.. happy.
    I’m not going to go into why I was or how it happened. It’s not a thing that you accept, it simply occurs. Depression is a force, the only thing to “cure” it is your own will. You have to find the smallest the microscopic things that make you smile, even the slightest grin to keep pushing. There are days you never wana move, talk to anyone, and get so close to the knife against your throat.
    I will admit, I have had 2 semi successful attempts, but was brought back both times. I have scars. Mental and physical.
    But depression, in a way warps your sense of the world. I may be happy now but I sense a calmness and beauty in darkness. Negativity is a kind of art form. Not really sure where I’m going with this jus something me me felt like… I needed to speak. Even if no one ever sees this comment.
    You’ll make it.
    Your strong.
    Your will is infinite and ever lasting.
    Your human, we all have our flaws.
    Your mind is forever, your imagination is your tool, and your body is your catalyst.
    Your loved.
    Your cared for.
    You.. will always be you.
    Even if the demons crawl up your throat, you’ll ravaging your thoughts and feelings, digging their claws into your heart and corrupting your ideas, even if you gut pushed so far down the hole that light no longer reaches your eyes…
    You’ll make it.
    You’ll make it out.
    It.. takes time. It takes strength. I’ve .. lost many friends to their own demons who controlled their hands with tools to end their timeline here. I’ve sat with them many times and have even heard the demons win while speaking on the phone.
    And many times, many many times, my demons have almost won.
    I’m not sure again, if anyone will ever see this.
    But please, hear my words, absorb it, let them soak into the fibers or your being that
    You will make it.
    It will end.
    Find those things that let your heart scream out.
    Find those things that make your brain roar out its emotions.
    You will be okay.
    No matter which point those demons hold is on you, look forward. Move with every step as the ball and chains weigh down your pace.
    The air warpingnaround your body like syrup.
    You’ll win.
    Even if you get so close to letting them steal your life
    You. Will. Survive.
    Please, trust in my words. Find that voice in your mind, find that small orb of light that guides you. That light is still you, you are great.
    Again.. I have no idea where I’m going with this. But for anyone who ever sees this.. please. Keep going. I have conquered mine, I hold a sword filled with every thought I’ve had to swing back at the ghoul hands that drag you to the underworld.
    You are powerful.
    You are strong.
    You are loved. Very loved.
    You have talents.
    You are enough.
    You don’t have to prove yourself for anyone.
    You are enough.
    You are.. enough.
    For anyone who needs to vent, grab hold of a tempory foundation so that they not drift into the endless sea..
    I’m here.
    I have suffered your pains.
    We are all different.
    But I’m here.

Every little task feels so overwhelming and difficult and I feel like I’m doing everything wrong. I don’t know how to live this life and I have this terrible feeling that I don’t belong here. But I don’t want to die and I would never kill myself. I just want everything to magically sort itself out because I am incapable of doing anything by myself. Gosh I feel so worthless and weak.
    Edit: hi and thank you for the upplifting comments. Things are better. Nowadays I dont dare to say things are good even if they are because after saying it I’ve always hit the rock bottom once again. But all of you who relate, it might get better one day. It also might get worse but we have to keep going because of the hope that it might get better. I love and appreciate and respect all of you.

      In short, I think the right answer is the human brain is... retarted, for lighter words, and the only way to completely overcome depression is to find a cure honestly, until that happens you'll just have to cope with it by doping yourself up with things that make you happy...
      Another piece of advice i can give is to stop thinking that everyone life is perfect and to honestly stop thinking life is perfect in general or it needs to be, because if it were so, you'd practically would already be in your idea scenario, but life isn't like that, life is a game, you spawned in it with no control, and you have these elements in the game, now you have to overcome those elements (revert back to what I said above this)
      And for those who don't understand the game theory, basically what I'm saying is there are things in life that are literally out of your control and you have no choice but to accept that fact, weither good or bad, it will be there no matter what, (just as depression) so stop beating yourself up about it and just accept what life has given you, because you can only fake not being depressed for so long before it catches right back up to, but then again I'm just giving advice, you don't have to lesson, but if you're tired and exhausted from running away from depression, like me, this is what I've done, and has it worked 100% no, but I'm a lot happier then I was pretending to be A ok

      Mornings are a weak spot for many people with their negative thoughts. The brain, most of the time, acts as efficiently as possible. Negative thoughts flood in because your brain has thought about those negative things alot in the past, and it has made stronger connections to those thoughts. Therefore, its literaly just more efficient for your brain to move to negative thoughts, because the pathways leading to those thoughts have been paved into highways. It probably happens in the morning because thats when your body is trying to recover its energy, and its trying to be as efficient as possible.

      So very true - and that's because we (not unwisely) hide it from everyone else because what can they do about it anyway and it'll probably just make people pull away. Which it might. But I think depressed people can interact with each other relatively 'normally' as it were - on a similar wave length. And it's also very true that there are varying levels of depression and that is a pretty extensive scale and it depends also on where we are on the scale how much we can communicate. Doing it in this writing format makes it possible for me. Best of luck to you.

      He wants a relationship with you but He is too loving to force His way into your life ❤️

      Do you feel tired? Depressed? Perhaps suicidal. If so you are not alone(Hundreds of Millions suffer worldwide) ; God is standing right next to you waiting for you to ask for help. Give Jesus a chance and watch your life flip for the better and you will be set free.

    "Depression made me think that ending my own life wouldn't just me the best for me but for other people too" that's where I'm at right now. I would never end my own life, but I'm at that point where I'm thinking that way.

      To put it plainly God doesn’t want you depressed one of the fruits of the spirit is called Joy (Happiness). Jesus wants to give you joy that never runs out. Don’t give up, ask Jesus for help and watch your situation flip. God wants to show you He is real if only you would let Him. You have nothing to lose but everything to gain.
      Psalm 34:18 The LORD is near to those who have a broken heart, And saves such as have a contrite spirit.
