My longtime friend is almost catatonic. He has went to crisis center, they let him out in 5 days. He made his way to Salvation army. We took him to an ER. they kept him 5 days and let him out to halfway house to walk all day to find work. He can't work. I've known him 25 years..this is real and its not normal
Good day. I run a blog/vlog that helps people overcome such. May I please have access to some of your videos to help people with, and probably a working email to contact you through? Thanks
For anyone here struggling with severe depression, I believe in you. I was suicidal two years ago and now i am doing better. Please be patient I know exactly how you feel. The despair, hopelessness, not enjoying anything anymore i know it all. However, you guys will be able to overcome it. Try reprograme your mind little by little by saying something positive. Finally, a word from my heart (i love you whoever is struggling with depression)
I'm an on unlimited income..had divorce.plus lost my grown kids through it..but my mom started it.i was sick..I had to stay out in sun..we lived in woods .no lights..wood stove..isolation..
I was doing so well, and I have no idea why depression just crept up on me again today. I barely move out of my bed today, and it's bringing back horrible memories.
@@walle8642 💯 I have been doing amazing for so long, but then the depression cake out of nowhere. It didn't last more than 12 hours though, so thank God. Working Out, Eating Clean, Training MMA, Learning New Things, Expanding my overall mental capacity as well as knowledge, etc. Those things fulfill me. Stay Blessed. Thanks.
Me too and I'm a chronic pot user. Quitting today because even tho life is boring without weed it's miserable half the time with it . Maybe life won't be boring after a while of quitting. I've been using heavily 8 years
I feel exactly how this guy said he felt at the beginning of the video. I don't feel suicidal but I also feel like I don't even wanna live anymore. Having a son I know that I need to be here for keeps me going but at the same time I feel like an inadequate parent.
Me too but l am 74 and have no purpose to my life. I just feel like dying. It’s been a lifetime of this and l am so worn out by it all. I hope you get better though so sending my blessings to you.
I realize I go through cycles of this every year. Doubting myself, low self esteem, sadness and hurt. Being told I have no reason to feel that way because I have a good life. It doesn’t help. You can’t just bring yourself through it.
My depression got worse when my family members and friends isolated me thinking I'm too proud to maintain contact with them when in fact I was dying inside
God cares abt u. Wish u accept Jesus Christ as your Savior so u can go to heaven after this life. God doesn't expect you to be perfect nor sinless. He just wants u to believe in Him as your Savior for your sins so u can go to heaven after this life. You are precious.
@@small_fries7573 you offered no help at all. all you did was shove God in the mans face and try to convert him. its all you Christians care about, adding more to your cult. screw off with your recruiting tactics.
I remember going for a jog at the gym, thinking it would remove my depression. I was depressed while jogging, I went home and just curled up in a ball in my room for the rest of the day
That’s how I felt the day before yesterday. Usually the gym gives me a burst of energy but lately my brain is In a fog. Everything feels dark and my future looks bleak but I’m trying to stay positive
Feel bad 4 ya. Maybe u can try boxing or shadow boxing. Or muay Thai like I'd used to. It helps u knock some kinks outta ur nervous system. Pray to God 4 help and guidance. Sometimes God helps 🙏 me, but not most of da time. Get some homies 2 run with u. Make it fun and weekly.
@@Dreone-1 da demons r fo sho real. Some peeps see them. They haunt ya life. Keep Jesus close via prayers n reading the Bible if u want 2. But yeah, I gots some weird af neighbors around me! Delusional, miserable male neighbors 🙄.
I don't want to be depressed. But nothing makes me happy anymore. Everything is meaningless, I don't do anything, I don't care how I look. The only thing I still do is take care of my hair. I struggle to sleep, then I struggle to get out of bed. Somebody save me😭😭😭😭😭
JESUS WILL SAVE YOU ...ASK HIM TO SAVE YOU AND START READING YOUR BIBLE ...START IN THE BOOK OF JOHN NOW !!!!!! FIND A GOOD , I FULL GOSPEL , BIBLE BELIEVING CHURCH ...JESUS LOVES YOU ❤️✝️❤️ JESUS IS YOUR ONLY HOPE 🙏
@@VivekGuptaHMH I have tried every antidepressant there is. The Dr's don't know why but they all cause me to suffer extreme cramps and spasms in my muscles and make it hell to move. There is no good choice. I've tried therapy, and it hasn't been affective. I need the meds which do help my depression lift but I literally can't take them because then I'm unable to move. I hope they will approve of the ketamine nasal spray someday soon before it's too late for me. I don't even know if it will work but maybe
@@brendaburrow3745 but other illnesses have some sense of "what works or doesn't work in most situations" even the worst diagnosis such as cancer heart disease diabetes has a general cause and effect. Mental illness cannot be traced or tracked and not only different in other people but different in our selves on a daily basis. 3 years ago my daughter age 35 was diagnosed stage 3 breast cancer. It was undoubtedly the worst time of my life but there were statistics that allowed them to proceed with various treatments with again statistics of success. yes our family went with her through her hell, she had mastectomy she had reconstructive surgery that was again hell but through it all she felt that there was a definite path - if we do this then this should be the outcome. We were blessed because they did that and the outcome was my daughter had a daughter at age 40. But there is no path that tells anyone how to treat mental illness. And instead of progressing with treatment options more and more those diagnosed with mental illness are ignored. at 68 I am on medicare. I have to have a telemedicine appointment with a psychiatrist in Iowa (I live in Georgia) because there are no Georgia providers in my network. People can't see mental illness and because of its stigma those of us who have been diagnosed are very very good at hiding our diagnosis
I spend days in my room. I am the most unproductive I’ve ever been. I lost my job. I lost friendships because I don’t nurture them anymore. I take antidepressants and I go to therapy once a week but, I still can’t kick this shit. And I’m sooooo sick of the redundancy. I miss having something to look forward to
@@estevanrodriguez9078 I hate it. I hope you feel better soon. Seems it’s just a vicious cycle, years of this and then a year or two without it. I am praying for the day I feel like my old self again. I’ll pray for you too
I lost all my friends after quitting cannabis and alcohol. I guess that’s all we had in common. I have been looking for a job for 6 months and I feel like a total loser. I finally have an upcoming interview but I’m not necessarily excited about it because I feel so worn out from depression. I’ve been through a lot the last few years. I’m so exhausted with who I am and the poor life choices I made before getting sober. Really hoping I can turn things around. I literally typed in “crippling depression” to find this video. 😓
I'm usually the happiest person around but recently this past year I've felt so depressed, I've struggled with every part of life and have lost all confidence. I know I'll eventually get through this but it does feel like a very long and lonely road. I'm not suicidal but I also wouldn't fight for my life if death was right around the corner. I do believe anyone can get through this. If you're reading this just know you're not alone in feeling this way, as isolating as it feels you can and will get through this 🙏🏼❤️
That's what is am going through is well lisa. I was outgoing enjoying the life. Love to joke around and was a very humble guy but don't no why one day alover a sudden i got this stress and then anxiety depression. I left my job. I didn't want to come out of my house, my room even out of my bed. I don't want to see any of my friends I don't want to do anything and I don't even care if I die tomorrow. I can't enjoy the life no more. Nothing is getting my excited in the life no more. I don't no if I can get over this feelings and recover again and be back me again. I don't no what to do and I am just preying to the god to save me.
@Ulas Toprak Aw Ulas, honestly although I wish this feeling upon nobody, it feels reassuring that we are not alone in feeling this way. Please feel free to message me whenever you like because although it seems like we'll never get out of this place maybe we can help each other a little bit too. I am also jobless at the moment and struggle to find motivation to do anything, which really isn't like me, I was always the hardest worker in the room, getting up at 6 every morning to work, study go to the gym, work overtime whenever I could but now everything brings emptiness and I've given up on all of it.
I believe I suffer from periods of deep depression. Not sure if my depression is related to this but I get an extreme nauseating sinking feeling in my stomach as well as a loss of appetite and energy. Not sure how to describe other symptoms however but it's very difficult to get motivated with physical work. I believe I'm suffering from it right now and I found this video in an attempt to find tips to cope for the time being. Unfortunately I feel left empty handed.
Hoping you find peace and can overcome your demons and challenges. Reach out and seek help from every avenue you can to try and stop it from becoming all consuming. Have you ever heard of cognitive behavioural therapy?
I know exactly how you feel! try finding anything that would make you happy even if it means learning to do something, if you get good at it find something else, as long as you find something to keep you occupied it will help. The best thing I found to help with depression is to find someone you trust and just talk to them about it as it feels like a burden that you need to get off your chest, finding people who will support you or whom to share what you feel with helps allot. I am sharing this with you to get over my depression as I feel by trying to help makes you feel better about yourself!
May I ask how long you've suffered with this? What have you tried that may have helped I'm 32 been on alot medicines and know it can be so frustrating and overwhelming trying to find answers and get to the bottom of things!
@@raventhorX Oic sorry to ask I'm 32 and have had doctors say I wasn't actually bipolar but did show alot of signs of major depression! They did get to watch me daily for a few months in a hospital I was 16 then and hated dealing with all that on top of probation!
They can and should do better than ECT. Although it helps some people it also messes others up big time. Depression and anxiety have caused me to isolate for decades. I dont have a support system. I cant keep.doing this on my own with meds that do not work and inability to find a quality therapist who is right for me as I live in a rural area . At almost 60 years old I dont have stories to tell and vacations etc to look back on. I'm tired of feeling ashamed of being lost my entire damn life. I am ashamed to be alive. That is how it feels and yes I realize how insane that sounds
I came here to try & understand what's happening to me, to my mind...& this has given me some kind of clarity, though the only time I experience mind chatter, is when it's extreme, it's almost constant, during/after a state of quite deep depression. The first time it happened many years ago, it frightened me as I couldn't switch off from it, it was a constant dialog of chatter, like commentary. Through my depression, I realised that I had nothing else to think about, as i'd lost interest in almost everything & life felt very uneventful, very boring. I'd lost interest in all the things I previously found interesting, exciting & worthy. After alot of stresses in life this past 2 years, i've unfortunately gone back into a depression & the same feelings, plus recently this mind chatter, which at times i've found very dibilatating. Luckily, as much as I don't like it, theres only been a few times were it's overwhelmed me, which has made me panic. In my first episode of it many years ago, it was so constant that I had to play loud music much of the time, to drown it out. I'm hoping that, as I come out of my depression & I gain back interests in things, in life...it will again subside. My understanding is that it comes on with me, when my mind is empty of thought, of what is usually my interests, yes even washing up & daily tasks. I call it an empty head & mind, that requires something to do...so it chats, mind chatter. I hope that this is understood to the professionals here & maybe helps others. Thank you & all the best to all.
This mind chatter you're talking about sounds what I'm suffering with, currently spent the whole of 2021 severely depressed for the first time ever and extremely sleep deprived and when I try to sleep I play out and act scenarios in my head of full on conversations to other people and sometimes myself and it seems so real sometimes I can hear the voices so clearly and I'm not even attempting to do this infact I'm going as far as trying to stop it but I can't. Does this sound similar to your mind chatter?
@@bendodsworth2373 The mind chatter he is talking about is different. It is a feeling that your mind is empty, like a void yet you can process information when given to you and remember things just fine. This feeling of not knowing what to think about yet you think about everything at the same time and it drives you crazy. You can’t escape it, and when you do it only takes your mind a moment before it reminds you that you are depressed and constantly overwhelmed. You want to think about something, anything but you can’t.
@@Omar-bx5wq same my if say stop my mind say no you can't if say something good my mind will stop on the spot if i want to fell happy one reply from mind and everything vanissh
A lot of us are struggling to depression and although it may be slightly different symptoms, know that we are also trying to understand ourselves with this disease and that we are trying everyday our best and different approaches to overcome. The road may be long, but my hope is that we will all find a way out
Mind chatter is not a bad thing IF you are already receiving help from a professional. Because you’re emptying your mind, open to new ideas and thoughts. What you don’t want is endless, frantic, paranoid thoughts. Let’s say you come up with some sort of idea or theory as to how to help yourself, in this state you will obsess about what you think is the solution but in reality is nothing. They are both shitty states of mind to be in. Unfortunately , I bounce between the two all day every day.
I suffered from sever depression about 25 years ago and it really affected my GPA in college as I didn't care about anything and my GPA was not a concern as I didn't even think that my life was worth living. I have recovered from that depression thankfully within a year. I think depression comes from loneliness and not having the things that bring you joy in life. Having an active social life in my opinion is important to beat depression, unfortunately not everyone have people who care about them and who would do anything for them to get them through depression. My advice is to try anything that would bring you joy or a sense of purpose, even if it is cleaning a room or rearranging something that gives you a sense of accomplishment can help. Try finding anything that would bring you joy and just do it, I have another suggestion is go out and take a walk, it helps.
Yeah. Helping others online can be very happy too 😊. Cuz many peeps r depressed, suicidal, angry as heck, and drug addicts. To encourage them will help all of us see dat there r many others who need encouragement 🙏
I'm dealing with chronic depression and it leads me into panic too , a lot of anxiety . It sucks , especially not having someone by your side everyday to help get you thru it or try and take your mind off of it. This is something BIG that has helped me, but the only time I even feel okay is when I have someone there with me , helping me get thru it , like... Being alone , and having these problems are the WORST . I am scared to go to the doctor but know that I need to, they can probably fix my brain 🧠 I've always been a deep thinker , I've had depression and anxiety but NEVER as bad as it's gotten this year .. my chronic depression became chronic , after my first acid trip .. I was not in the right head space , it was a bitter sweet experience.... Something I NEVER should have done though and now I'm worried I'm stuck like this
I'm sure everyone is different but I took acid during a very depressing/anxious time of my life and at first it helped bc it made me realize a lot of things. However, the month afterwards I was always depressed and sometimes worse than usual. Eventually I levelled out but I still had to go to therapy/a psychiatrist where I was diagnosed with major depression and PTSD. I still struggle but I promise if you can make it to a doctor, therapist, etc, it's worth it!! I still use the coping skills I learned from therapy which I haven't gone to in 3 months
One of the ways to overcome depression is to try sensitize people who don't know what it really means. This means talking about your experience and helping other people take their mental health seriously. You can still impact your world positively.
I'm 26 and haven't achieved nothing much in my life. This thought makes me depressed all the time for past 6 months. I don't have much friends. I feel hopeless. Somebody please help me.😢😢😢
The first thing you have to say to yourself is that you are not alone at this phase . One day you are getting out of this phase into a better one . Now you have to say to yourself I'm capable of standing by myself to do great things and I do whatever I want to be in my life . Just Take a big breath and say Hello to your new life and new journey .
I know it doesn't feel like it and I know it sounds like a cliche but you are not alone with your struggles. Millions of us are going through the same battle. You're already over the first hurdle. Just reaching out is a win. Keep going. It will make sense one day. God bless.
Hey there , I felt when u said help. I'm going threw this . Your not alone. Keep fighting. It's hard but ask God for guidance he will help . I will pray for you
Mate Now im fckd again but exactly at 26 i just started to live . Moved to abroad (london) and managed to build up an almost full life in just a couple of years from absolute scratch. Friends ,girls, girlfriend, clients, own business, employees, travels, surfing ...etc . All that happened within 3 years including the language learning . Extreme improvement. My mates /employees all did the same around the same age.. ..so no need to worry quiet the opposit. This is the time to start whatever u want. Now u grown up enough and have the power to accomplish things. Just be strong and focused on the road and the good.....dont let yourself distract. Just do it ;) Ull find the way .
2021 was the hardest, darkest time of my life. I was physically, emotionally, mentally, spiritually BROKEN. But now I feel genuinely GRATEFUL and BLESSED that I had to go through that phase because GOD has graciously REVEALED Himself to me in miraculous ways. I am fortunate that He allowed me to know Him at a very young age, but this year is so much SPECIAL because of what WE (yes, GOD and me) have been through last year. He showed me how POWERFUL prayers truly are when I started to focus on WHO HE IS rather than who I am, on WHAT HE CAN DO rather than what I deserve. The experience was MAGICAL. He showed up BIG TIME and assured me that HE is indeed a LISTENING and RESPONDING GOD. Oh how my faith has skyrocketed as a result! Now more than ever, I have very bright HOPE for my future because I experienced first hand how RELIABLE God is. And for that I will forever be grateful. GLORY BE TO GOD, MY EVER FAITHFUL FATHER. ♥️♥️♥️ To everyone who's struggling right now, please know that JESUS LOVES YOU. HE DIED FOR YOU. He wants to give you peace and joy. Please open up your hearts and let Him move in your lives. "Because he loves Me,” says the Lord, “I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges My Name. He will call on Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him." (Psalm 91:14-15) Please hold on to this bible verse because WHATEVER GOD SAYS, HE FULFILLS. ✝️
@Lochan - LOL! Ahhhh! ..... Yes! ...... the invisible guy in sky fantasy! Funny how you see these stories appear in comment section of videos, but never come across a single person in real life that has been saved by this crap .....
@@montesa9136Stories like this are everywhere because GOD TRULY EXISTS. Different people from different walks of life are sharing how they personally experienced God's goodness and grace. May you have a personal encounter with Him, too, Montesa. I will pray for you.
@@lochan8180 @Lochan - LOL! If I had a penny for everytime someone has said "I will pray for you" I would be richer than Elon Musk, Bill Gates, & Jeff Bezos all put together. Don't you religious Nut Bars even fell a little bit Silly when your prayers are never answered? Does it not make you question your own sanity? Just because some ancient scripture from the 7th century, written by some unknown authors makes the audacious claim there is some supernatural, celestial being that has infinite power over everything exists, does not mean it's so. This idea of a god is a great story but it hasn't been able to stand up to the rigours of science. Why do you think religions are called "a faith?" '...... it's because god cannot be proven. Until, such a time the claims the bible makes can provide demonstrable, repeatable, scientific proof they remain nothing more than a story. Do you believe in Santa Clause, Batman, the Easter Bunny, the Tooth Fairy & Spiderman? There are books out there claiming these people exist also. Instead of making nonsensical claims like "GOD TRULY EXISTS", put your money where you mouth is & "PROVE IT". So far not a single person has been able to. Tell you what: why don't you set up a lunch date with god & all his buddies. I would love to meet this fellow I've heard do much about. No excuses now ........ BTW - what kind of drugs do you do?
It sucks to know that I can’t function without medication, but distracting myself from the issue seems to do a lot better. Yeah in a way it’s avoiding the issue but at the same time I’m finding joy in things for the first time :)
Consider the things in your life that you are thankful for. Be appreciative, don’t focus on what is not perfect. We cannot experience a perfect existence here in this material world. Most other living beings in this world have much greater suffering than we do.
I’m happy for him; I hope I can find that kind of relieve some day. Severe depression hits different when you’re literally lonely; physically. Very interesting post
Some guy in here mentioned what he calls “brain chatter.” I thought I was the only one experiencing this lately. I’ve never been one you’d considered overly happy but I’ve also never been depressed like I am now. I got an MRI exactly one month ago and that’s the moment it started. I could not and still cannot pinpoint a reason for my depression but every day since I’ve been very down. I don’t have any emotion, the things I enjoy just aren’t fun anymore. Not even video games make me feel at ease anymore. Luckily I don’t have any issues sleeping but I fall asleep feeling depressed and wake up feeling the same. There are bouts throughout the day where I feel normal and then it goes back into gloominess. It literally feels like a brain fog filled with negative thoughts. The thing is tho, those negative thoughts don’t have any real dialogue to them. It’s just a feeling of misery, dread, doom, numbness, and hopelessness all mixed together into one. I really want to feel happy and I’m confused why I’m depressed. I’m taking steps to see a psychologist and I really don’t want to be on meds for this as they won’t fix my issues. Luckily this video gave me hope that there is effective treatment for this.
Beware, ECT does more harm than good for many people. After 2 so called treatments, I had amnesia for one week. It made my symptoms worse. I have ptsd over having agreed to ECT. It's been like a nightmare since then. ECT is very profitable for psychiatrists however.
Honestly I know all of you people are doing the best you can and thinking you're helping all of us people. Problem is some of us people can't be "fixed"
1:36 hits different. To all the younger men out there a girl like this that supports and wants to see you thrive like that is better than any model or famous girl you think you want. Trust me man…
He had very severe depression, not the mild level of depression that most people experience during the week. Given the chaos in society, I personally believe it's normal to have some minor amount of anxiety and depression. If depression and anxiety levels are debilitating, then it must be treated professionally immediately. I'm just trying to deal with a society that's far more insane than even the 1960's when I was a kid.
Would've been alot more helpful if it's free.. i seriously think therapy across the world should be free.. everyone deserves their true spirit and happiness back.. im feeling anxious, traumatized, paranaoid and depressed for years now, ive never told anybody or my family.. im 22 yrs old.. i still continue to move forward and tire myself from work to help my family.. but no one knows it's my mentality that is exhausted.. ive had drug problems back then, ive faced extreme emotional stress too gave me PTSD.. ive been on a extremely toxic environment and people but somehow im still sane.. I won't even wish my mental demons on my worse enemies..
Saying Positive Affirmations Daily when you get up in the morning...plus have a Mantra you say daily...example.."I am Enough", " "My dad is always with me" repeat throughout the day. ..music helps as well...for me..."The Beatles" I listen closely to their harmonies...I find it very healing.....
You have not failed. You are awesome and Amazing. You can't move forward effectively by looking backwards. Forget your past mistakes and missed opportunities. You can still bless the world. I've been depressed for close to 3 years now and what has kept me going is my purpose. Yes I'm not happy with my current situation but I'm positive it won't stop me from making impact and fulfilling my purpose. I love you ❤️
That's not failure. Just because most people get married it doesn't mean happiness for everyone,just because most people go after big careers and money again it doesn't mean it brings completion and happiness. If these things however are what you want to have in life it's never too late to have them. Don't compare your self and success to others. You have your own unique path.
48 is still young. But I know what you mean. I'm 36, no husband, no house, fired from my last job. I like to think about artists that made it in their 60s. The composers, the bukowski's of the world. Comparison is the thief of gratitude if your comparing doesn't inspire you. So fuck everyone else. If we can walk and wipe your own ass, we still have time.
It's different when you don't have anyone to help fight it or recommend you to go see anyone. It be so easy for me to just disappear and it'll be months before someone found me... But I'm too much of a coward to do it myself. I'll just let it happen because money is tough rn and healing is expensive
Talk to me... please. I feel what you're saying and I don't know how to deal with it. I want to dissappear but I know it would kill my kids. How do I go on? I wish I could talk with you about this. I feel like I have no one.
@@stellaancimer8505 I think I'm at my lowest and I just don't know what to do. I don't have anyone to talk to that would understand or relate. I just feel so lost

I been stuck at home for months, I recently last year had fallen into a deep depression, felt like I was going insane and I was isolating myself. Got a job, but nothing change, still felt empty inside and directionless. Got a different job and suddenly things were going better, I was on better shape, started to socialize more, but it was also a lot of stress, and I couldn’t get time to see my girlfriend. Lost my job due to stress and now I feel stuck and depressed, been isolating at home for about 2 months, I just see days past by as if I was only existing, not living them. Don’t know when this is going to end but I am sure that I want to make a change in my life and that I will push trough, wish me luck guys. I hope you all are safe and doing well
I had 2 healthy teeth extracted for orthodontics and I immediately went into chronic depression and then I did my research and saw that tooth loss causes decrease in gray matter in ur brain and causes anxiety and depression. People around me think I’m overthinking but I being so fuckijg happy felt the change immediately and now I’m trying to do research to reset my brain and do cognitive behavioural therapy and shit but man idk if I’ll ever get back to my previous state because damn this feels like chronic depression and I mean I’m never gonna get my teeth back and my nerves are severed now and it scares me that this will stay forever .
Oh wow is this why I’ve been severely depressed for 8 years? I extracted all my teeth 8 years ago and I’ve been depressed ever since but thought it was because of my condition
@@noraaa8479 i think it could be a possibility because ur teeth are also a really imp part of ur body. Someone once told me losing teeth can be close to losing a limb. Ur teeth serve such an important function and people say stimulus from the teeth help stimulate nerves in ur brain to perform tasks like releasing saliva and stuff. As per chinese medicine, ur teeth and ur organs are connected through meridians or something so i believe that theres a lot of underlying things in our physical health which in modern day people underestimate thag could affect us mentally. Depression could be a symptom of something bigger sometimes
I have this also!! I just think I got off a five month long major depression after a fight with a friend of 24 years. Alot thongs ensued after the altercation and I swear, I came out better for it!! .y little Dachshooundand I should be okay. After 5 months, today is the first day, I actually feel better! The Sun being out has everything to do with it!
I'm very happy for you that this worked. But it doesn't work for everyone. I've tried everything under the sun. Even had ECT's. And recently had RTMS - the last hope. And it did nothing for me. So, what works for someone, doens't work for all. Hope it will continue for you to work!
Ive suffered with ocd for the last 12 years. Theres no life with ocd. I look at myself and realise why the hell havnt i achieved nothing. Never held a long term girlfriend in my life. Havnt had a proper career. This condition ruins me, i feel disabled. absolute crippling. My minds a paradox and i feel like theres no way out. I feel lonely and broken. Ive got dreams that i want to pursue but cant do them because of ocd. Your basically crippled with ocd. I wouldnt wish this condition on anyone absolute torture. The most upsetting thing is i want a life but i cant. In tears everyday with this condition. Makes me go down to my knees. But i have something in spades thats willpower and determination going through the havoc of ocd each day and still standing. I get pride knowing i go through each day with my mind having to battle all the time and being trapped in my thoughts. Its a housebound condition. I take cold showers daily for the past decade and i do my exercise. Rest of time im housebound as its a housebound condition. Finally made a move after 12 years and seeking help. Hopefully i can recover and learn how to manage my paradox of a mind thats overactive. Life is so difficult with this disorder. Maybe just accept i have ocd and life gave it to me and always remember its not my fault. I will keep being in tears and going through the agony this condition gives me. At the moment i feel like im not going to have a life. But i do understand that could change so dont rule out the possibility. Ocd is my fulltime job battling my mind all day everyday. Im going to look a this as medievil torture, and think i will be more resilent later on if when i recover. I like everyones stories here and wanted to share my battle with mental health.
Psilocybin saved my life. I was addicted to heroin for 15 years and after Psilocybin treatment I will be 3 years clean in September. I have zero cravings. This is something that truly needs to be more broadly used in addiction treatment.
Psychedelics definitely have potential to deal with mental health issues such as anxiety and depression, I would like to give them a try but haven't found any legit grower to get it.
Depression is a very nasty thing, its severity cannot be estimated by the common man at all, but by strengthening positive thinking, it can be improved to a great extent. I suffered from this thing in 2018 but by the grace of Almighty I have controlled it. Its not my fault to have it . I believe, its from God and we have to beqr it patently nothing is permanent it will be pass soon
Can I ask what you do while using acid to help you with depression? I love doing LSD but I usually just have a fun night with my significant other. I’ve heard they are bringing this back for types of therapy.
@@JaysonT1 if you're looking through the stigmatic glasses you'll see it that way, for others, it's lifesaving. Sometimes one micro dose of lsd can rewire it. Some are so severe they need to do it over and over until it does its job.
I don't even care if this should kill me, I've already tried many times with failing, so might as well consider this option if things got even more unpleasant than it already had been. My depression had really gotten to me that I've given up looking for a job because it's been unsuccessful and such an agonizing chore, and when I close the window in my apartment, I do it very damn meaningfully after ventilating the room for fresh air... meaning to shut the world out of mine.
I love you ❤️. You ain't here to suffer. I have been battling with it for a while now (severe depression). The physical effects on me are just crazy but I believe I'm recovering. You are not alone on this. You are bigger than this depression and you will overcome.
depression is not somethng i wish even at my worst enemy its horrible dark days and night zero energy you block the world completely with zero control when severe even interferes with your daily duties work family and even most family judges you as a crazy person instead of trying to help out also appettite etc my brain zones out to a world of zero thoughts till you dont even know what day it is etc etc i hope you all and myself find the light someday today im doing somewhat better may god be with us
I know someone that had ECT treatments and they had memory loss and seemed to process information a lot slower. I was told it should only be used as a last resort. I’m sure every result is individual but it’s not gonna be just that easy
a couple days ago i was so happy and thought i was healed because I became me again, I did the things i enjoyed the most and felt so real, it felt so good but a week later it just went down and I was going insane wanting to end it all just fixating whatever it was to kms. It's so hard I dont know where to go and who to go to, I would go to therapy but I have money issues so im not sure what to do
I want to challenge the idea that "nobody wants to be around a depressed person." While it's true that happy people may gravitate towards other happy people, true friends will stick by your side no matter what. It's true that depression can be hard for others to understand, but that doesn't mean we should suffer alone. Our feelings are valid, and we deserve to have support and love from those around us, no matter how we're feeling.
I am suffering so bad from being left after a relationship. I can not make much headway changing my way of thinking and I’m using daily to feel okay. I’m miserable.

Are you okay? When you say you're using every night what do you mean? I'm so low I've found myself doing the same thing... Doing shit i never thought I'd do. Just can't see the point in anything and living is just... painful.
@@isla4953 can I tell you something. It’s exactly two months since I wrote this and I found someone who does not make me feel abandoned daily and tony robbins has helped my mental coping mechanisms that kill me daily and run my head like a wagon wheel. I know all you can think about rn is the person at hand or the problem and can’t see the rainbow yet. But I swear it’s coming. A month ago I cried out to my dad and said if I didn’t feel better in 6 months I was gonna kill myself. Thank god I do. Don’t give up before the magic happens. Growing pains SUCK but life can beautiful I promise. Just look at things through a different lens today. I’m proud of you and I love you!!
My depression is that sometimes I cry a lot, I can't enjoy things I used to I resent food sometimes but at least I can wake up early and take care of my body.
Psilocybin/psychedelic therapy is useful for relieving symptoms of treatment-resistant depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and other mental illnesses. Psilocybin has also been shown to be effective in reducing fear and anxiety.
The thing with mine. Is it comes and goes, everything is fine, things are going in my life, nothing is wrong. Then it just comes on, then I feel wrecked with guilt because I can't do the simple things in life I need to.
my life wasn’t what you consider normal my dad was in and out of my life until we got in a fight my mom has always done crazy things always degraded me bc i was born. when i got older my life spiraled understanding more and more about emotion and vocabulary it got worse and worse i don’t want to admit or give in to “being depressed” but i think i am i’ve had it for 3 years now it gets worse and worse i don’t know how to function like i was 3 years ago i hope it gets better.
I hope things never get this bad for me. Please PRAY for all.if who suffer low self esteem and self loathing. When you feel.that bad about yourself, chances are you will suffer severe depression as you get a little older...
I had ECT 28 years ago. I have never recovered my memory…..I don’t remember major life events, like getting married?…It’s gone! ECT helped only temporarily and I had many treatments. I’m suffering in a horrible depression…nothing matters….I don’t care if I don’t comb my hair for months …I have serious matts….I have struggled with this all my life since childhood. Bupropion and Cymbalta don’t seem to be helping, not sure if I am worse. My husband gets mad, frustrated at me because I’m just not interested in absolutely anything at all. I cuddle with my little Dachshunds who love me know matter what….
Could yours be due to bad gut bacteria? Maybe you have a food allergy or intolerance that is causing this. Research is coming out now showing that the gut plays a major role in treatment -resistant depression. Research results are coming out now, but I experienced it 15 years before. There are also brain abnormalities and tumors, but bad gut bacteria is responsible for many cases of longstanding depression.
@@marylamb6063 Hi Mary , You know,..it’s funny you mention that because I am taking Probiotics and have been for awhile. I miss some days but not many. I keep up on my daily vitamins also. I absolutely believe that many issues and illnesses of many kinds begin in the gut. I have read so many different things on depression that after awhile you aren’t sure who’s really correct and who isn’t.🤷🏻♀️
Depression is very crippling... but, I was trained how to hide it during my time in cps captivity. Took me years to learn how, but I did. No one knows how well I hide it. I am not allowed to cry, complain or stay in bed, it takes every ounce of strength I have to crawl out of bed. Getting wasted everyday helps me hide it better
My depression is crippling me completely. I find joy in nothing anymore. My sons addiction , bullying and violence has squashed me. I wish to give up but im a coward.😢
For family members it is scary. Not only does my old man suffers with those symptoms but we also feel the anguish along side with him and it affects us all.
This was not the most serious depression these are starting stages of depression i have depression from 10 years im.22 im lonely i have zero friends but faith is everything
IV ketamine therapy has helped my son a great deal. The downside is that the costs can be prohibitive. It makes me sick that insurance doesn't cover it yet, at least mine doesn't. I know this video isn't about ketamine, but I want tell as many as I can about it because I didn't know about it until a year ago and it has made a world of difference.
I looked into this but then was told it’s going to be something you have to do every year. It’s expensive worth it if you only need one full treatment.
I need this badly nothing has worked for me 28 years of this crap depression and the military even though I am honored to have served the army it made it worse. So yeah I think I am going to try this.
Excellent topic. I had what I'd consider severe depression even to the point of being hopeless, and was brought out of it immediately by hearing the advice of an expert. It was this. Be thankful for whatever you can be thankful for. It sounds like a contradiction. I know that can be easier said than done. It changes the thought process though. Prior to that I thought I was supposed to think negative thoughts to be realistic. So I had no idea about this approach and it possibly saved my life. The professional was a minister and the premise for this is 1 Thessalonians 5:18, which is be thankful in all circumstances. I had no idea this was a biblical idea. It's worked for me for decades. I don't know how I missed or how it isn't widely applied today, but it works. I'm sure counseling and other approaches work to, but that was absolutely most of the solution for me, and I don't hear it mentioned much.
@@jamaica2010ism When I felt depressed I did a lot of searching and praying for an answer to the way I was thinking and feeling.Then I heard from a counselor who pretty closely addressed what I was thinking, with an easily applied technique, which stunned me, because he was not scheduled to be there and he didn't know me. So I definitely was enthusiastic to try it. I think it totally reset my attitude, and took away any depression. Thank you for you question.
i am done with this life.. i am suffering a lot mentally even everyone close to me is not underatanding this.. i have watched every motivation video its also not working .. somebody plz help other wise i dont want to suicide but some times my mind is not in control. i am afraid i really need help.
Don’t give up I’m suffering from depression and anxiety please go and talk to someone and get help you will get through it the is a light at the end of tunnel please take care
@Guppy, I was there. The fear use to tug at me so bad that I didnt want to fall asleep because I was scared I would die. So many tumes I though about jumping in front of a train or taking my life in some way. I was sooo scared. I learned to pray my way through it and talk to others when I can. Get help, don't fight this battle alone. You will win and win big when others are on your side. So many ppl are will to help, just reach out to someone. (Hospital, counselor, family member, friend. Just say, I need to talk with out being judged.)
Know that all of this will reveal its purpose someday soon. You need to endure through this because when this all comes together, you will soon thereafter be needed to take everything you have gained from all this and use it to help someone that will be in great need of your guidance.
really close friend over the internet just tried to OD today. im very very upset and right now im just trying to find out *SOME SORT OF WAY* that it can be overcome, because the current outlook is that this person who i hold very near and dear to my heart will never somehow escape the cycle of deep dark depression, but i know within my heart that there is a way, im just on a journey right now to try to find out what the way is.

@chgofirefighter - EXACTLY RIGHT!
Exactly!!
Exactly...
The fact that you keep telling us how it's so easily fixed makes us feel even more like failures
No joke that's the case with alot of illnesses
@@brendaburrow3745 but other illnesses have some sense of "what works or doesn't work in most situations" even the worst diagnosis such as cancer heart disease diabetes has a general cause and effect. Mental illness cannot be traced or tracked and not only different in other people but different in our selves on a daily basis.
3 years ago my daughter age 35 was diagnosed stage 3 breast cancer. It was undoubtedly the worst time of my life but there were statistics that allowed them to proceed with various treatments with again statistics of success. yes our family went with her through her hell, she had mastectomy she had reconstructive surgery that was again hell but through it all she felt that there was a definite path - if we do this then this should be the outcome. We were blessed because they did that and the outcome was my daughter had a daughter at age 40.
But there is no path that tells anyone how to treat mental illness. And instead of progressing with treatment options more and more those diagnosed with mental illness are ignored. at 68 I am on medicare. I have to have a telemedicine appointment with a psychiatrist in Iowa (I live in Georgia) because there are no Georgia providers in my network.
People can't see mental illness and because of its stigma those of us who have been diagnosed are very very good at hiding our diagnosis
I spend days in my room. I am the most unproductive I’ve ever been. I lost my job. I lost friendships because I don’t nurture them anymore.

I lost all my friends after quitting cannabis and alcohol. I guess that’s all we had in common. I have been looking for a job for 6 months and I feel like a total loser. I finally have an upcoming interview but I’m not necessarily excited about it because I feel so worn out from depression. I’ve been through a lot the last few years. I’m so exhausted with who I am and the poor life choices I made before getting sober. Really hoping I can turn things around. I literally typed in “crippling depression” to find this video. 😓
I'm usually the happiest person around but recently this past year I've felt so depressed, I've struggled with every part of life and have lost all confidence. I know I'll eventually get through this but it does feel like a very long and lonely road. I'm not suicidal but I also wouldn't fight for my life if death was right around the corner. I do believe anyone can get through this. If you're reading this just know you're not alone in feeling this way, as isolating as it feels you can and will get through this 🙏🏼❤️
That's what is am going through is well lisa. I was outgoing enjoying the life. Love to joke around and was a very humble guy but don't no why one day alover a sudden i got this stress and then anxiety depression. I left my job. I didn't want to come out of my house, my room even out of my bed. I don't want to see any of my friends I don't want to do anything and I don't even care if I die tomorrow. I can't enjoy the life no more. Nothing is getting my excited in the life no more. I don't no if I can get over this feelings and recover again and be back me again. I don't no what to do and I am just preying to the god to save me.
When you're usually the happiest person around it seems like you have further to fall. Good luck in all things.
@Ulas Toprak this is exactly how I feel too.
@Ulas Toprak Aw Ulas, honestly although I wish this feeling upon nobody, it feels reassuring that we are not alone in feeling this way. Please feel free to message me whenever you like because although it seems like we'll never get out of this place maybe we can help each other a little bit too.
I am also jobless at the moment and struggle to find motivation to do anything, which really isn't like me, I was always the hardest worker in the room, getting up at 6 every morning to work, study go to the gym, work overtime whenever I could but now everything brings emptiness and I've given up on all of it.

I believe I suffer from periods of deep depression. Not sure if my depression is related to this but I get an extreme nauseating sinking feeling in my stomach as well as a loss of appetite and energy. Not sure how to describe other symptoms however but it's very difficult to get motivated with physical work. I believe I'm suffering from it right now and I found this video in an attempt to find tips to cope for the time being. Unfortunately I feel left empty handed.
Hoping you find peace and can overcome your demons and challenges. Reach out and seek help from every avenue you can to try and stop it from becoming all consuming. Have you ever heard of cognitive behavioural therapy?
I know exactly how you feel! try finding anything that would make you happy even if it means learning to do something, if you get good at it find something else, as long as you find something to keep you occupied it will help. The best thing I found to help with depression is to find someone you trust and just talk to them about it as it feels like a burden that you need to get off your chest, finding people who will support you or whom to share what you feel with helps allot. I am sharing this with you to get over my depression as I feel by trying to help makes you feel better about yourself!
May I ask how long you've suffered with this? What have you tried that may have helped I'm 32 been on alot medicines and know it can be so frustrating and overwhelming trying to find answers and get to the bottom of things!

They can and should do better than ECT. Although it helps some people it also messes others up big time. Depression and anxiety have caused me to isolate for decades. I dont have a support system. I cant keep.doing this on my own with meds that do not work and inability to find a quality therapist who is right for me as I live in a rural area .

I came here to try & understand what's happening to me, to my mind...& this has given me some kind of clarity, though the only time I experience mind chatter, is when it's extreme, it's almost constant, during/after a state of quite deep depression.
The first time it happened many years ago, it frightened me as I couldn't switch off from it, it was a constant dialog of chatter, like commentary.
Through my depression, I realised that I had nothing else to think about, as i'd lost interest in almost everything & life felt very uneventful, very boring. I'd lost interest in all the things I previously found interesting, exciting & worthy.
After alot of stresses in life this past 2 years, i've unfortunately gone back into a depression & the same feelings, plus recently this mind chatter, which at times i've found very dibilatating. Luckily, as much as I don't like it, theres only been a few times were it's overwhelmed me, which has made me panic.
In my first episode of it many years ago, it was so constant that I had to play loud music much of the time, to drown it out.
I'm hoping that, as I come out of my depression & I gain back interests in things, in life...it will again subside.
My understanding is that it comes on with me, when my mind is empty of thought, of what is usually my interests, yes even washing up & daily tasks.
I call it an empty head & mind, that requires something to do...so it chats, mind chatter.
I hope that this is understood to the professionals here & maybe helps others.
Thank you & all the best to all.
This mind chatter you're talking about sounds what I'm suffering with, currently spent the whole of 2021 severely depressed for the first time ever and extremely sleep deprived and when I try to sleep I play out and act scenarios in my head of full on conversations to other people and sometimes myself and it seems so real sometimes I can hear the voices so clearly and I'm not even attempting to do this infact I'm going as far as trying to stop it but I can't. Does this sound similar to your mind chatter?
@@bendodsworth2373 The mind chatter he is talking about is different. It is a feeling that your mind is empty, like a void yet you can process information when given to you and remember things just fine. This feeling of not knowing what to think about yet you think about everything at the same time and it drives you crazy. You can’t escape it, and when you do it only takes your mind a moment before it reminds you that you are depressed and constantly overwhelmed. You want to think about something, anything but you can’t.
@@Omar-bx5wq same my if say stop my mind say no you can't if say something good my mind will stop on the spot if i want to fell happy one reply from mind and everything vanissh
A lot of us are struggling to depression and although it may be slightly different symptoms, know that we are also trying to understand ourselves with this disease and that we are trying everyday our best and different approaches to overcome. The road may be long, but my hope is that we will all find a way out
Mind chatter is not a bad thing IF you are already receiving help from a professional. Because you’re emptying your mind, open to new ideas and thoughts.
What you don’t want is endless, frantic, paranoid thoughts. Let’s say you come up with some sort of idea or theory as to how to help yourself, in this state you will obsess about what you think is the solution but in reality is nothing.
They are both shitty states of mind to be in. Unfortunately , I bounce between the two all day every day.
I suffered from sever depression about 25 years ago and it really affected my GPA in college as I didn't care about anything and my GPA was not a concern as I didn't even think that my life was worth living. I have recovered from that depression thankfully within a year. I think depression comes from loneliness and not having the things that bring you joy in life. Having an active social life in my opinion is important to beat depression, unfortunately not everyone have people who care about them and who would do anything for them to get them through depression. My advice is to try anything that would bring you joy or a sense of purpose, even if it is cleaning a room or rearranging something that gives you a sense of accomplishment can help. Try finding anything that would bring you joy and just do it, I have another suggestion is go out and take a walk, it helps.
You know your story gives people hope. Thank you very much!

I'm dealing with chronic depression and it leads me into panic too , a lot of anxiety . It sucks , especially not having someone by your side everyday to help get you thru it or try and take your mind off of it. This is something BIG that has helped me, but the only time I even feel okay is when I have someone there with me , helping me get thru it , like... Being alone , and having these problems are the WORST . I am scared to go to the doctor but know that I need to, they can probably fix my brain 🧠 I've always been a deep thinker , I've had depression and anxiety but NEVER as bad as it's gotten this year .. my chronic depression became chronic , after my first acid trip .. I was not in the right head space , it was a bitter sweet experience.... Something I NEVER should have done though and now I'm worried I'm stuck like this
I'm sure everyone is different but I took acid during a very depressing/anxious time of my life and at first it helped bc it made me realize a lot of things. However, the month afterwards I was always depressed and sometimes worse than usual. Eventually I levelled out but I still had to go to therapy/a psychiatrist where I was diagnosed with major depression and PTSD. I still struggle but I promise if you can make it to a doctor, therapist, etc, it's worth it!! I still use the coping skills I learned from therapy which I haven't gone to in 3 months
One of the ways to overcome depression is to try sensitize people who don't know what it really means. This means talking about your experience and helping other people take their mental health seriously. You can still impact your world positively.
That's impossible, neurotypicals cannot be reasoned with.
I’ve dealt with depression for most of my life. Two things worked for me: Prozac and Psilocybin separately.
can we connect?
That’s what you call drugs
I'm 26 and haven't achieved nothing much in my life. This thought makes me depressed all the time for past 6 months. I don't have much friends. I feel hopeless. Somebody please help me.😢😢😢
I hope you got it through it
The first thing you have to say to yourself is that you are not alone at this phase . One day you are getting out of this phase into a better one . Now you have to say to yourself I'm capable of standing by myself to do great things and I do whatever I want to be in my life . Just Take a big breath and say Hello to your new life and new journey .
I know it doesn't feel like it and I know it sounds like a cliche but you are not alone with your struggles. Millions of us are going through the same battle. You're already over the first hurdle. Just reaching out is a win. Keep going. It will make sense one day. God bless.
Hey there , I felt when u said help. I'm going threw this . Your not alone. Keep fighting. It's hard but ask God for guidance he will help . I will pray for you
Mate
Now im fckd again but exactly at 26 i just started to live . Moved to abroad (london) and managed to build up an almost full life in just a couple of years from absolute scratch. Friends ,girls, girlfriend, clients, own business, employees, travels, surfing ...etc . All that happened within 3 years including the language learning .
Extreme improvement.
My mates /employees all did the same around the same age..
..so no need to worry quiet the opposit.
This is the time to start whatever u want. Now u grown up enough and have the power to accomplish things.
Just be strong and focused on the road and the good.....dont let yourself distract.
Just do it ;)
Ull find the way .
2021 was the hardest, darkest time of my life. I was physically, emotionally, mentally, spiritually BROKEN. But now I feel genuinely GRATEFUL and BLESSED that I had to go through that phase because GOD has graciously REVEALED Himself to me in miraculous ways. I am fortunate that He allowed me to know Him at a very young age, but this year is so much SPECIAL because of what WE (yes, GOD and me) have been through last year. He showed me how POWERFUL prayers truly are when I started to focus on WHO HE IS rather than who I am, on WHAT HE CAN DO rather than what I deserve. The experience was MAGICAL. He showed up BIG TIME and assured me that HE is indeed a LISTENING and RESPONDING GOD. Oh how my faith has skyrocketed as a result! Now more than ever, I have very bright HOPE for my future because I experienced first hand how RELIABLE God is. And for that I will forever be grateful. GLORY BE TO GOD, MY EVER FAITHFUL FATHER. ♥️♥️♥️
To everyone who's struggling right now, please know that JESUS LOVES YOU. HE DIED FOR YOU. He wants to give you peace and joy. Please open up your hearts and let Him move in your lives.
"Because he loves Me,” says the Lord, “I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges My Name. He will call on Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him." (Psalm 91:14-15)
Please hold on to this bible verse because WHATEVER GOD SAYS, HE FULFILLS. ✝️
Thank you for your testimony.

If I had a penny for everytime someone has said "I will pray for you" I would be richer than Elon Musk, Bill Gates, & Jeff Bezos all put together.
Don't you religious Nut Bars even fell a little bit Silly when your prayers are never answered? Does it not make you question your own sanity?
Just because some ancient scripture from the 7th century, written by some unknown authors makes the audacious claim there is some supernatural, celestial being that has infinite power over everything exists, does not mean it's so.
This idea of a god is a great story but it hasn't been able to stand up to the rigours of science. Why do you think religions are called "a faith?" '...... it's because god cannot be proven.
Until, such a time the claims the bible makes can provide demonstrable, repeatable, scientific proof they remain nothing more than a story.
Do you believe in Santa Clause, Batman, the Easter Bunny, the Tooth Fairy & Spiderman?
There are books out there claiming these people exist also.
Instead of making nonsensical claims like "GOD TRULY EXISTS", put your money where you mouth is & "PROVE IT".
So far not a single person has been able to.
Tell you what: why don't you set up a lunch date with god & all his buddies. I would love to meet this fellow I've heard do much about. No excuses now ........
BTW - what kind of drugs do you do?
i wish i could turn to religion as my coping mechanism. unfortunately i need something more, something less superficial.
It sucks to know that I can’t function without medication, but distracting myself from the issue seems to do a lot better. Yeah in a way it’s avoiding the issue but at the same time I’m finding joy in things for the first time :)
Your Lady truly loves you! Be grateful you have a beautiful 😇 by your side.
Depression sucks. I’m so happy this helped you!
Love and light!
God bless so happy for him !!!
Consider the things in your life that you are thankful for. Be appreciative, don’t focus on what is not perfect. We cannot experience a perfect existence here in this material world. Most other living beings in this world have much greater suffering than we do.
I’m happy for him; I hope I can find that kind of relieve some day. Severe depression hits different when you’re literally lonely; physically. Very interesting post
I agree with you
I know quite a few people that this procedure has literally saved their lives. Thank God for these professionals, who actually care ❤
I don't know how to be happy again, I just want to be happy and make those around me happy 😢
Same. But I don't know what happiness feels like. It was always a like a cloud and I'm just moving in life with my head down forcing a laugh at times.
Some guy in here mentioned what he calls “brain chatter.” I thought I was the only one experiencing this lately. I’ve never been one you’d considered overly happy but I’ve also never been depressed like I am now.
I got an MRI exactly one month ago and that’s the moment it started. I could not and still cannot pinpoint a reason for my depression but every day since I’ve been very down. I don’t have any emotion, the things I enjoy just aren’t fun anymore. Not even video games make me feel at ease anymore. Luckily I don’t have any issues sleeping but I fall asleep feeling depressed and wake up feeling the same. There are bouts throughout the day where I feel normal and then it goes back into gloominess.
It literally feels like a brain fog filled with negative thoughts. The thing is tho, those negative thoughts don’t have any real dialogue to them. It’s just a feeling of misery, dread, doom, numbness, and hopelessness all mixed together into one.
I really want to feel happy and I’m confused why I’m depressed. I’m taking steps to see a psychologist and I really don’t want to be on meds for this as they won’t fix my issues.
Luckily this video gave me hope that there is effective treatment for this.
Has anything changed
I understand completely! I.hope you are feeling better!
What did the MRI show if you dont mind us asking?
Beware, ECT does more harm than good for many people. After 2 so called treatments, I had amnesia for one week. It made my symptoms worse. I have ptsd over having agreed to ECT. It's been like a nightmare since then. ECT is very profitable for psychiatrists however.
So very glad he’s better!!!!!!!
Honestly I know all of you people are doing the best you can and thinking you're helping all of us people. Problem is some of us people can't be "fixed"
Who told you that? I was in a depression as bad as anyone's before I was going catatonic. Medication got me out of it.... don't spread false info
Praying 🙏🏽 for all who have mental illness. You are not alone Jesus loves us.
Music will always be an important tool in relieving anxiety and depression!
i cant even listen to music anymore

Really good comment. Really important.
He had very severe depression, not the mild level of depression that most people experience during the week.
Given the chaos in society, I personally believe it's normal to have some minor amount of anxiety and depression.
If depression and anxiety levels are debilitating, then it must be treated professionally immediately.
I'm just trying to deal with a society that's far more insane than even the 1960's when I was a kid.
It's not just society but also all the chemicals in our food, air, water, etc. Peoples bodies are under constant toxic assault.
Would've been alot more helpful if it's free.. i seriously think therapy across the world should be free.. everyone deserves their true spirit and happiness back.. im feeling anxious, traumatized, paranaoid and depressed for years now, ive never told anybody or my family.. im 22 yrs old.. i still continue to move forward and tire myself from work to help my family.. but no one knows it's my mentality that is exhausted.. ive had drug problems back then, ive faced extreme emotional stress too gave me PTSD.. ive been on a extremely toxic environment and people but somehow im still sane.. I won't even wish my mental demons on my worse enemies..
Saying Positive Affirmations Daily when you get up in the morning...plus have a Mantra you say daily...example.."I am Enough", " "My dad is always with me" repeat throughout the day. ..music helps as well...for me..."The Beatles" I listen closely to their harmonies...I find it very healing.....
Thank you Joe Morgan for sharing yr story. God bless you & yr wife.🙏🏼
I was suffering depression earlyer, so i went searching for videos to help.
I'm 48 and I failed at life. No wife, no house, no money.
You have not failed. You are awesome and Amazing. You can't move forward effectively by looking backwards. Forget your past mistakes and missed opportunities. You can still bless the world. I've been depressed for close to 3 years now and what has kept me going is my purpose. Yes I'm not happy with my current situation but I'm positive it won't stop me from making impact and fulfilling my purpose. I love you ❤️
❤️.. Please don't believe you have failed life.
🙏
That's not failure. Just because most people get married it doesn't mean happiness for everyone,just because most people go after big careers and money again it doesn't mean it brings completion and happiness. If these things however are what you want to have in life it's never too late to have them. Don't compare your self and success to others. You have your own unique path.
48 is still young. But I know what you mean. I'm 36, no husband, no house, fired from my last job. I like to think about artists that made it in their 60s. The composers, the bukowski's of the world. Comparison is the thief of gratitude if your comparing doesn't inspire you. So fuck everyone else. If we can walk and wipe your own ass, we still have time.
Jeez, I hope I get my issues squared before I go into Electro Convulsive Therapy. Maybe I will try regular exercise.
It's different when you don't have anyone to help fight it or recommend you to go see anyone. It be so easy for me to just disappear and it'll be months before someone found me... But I'm too much of a coward to do it myself. I'll just let it happen because money is tough rn and healing is expensive
Totally understand ❤
Talk to me... please.

Wow
I been stuck at home for months, I recently last year had fallen into a deep depression, felt like I was going insane and I was isolating myself. Got a job, but nothing change, still felt empty inside and directionless. Got a different job and suddenly things were going better, I was on better shape, started to socialize more, but it was also a lot of stress, and I couldn’t get time to see my girlfriend. Lost my job due to stress and now I feel stuck and depressed, been isolating at home for about 2 months, I just see days past by as if I was only existing, not living them. Don’t know when this is going to end but I am sure that I want to make a change in my life and that I will push trough, wish me luck guys. I hope you all are safe and doing well

I had 2 healthy teeth extracted for orthodontics and I immediately went into chronic depression and then I did my research and saw that tooth loss causes decrease in gray matter in ur brain and causes anxiety and depression. People around me think I’m overthinking but I being so fuckijg happy felt the change immediately and now I’m trying to do research to reset my brain and do cognitive behavioural therapy and shit but man idk if I’ll ever get back to my previous state because damn this feels like chronic depression and I mean I’m never gonna get my teeth back and my nerves are severed now and it scares me that this will stay forever .
It's most likely the Anastasia or drugs they used on you
Oh wow is this why I’ve been severely depressed for 8 years? I extracted all my teeth 8 years ago and I’ve been depressed ever since but thought it was because of my condition
@@noraaa8479 i think it could be a possibility because ur teeth are also a really imp part of ur body. Someone once told me losing teeth can be close to losing a limb. Ur teeth serve such an important function and people say stimulus from the teeth help stimulate nerves in ur brain to perform tasks like releasing saliva and stuff. As per chinese medicine, ur teeth and ur organs are connected through meridians or something so i believe that theres a lot of underlying things in our physical health which in modern day people underestimate thag could affect us mentally. Depression could be a symptom of something bigger sometimes
I have this also!! I just think I got off a five month long major depression after a fight with a friend of 24 years. Alot thongs ensued after the altercation and I swear, I came out better for it!! .y little Dachshooundand I should be okay. After 5 months, today is the first day, I actually feel better! The Sun being out has everything to do with it!
I'm very happy for you that this worked. But it doesn't work for everyone. I've tried everything under the sun. Even had ECT's. And recently had RTMS - the last hope. And it did nothing for me. So, what works for someone, doens't work for all. Hope it will continue for you to work!
i was searching a meme, not I'm more conscious of it... Thanks iDubbz
Ive suffered with ocd for the last 12 years. Theres no life with ocd. I look at myself and realise why the hell havnt i achieved nothing. Never held a long term girlfriend in my life. Havnt had a proper career. This condition ruins me, i feel disabled. absolute crippling. My minds a paradox and i feel like theres no way out. I feel lonely and broken. Ive got dreams that i want to pursue but cant do them because of ocd. Your basically crippled with ocd. I wouldnt wish this condition on anyone absolute torture. The most upsetting thing is i want a life but i cant. In tears everyday with this condition. Makes me go down to my knees. But i have something in spades thats willpower and determination going through the havoc of ocd each day and still standing. I get pride knowing i go through each day with my mind having to battle all the time and being trapped in my thoughts. Its a housebound condition. I take cold showers daily for the past decade and i do my exercise. Rest of time im housebound as its a housebound condition. Finally made a move after 12 years and seeking help. Hopefully i can recover and learn how to manage my paradox of a mind thats overactive. Life is so difficult with this disorder. Maybe just accept i have ocd and life gave it to me and always remember its not my fault. I will keep being in tears and going through the agony this condition gives me. At the moment i feel like im not going to have a life. But i do understand that could change so dont rule out the possibility. Ocd is my fulltime job battling my mind all day everyday. Im going to look a this as medievil torture, and think i will be more resilent later on if when i recover. I like everyones stories here and wanted to share my battle with mental health.
Psilocybin saved my life. I was addicted to heroin for 15 years and after Psilocybin treatment I will be 3 years clean in September. I have zero cravings. This is something that truly needs to be more broadly used in addiction treatment.
Psychedelics definitely have potential to deal with mental health issues such as anxiety and depression, I would like to give them a try but haven't found any legit grower to get it.
We also need peaceful music, good for the SOUL.
thank you so much for this video it gave me alot of hope to stay strong and keep pushing
Depression is a very nasty thing, its severity cannot be estimated by the common man at all, but by strengthening positive thinking, it can be improved to a great extent. I suffered from this thing in 2018 but by the grace of Almighty I have controlled it. Its not my fault to have it . I believe, its from God and we have to beqr it patently nothing is permanent it will be pass soon
I never knew such treatment exists 😮
I kind of did the same with acid (LSD) because nobody had anything for me in the healthcare system in Spain.
Try 🍄
@@ciara98208 thank you, I already did, psylocibin is my favorite psychedelic yet. I'm saving up to get/make DMT.

@@ciara98208 Great, let's all be drug addicts.
@@JaysonT1 if you're looking through the stigmatic glasses you'll see it that way, for others, it's lifesaving. Sometimes one micro dose of lsd can rewire it. Some are so severe they need to do it over and over until it does its job.
I don't even care if this should kill me, I've already tried many times with failing, so might as well consider this option if things got even more unpleasant than it already had been. My depression had really gotten to me that I've given up looking for a job because it's been unsuccessful and such an agonizing chore, and when I close the window in my apartment, I do it very damn meaningfully after ventilating the room for fresh air... meaning to shut the world out of mine.
I love you ❤️. You ain't here to suffer. I have been battling with it for a while now (severe depression). The physical effects on me are just crazy but I believe I'm recovering. You are not alone on this. You are bigger than this depression and you will overcome.
hmmm, why to give up let's solve those problems
I may have a chance, I’m forcing myself leave my room for an hour. Wish me well. Thanks 🙏🏼
depression is not somethng i wish even at my worst enemy its horrible dark days and night zero energy you block the world completely with zero control when severe even interferes with your daily duties work family and even most family judges you as a crazy person instead of trying to help out also appettite etc my brain zones out to a world of zero thoughts till you dont even know what day it is etc etc i hope you all and myself find the light someday today im doing somewhat better may god be with us

I know someone that had ECT treatments and they had memory loss and seemed to process information a lot slower. I was told it should only be used as a last resort. I’m sure every result is individual but it’s not gonna be just that easy
Can you get me in contact with him please . I also got ect and I feel the same . Hopefully I'll hear from you soon
a couple days ago i was so happy and thought i was healed because I became me again, I did the things i enjoyed the most and felt so real, it felt so good but a week later it just went down and I was going insane wanting to end it all just fixating whatever it was to kms. It's so hard I dont know where to go and who to go to, I would go to therapy but I have money issues so im not sure what to do
Empty your mind. Be formless shapeless like water : Bruce Lee
I want to challenge the idea that "nobody wants to be around a depressed person." While it's true that happy people may gravitate towards other happy people, true friends will stick by your side no matter what.
It's true that depression can be hard for others to understand, but that doesn't mean we should suffer alone. Our feelings are valid, and we deserve to have support and love from those around us, no matter how we're feeling.
I wish I had a reset button for my head... I wish I could go back to a time before all of this... One day I will
Careful. Can cause severe braindamage.

Could yours be due to bad gut bacteria? Maybe you have a food allergy or intolerance that is causing this. Research is coming out now showing that the gut plays a major role in treatment -resistant depression. Research results are coming out now, but I experienced it 15 years before. There are also brain abnormalities and tumors, but bad gut bacteria is responsible for many cases of longstanding depression.
@@marylamb6063 Hi Mary ,
You know,..it’s funny you mention that because I am taking Probiotics and have been for awhile. I miss some days but not many. I keep up on my daily vitamins also. I absolutely believe that many issues and illnesses of many kinds begin in the gut. I have read so many different things on depression that after awhile you aren’t sure who’s really correct and who isn’t.🤷🏻♀️
Depression is very crippling... but, I was trained how to hide it during my time in cps captivity. Took me years to learn how, but I did. No one knows how well I hide it. I am not allowed to cry, complain or stay in bed, it takes every ounce of strength I have to crawl out of bed. Getting wasted everyday helps me hide it better
My depression is crippling me completely. I find joy in nothing anymore. My sons addiction , bullying and violence has squashed me. I wish to give up but im a coward.😢
For family members it is scary. Not only does my old man suffers with those symptoms but we also feel the anguish along side with him and it affects us all.
This was not the most serious depression these are starting stages of depression i have depression from 10 years im.22 im lonely i have zero friends but faith is everything

IV ketamine therapy has helped my son a great deal. The downside is that the costs can be prohibitive. It makes me sick that insurance doesn't cover it yet, at least mine doesn't. I know this video isn't about ketamine, but I want tell as many as I can about it because I didn't know about it until a year ago and it has made a world of difference.
Buy it at the club baby
we should analyze thoughts and practically how they are affecting.
and try fixing own thoughts
I looked into this but then was told it’s going to be something you have to do every year. It’s expensive worth it if you only need one full treatment.
WOW THAT IS AWESOME!
GOD IS GOOD!!
I need this badly nothing has worked for me 28 years of this crap depression and the military even though I am honored to have served the army it made it worse. So yeah I think I am going to try this.
I'm gonna try this too. No more suffering for 2023🚫
Excellent topic. I had what I'd consider severe depression even to the point of being hopeless, and was brought out of it immediately by hearing the advice of an expert. It was this. Be thankful for whatever you can be thankful for. It sounds like a contradiction. I know that can be easier said than done. It changes the thought process though. Prior to that I thought I was supposed to think negative thoughts to be realistic. So I had no idea about this approach and it possibly saved my life.
The professional was a minister and the premise for this is 1 Thessalonians 5:18, which is be thankful in all circumstances. I had no idea this was a biblical idea. It's worked for me for decades. I don't know how I missed or how it isn't widely applied today, but it works. I'm sure counseling and other approaches work to, but that was absolutely most of the solution for me, and I don't hear it mentioned much.
You said you came out of it immediately. Did you do anything differently after you heard this? How did you apply this principle?
@@jamaica2010ism When I felt depressed I did a lot of searching and praying for an answer to the way I was thinking and feeling.Then I heard from a counselor who pretty closely addressed what I was thinking, with an easily applied technique, which stunned me, because he was not scheduled to be there and he didn't know me. So I definitely was enthusiastic to try it. I think it totally reset my attitude, and took away any depression. Thank you for you question.

Get help, don't fight this battle alone. You will win and win big when others are on your side. So many ppl are will to help, just reach out to someone. (Hospital, counselor, family member, friend. Just say, I need to talk with out being judged.)
Pray to the Lord Jesus, pray, pray, pray .He will answer you . You are not alone .
Been in my house/room for 2 weeks sleeping super late. And I don’t feel like doing nun. But I have to. GOD HAS ME. i will be ok
Know that all of this will reveal its purpose someday soon. You need to endure through this because when this all comes together, you will soon thereafter be needed to take everything you have gained from all this and use it to help someone that will be in great need of your guidance.
ok
really close friend over the internet just tried to OD today. im very very upset and right now im just trying to find out *SOME SORT OF WAY* that it can be overcome, because the current outlook is that this person who i hold very near and dear to my heart will never somehow escape the cycle of deep dark depression, but i know within my heart that there is a way, im just on a journey right now to try to find out what the way is.
