    I cannot simplify your take any further, however, I'd like to add from what I've experienced throughout the years of constant struggle and relapse with depression; Is that no matter how hard you try to pick up new hobbies or try to motivate yourself back to being productive like you used to, it will always drag you down because like what you said it 'evaporates joy' whether you are trying to get back into old interests or new ones.

      It may be a combination of burnout and depression. Use that motivation to fuel something you enjoy doing, if you have no idea what you enjoy doing, here are some ideas: reading adventure series like Percy Jackson/Harry Potter will take you on a journey with the characters, writing a story make help, responding to comments on videos about depression, join a club at school, etc. I am still a little depressed but stuff like this is really helping. I feel stronger and happier than I was before.

    I don't think I'm depressed I just feel bouts of hopelessness, sadness, and loneliness. I don't have any in person freinds to talk eye to eye; face to face and it makes me sad. Sometimes when I get so sad my heart hurts and it rises over 100BPM. I wish to cry but nothing comes out and the only thing I can do is snuggle up with my favorite dog stuffed animal. I wish the stuffed animal was bigger.

      Five Nights at Freddy's Star Matthew Lillard Teases Prep for Franchise Villain Role
      Russ Burlingame
      02/21/2023 08:56 am EST
      As the feature film adaptation of Five Nights at Freddy's kicks into gear, star Matthew Lillard has taken to social media to tease his role as William Afton, the main antagonist in the film. The actor, who has starred in everything from Scooby-Doo to Twin Peaks, is apparently on set for "prep," likely because they need to cast his face in order to create some kind of prosthetic or model for the character of Afton, who is generally depicted as a very stylized, purple humanoid.
      In the world of the games, Afton is the co-founder of Fazbear Entertainment, the founder of Afton Robotics...oh, and a serial killer. Afton also somehow manages to constantly cheat death and come back over and over again, no matter how many times he seems to be defeated.
      You can see his post below.
      For those of you who don't know, Five Nights at Freddy's is a video game franchise that launched in 2014. It centers on a number of animatronic animals who initially look like the Chuck E. Cheese band, but in fact turn out to be more like the Terminator. The franchise became a sensation almost immediately after it was released, and by 2015, Warner Bros. had acquired the film rights, with the adaptation being in and out of development nonstop since. In the time since that happened, the series has expanded with sequels, books, comics, and even music and merchandise.
      The series has also spawned a number of imitators, including the Roblox game Rainbow Friends and a twisted horror adaptation of the '70s TV series The Banana Splits.
      Besides Lillard, the Five Nights at Freddy's movie -- which is being produced by Blumhouse, who are working with the Jim Henson Creature Shop to make the movie's monsters -- will star Josh Hutcherson as Mike Schmidt, Piper Rubio as Mike's younger sister, and Mary Stuart Masterson as an unnamed villain. Emma Tammi will direct.

    The thing that really clicked for me was realizing that the word "depressed", outside of the medical sense, means "pushed or held down", and that's exactly what depression does to a person. It pushes down your emotions and desires, and just holds everything down. You are like a button under the weight of a thumb: depressed.

      That's a great insight. Depression can indeed feel like a weight that holds you down, making it difficult to find motivation, joy, or hope. It's important to remember that depression is a treatable condition, Remember to engage in self-care activities, and finding purpose or meaning in life can also be helpful in managing depression.

      If life sometimess life appears to be depressing please try the following suggestions:
      1. GENTLE BREATHING
      1. stand up,
      2. roll your shoulders back slightly
      3. Keep your head up
      4. Slowly inhale through your nose for 4 seconds
      5. Hold the breath for 2 seconds
      and Exhale for 4 seconds
      - Repeat this 5 or more times
      6 Have a glass of water
      2. SIT IN NATURE (FLOWERS)
      1. Sit in a colourful flowery garden and breathe slowly and deeply feeling each breath go in your nostrils and out of your mouth.
      2. Listen to calm quietly played music (Live musicians or through headphones)
      3. DAILY SUNLIGHT
      1. Sit in direct sunlight for 20 minutes or more in nature or an area where you feel comfortable
      2. Repeat slow deep breaths
      3. Adjust seating position to be comfortable
      4. Keep the spine upright, but lower back relaxed.
      4. STAR JUMPS (JOG, FITNESS)
      1. Gently stretch your whole body for 10 minutes
      2. Do either 6/10/12 star jumps,
      3. Rest for 1 minute
      Your blood will be pumping and you will feel energized.
      Stretch after.
      * Only do this routine a maximum of twice a day,
      * Do no more than 40 x star jumps a day.
      If you are tired hold a squat position for 30 seconds stationery palms and stand up to rest, repeat 4 times.
      You will feel warmer and energised maybe also slightly out of breath.
      Any symptoms, thoughts or feelings you previously had will be less heavy make you have a more positive feeling about yourself and your life.

      Yes. Small things can trigger depression for me, as I'm naturally very sensitive. I've got OCD too. I recently had a trigger for depression, and when I explain it to people they think I'm being ridiculous. I feel lonely for that reason. I find life extremely difficult, but don't want to burden people. I don't feel like doing anything. I hope you're doing OK. Take care

      I feel that I m burdening people around me if I share with my family they will get sad I have to be happy around them but inside I feel empty sometimes I get triggered over small things no matter how much I try to control myself I just end up shouting crying then I feel so bad about myself and why I am even present I am of no use never was a good kid all my siblings were always better and I make my family sad it's not that we lack anything we are financially very stable so they ask tell me atleast not spoil the atmosphere by being sad as I got everything..... I don't understand why its with me I have enough but still don't feel happy . So I think the least I can do is behave normal and happy around them and not cause any trouble until I live .....

    I have a constant low mood and have since I can remember, back to when I was like 5. I don’t go a single day without crying or feeling so numb I can’t even cry. Lately it’s gotten worse than it ever has, so I’ve been watching mental health videos trying to help myself stay alive. Depression is absolutely no joke.

    I think the sad thing about depression is as much as you try and help yourself you need a push out of the hole, when I asked for help alot of people including health professionals left me in the hole and told me to "pull it together". Seeing people for who they are is more depressing

    • @grownosis
      @grownosis Год назад +3

      It can be incredibly difficult to reach out for help when you're struggling with depression, and it's even more disheartening when those you turn to for support don't understand or don't take your struggles seriously. Unfortunately, this is a common experience for many people with depression. However, it's important to remember that seeking help is a brave and proactive step, and that it's okay to keep trying until you find the support and resources that work for you. There are many forms of treatment and support available, including therapy, medication, self-care practices, and support groups. It may take time to find what works for you, but it's important to keep trying and to never give up hope.

      Thanks but for me to get to a doctor will takes some time since i am young and cant make an appointment my mom is kind of apart from since she is in love with the worst person ever and is turning into him and my dad is dealing with anger issues my sister who i usually went too when i felt sad is getting her own home and my brother is already "gone" my grandpas are dead and my grandmothers i dont see a lot my best friends just went away from my school so i find peace on the internet by talking with other but no i cant do that bc then i am "adicted" to my phone then i bought a pc to play games but that pc is now at my moms home yes my parents are divorced cant get worse? No it can one of our cats is gonna be gone bc its my sisters and she is moving nobody wants too see me cry bc i am a boy except my sister but she is gonna go away sorry for repeating it constantly but i am struggling so i put my problems online but i know people will call me a pick me and when i hide it i am emotionless when i talk about i am attention seeker and when someone reads this they dont care that eliminates. Every person i trust and leaves me with. Noone to talk too except if someone wants too but i dont wanna talk to people online bc i am young and just a "kid" so who cares "only teenagers and adults are depressed" my friend group is dying and so am i my hopes are gone and no i am not suicidal so dont worry about that but i dont know what is happening I commented this underneath your comment and i hope someone finds this and gives me advice but this comment is probably gonna rot away bc noone has a big enough attention span to read this all and i just cant stop writing its like i am trying to tell myself my entire life on a piece of paper

I loved drawing but now I barely draw, and rn as I'm trying to draw I'm just.. not able to focuse on it much. I only leave my room really to eat and got to school. And my parents keep telling me to come out of my room more. I don't want to tell anyone about how I'm feeling because I've learned that nobody will. I went to therapy a lot between like 9 to 12 (I'm 16 now, almost 17). I've been through a lot.. having to parent my siblings and dealing with mental abuse is just absolutely wonderful... I have terrible self esteem..
