Depression is a well known mercury toxicity symptom, and some handle the toxicity better than others, but some get these kind of issues, autism, low immune system, ADHD, gut issues, allergies etc. And therefor you can only manage symptoms until you get rid of the mercury. I would encourage anyone struggling look into the Andrew Cutler Protocol. This is the ONLY safe protocol to this date, eating things like chlorella and cilantro has made people very very sick. Please read the child recovering stories by googling «cutler success stories child» and «cutler success stories adult» . But the best place to learn and get support is trough the Facebook group «Andy Cutler Chelation: Safe Mercury and Heavy Metal Detox». But whatever you do, never take/eat cilantro, chlorella, MSM, glutathione, and ALA/DMPS/DMSA that is not according to the Andrew Cutler Protocol, you can read some peoples horror stories by googling «Andy Cutler what not to do». Wish you all the best!
@@siriolsen7805 Depression has nothing got to do with mercury. It´s disease, some have and others don´t. So many things affect. Genes, hard things that people go through, etc. It´s not black and white.
Maybe your body is just literally tired and needs a day off from.ground hog day? From work , from people, from the kitchen, from slapping on makeup? As humans we get really exhausted listening to other ppls problems let alone dealing with our own 'every day'. Let me know, if you really really think you're 'depressed' or just in need of a mental, emotional, physical break. God is always helpful, believe it or not, give him some communication on your goods days then talk to him on your bad days, and see what happens. ♡
I struggle with mental illness. Sometimes medicine is needed. Some things that help me are self care. Bubble baths, finding people who understand what you are going through, small walks, watching movies you enjoy, lots of water, herbal tea, lavender oil, prayers. Try to avoid caffeine, alcohol, drugs, they make everything worse. Please know you are not alone!!
She is incredible. I love that she shares her experience with anxiety and depression. So many individuals benefit knowing that someone like her is going through it too.
I really liked how she explained taking medication for depression, "f you are lacking in serotonin it's ok to take medication, would you deny a diabetic insulin and them to just work all that sugar out?!" Such a good way to help people understand.
I have come to realize that the thing I love most about Kristen and Dax is that they are both just very real people. I'm sure they have their blind spots like anyone else, but they appear to genuinely want to be better humans and have realized some of the things that make that possible.
I overcame depressions after 27 years. This is my 3th year without symptoms. I still am afraid when I have bad days, that it will come back, because it feels so similar. But a new morning somehow makes me feel better. I am as happy as someone can be :)
@@mo1976ney Well, I got a knee joint break... I couldn't walk for 3 months, I stayed positive. Now I even can run again, doctors told me I never will. Because I overcome this bad injury, I got a lot of self confidence and that leads to healing I guess. It healed my depressions.
@Cindy Wallis I didn't had even a month without depression the last couple years before the knee joint break. I always had these feeling of negativity around me, even I was fine. And now I just live! I also was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis 4 months ago. It's a chronical disease without cure. That's a big reason for depressions coming back, because I had to rearrange my whole life. But I am still positive! I think everything happens for a good reason. I have learned to live and to enjoy every day.
I struggled with depression my whole life to the point of trying suicide in middle school. I applaud her for sharing her story and being open about this topic. If more people came together to talk about this very real issue there could be less chances of getting depressed to the point of possibly taking your own life.
Hits close to home, although I don’t think I have depression, I do in fact have bad anxiety. I have struggled with suicidal thoughts and self harm. I’ve tried to starve myself. Was very insecure and just extremely overwhelmed and sad to the point I almost took my life. I’m feeling these feelings today. I’m trying to get better
I felt like I couldn't get out of bed today too. I was depressed, had anxiety, had to call into work sick. Didn't want to see anybody or be seen, feeling lonely and hopeless. Thanks for sharing Kristen!!

@@millysa4745 Hi Milly thank you. I think that day I just was not myself at all. I don't feel like that today. Thank you for reaching out. Have a great day!!
@@rhondasilver3582 💕💕 I think we're just way too quick to describe ourselves as 'depressed'. As we automatically think and say that, we put ourselves into a dark hole, and sometimes it's hard to come out of, where most of the time we prob just needed some sun, a beauty regime, day off or just a simple sleep-in.
I love that I saw this at this moment. I just gave my 2 weeks notice at work because my anxiety is taking over. It's nice to see that I'm not the only one that suffers and hides it so well with humor.
I struggle terribly. I am just going BACK to work, after 5 months off. I had such bad anxiety I couldn't leave the house. You just have to know that these periods come and go. Eventually you will get better. I highly recommend medication though. It's a true lifesaver.
She’s awesome. Love her candor. A big thing is her mom...her mom’s support, self awareness and communication is key here too. If we all had parents like this, wow...how transformative and we could more easily live in our own authenticity earlier. It’s been a struggle, but am muddling through. 😬
I love her, and her way of telling her story about depression and anxiety. I wish everyone could see it like this, it’s truly the best description for how and why it needs treatment just like any other physical disability/illness.
It's amazing that even though she's a very popular celebrity that has achieved a great deal of success in her life, Kristen still comes off as so down-to-Earth, genuine, wholesome, and inspirational. With how humble she is, she seems like a normal everyday person who just so happens to be famous at the same time. The amount of respect and admiration I have for this woman as an actress, and most importantly, as a human being cannot properly be measured. The way I see it, if everyone on Earth was a little more like Kristen Bell, the world would be a much better place to live.
Thank you for sharing that story!! I had no idea... depression? On medication? And yet you handled your life so gracefully and look where it got you. You are wonderful. Thank you
I just started taking anxiety and depression meds and I feel ashamed. Ashamed to tell my family and friends because I was always the "happy bubbly person" as well. That I need to show a smile... Thank you Kristen for opening up. Thank you so much ❤❤
I absolutely love all the characters that Kristen Bell plays in movies and tv shows. I always assumed that she would be just as fun and nice off screen. I was right but she is more than just nice and fun... she is deep, real, funny, positive and truly cares about others. I love how she explained that people shouldn't be ashamed to take medication because a lot of times it is physically necessary. Due to the stigma that surrounds mental illness, people, particularly youth, often do not want to admit that something is wrong so they don't seek help. When celebrities speak up about their personal struggles with mental illness, it educates and encourages people to get help. Whether celebrities like it or not, society look up and are influenced by them. Way to go Kristin for being such a positive role-model!!! She is awesome!
I love her even more right now. She's rifht I've only recently open up about my own struggles and the thing anxiety and depression does is make you feel soo alone. So i thank her for sharing her story.
She is so funny and reminds me so much of myself. She makes light out of the tough situations but still acknowledging how important it is to still stay true to yourself and when you're struggling, it's ok to not be ok sometimes! But there is light!!! I'm so happy I came across this interview
Wow I have suffered from depression for 17 years and the doctors have told me the same thing. Sometimes we need medicine just like people who suffer from diabetes etc. we are not alone. When the brain does not stay regulated and the neurotransmitters can’t connect.. don’t be afraid to take meds also with eating right and exercising and a huge support group. You are not alone.. there is help..
It's amazing how she can straight up talk about her depression, sharing stories and cheering others in the process. Anyone who's gone through it knows it's not an easy thing to do. Rooting for you Kristen.
❤️❤️ thank you Kristen bell. You are a breath of fresh air. Love that you keep things open and real. Your work is great keep up the positive vibes. I too suffer from that thanks for bringing it to light not to be ashamed
Kristen has helped me feel safer and happier knowing “oh. She has that too.” I’ve struggled with anxiety and depression too and the shame is something that is really hard to overcome. I’m so happy she is being honest about this stuff. It makes me feel like if she can be succeed in spite of this, so can I. 💗💗💗
As someone has been shamed for taking medication in the past, thank you for saying this. I'd rather take medication and be able to function (mostly) normally than the alternative.
Kristen thank you. I share these struggles and am so happy a young beautiful woman such as yourself shared this. Love you and your husband. Struggles are with everyone. You guys are my new young hero’s.
I like that she talks about it because it shows you that just because you are successful and seemingly have all these wonderful thing (fame, money a great family) that doesn't mean that you don't struggle. Someone seeing her, without hearing her talk about these things, might think "I can never be as successful as her because i have x, Y and Z wrong with me" but she is living proof that you can have struggles and still be successful. Well done, Kristen.
My parents never told me that, but that I‘m lazy and work too less. I ignored it, until I couldn‘t: At my worst, I wasn‘t able to leave my apartment anymore. Thank you, for sharing your story, Kristen Bell.
Mine neither. They saw I was unhappy and struggling from 14 onwards (actually had been depressed since I was 10), but only said I shouldn’t be so “sulky”... Recently my mother admitted that she knew at the time something was the matter, but she didn’t know what she could do about it, so she just did nothing. Didn’t cross her mind to talk to our GP about it, or to a friend or even to ME.
I've recently come across some of the older videos of Kristen and Dax. I have to say, they are now my most revered Hollywood couple ever!! They have the kind of relationship that even at 71...made me say "hmm, so that's what adults really sound like". They are the kind of people I always want around me. Kristen is so adorable, honest and real. As a lifelong fan of Doris Day, I have to say that I've found the new, improved version.
She is sooooooo great. I never thought she was that deep, sweet& (I think)so smart. Only few (maybe more now actually) people or even doctors(GPs I mean.from my experience)seem to think like her.......i mean about feeling depressed/anxious &getting medication ¬"wait+therapy only"...They find 1000 other "solutions" and we waste time/part of our lives, maybe... But I do agree with her &her mom (who saved her life &career,if she warned her from the start! ....she made her comfortable taking things to help!All my friends were against it,cause society says so..the medias. she had a lot of support cause her mom knows more,as a nurse.so lucky. ). +She looks so fresh still so youthful...we can see kindness from the inside out,I love her.
She spoke very well here, from my own perspective, I feel I can add something to this. I have dealt with anxiety before, for me it was mentally draining and it’s tricky to deal with when you try to handle it on your own, which I did too much. It’s affected my eating before, the anxiety could make it difficult to eat sometimes. Most of it stemmed from school and also insecurities about my competence and what others thought of me. I wished I could be very well rounded, but I wasn’t, and it bothered me. After turning 20, I realised I had to learn to accept myself and my flaws and just be happy with who I am, but just work gradually to improve on things. Also, I find that there is a lot of beauty in imperfection. People want to hide their flaws, yet each person’s strengths and weaknesses make them unique and contribute to the beautiful variety of life. The good and bad make life interesting and exciting, if it was all good, what would be the point? That’s how I view imperfection.
Anxiety and depression could be linked to an imbalance of microbes in our gut. Which affects our brain. Also, thyroid issues cause depression/anxiety. And of course, other reasons as well. T3 medication can help with depression. Some psychiatrists prescribe it. Imbalanced without medication? What about foods we eat? Nutritional deficiencies? B12.. vit D... omega 3s and so much more.
Diana Martiniuc-Cameron you've no idea how much this comment is so real to my life! I'm thyroid issues and have low b12 and I suffer terrible from anxiety ... if i keep my b12 up as much as poss it's better but not perfect xx thank u so much for the comment as some people may not link these connections
tracy halpin you're welcome :) I went through hell after I had my baby! Taking selenium, zinc, b12, vit D3, magnesium, and taking t3 only medication have all completely changed my life! I want people to know that there is a root cause and dig for it. Have you checked for antibodies? And full thyroid panel. I hope you feel well and thank you for the very encouraging comment :)
Diana Martiniuc-Cameron I went through hell after my 2nd baby. My thyroid problem was discovered till it wasn't functioning at all and I was near thyroid coma..... my girl is now 5 and I'm still not right. I'll look into the things u said x I'm on eltroxin and medication for my anxiety and I suffer alot of pain in my arms and hands and headaches. The joys!
tracy halpin aw, I truly feel for you. I would try the paleo or Gaps protocol. Or AIP if necessary. Most doctor only look at Tsh and leave free t3, free t4, reverse, t3, SHBG, and Antibodies out. Diet has really changed a lot for me and then supplementing with certain vitamins/minerals. Also, have your cortisol/female hormones checked with serum test. I research a lot online & have found so much information. My anxiety got so bad, I would have panick attacks. It was so unusual for me because I had always been a very calm, Happy person. I also have hashimotos, so I believe the anxiety came from this and me being hypothyroid. I can say this, after I got on the AIP/gaps for healing, I have not had any anxiety. I'm also cleansing with herbs. I hope you have the ability to see a functional medicine doctor, they can run tests and along with your research, you can begin to feel better. We are truly the only ones who can makes us better, no one cares more about you more than you do. I had to fight for myself and so I started doing a lot of research & working with my naturopath. Theres so much to it, it can feel overwhelming :/ But there is hope!
"I think it's such a waste of time to be ashamed of your own story".
That really hit me.
I love Kristen.

how wonderful is Kristen, come on she's jewel that shines so much brighter than most 🖤💟🖤
Love her! Also, motivated to make an appointment :)
Thank you Kristen! You're an amazing person :)
This. Right Here. Truth. All Day Long.
She spoke very well here, from my own perspective, I feel I can add something to this. I have dealt with anxiety before, for me it was mentally draining and it’s tricky to deal with when you try to handle it on your own, which I did too much. It’s affected my eating before, the anxiety could make it difficult to eat sometimes. Most of it stemmed from school and also insecurities about my competence and what others thought of me. I wished I could be very well rounded, but I wasn’t, and it bothered me. After turning 20, I realised I had to learn to accept myself and my flaws and just be happy with who I am, but just work gradually to improve on things. Also, I find that there is a lot of beauty in imperfection. People want to hide their flaws, yet each person’s strengths and weaknesses make them unique and contribute to the beautiful variety of life. The good and bad make life interesting and exciting, if it was all good, what would be the point? That’s how I view imperfection.
She's a good egg. Always nice to hear her talk about anything
I love you Kristen Bell!..and The good place
thanks kristen
She's very inspiring.
she so awesome ..Go Krisen
Thank you, Kristen♡
Anxiety and depression could be linked to an imbalance of microbes in our gut. Which affects our brain. Also, thyroid issues cause depression/anxiety. And of course, other reasons as well. T3 medication can help with depression. Some psychiatrists prescribe it. Imbalanced without medication? What about foods we eat? Nutritional deficiencies? B12.. vit D... omega 3s and so much more.
Diana Martiniuc-Cameron you've no idea how much this comment is so real to my life! I'm thyroid issues and have low b12 and I suffer terrible from anxiety ... if i keep my b12 up as much as poss it's better but not perfect xx thank u so much for the comment as some people may not link these connections
tracy halpin you're welcome :)
I went through hell after I had my baby! Taking selenium, zinc, b12, vit D3, magnesium, and taking t3 only medication have all completely changed my life! I want people to know that there is a root cause and dig for it. Have you checked for antibodies? And full thyroid panel. I hope you feel well and thank you for the very encouraging comment :)
And eating AIP and healing my gut through cleansing and supplementing with glutamine & bone broth.
Diana Martiniuc-Cameron I went through hell after my 2nd baby. My thyroid problem was discovered till it wasn't functioning at all and I was near thyroid coma..... my girl is now 5 and I'm still not right. I'll look into the things u said x I'm on eltroxin and medication for my anxiety and I suffer alot of pain in my arms and hands and headaches. The joys!
tracy halpin aw, I truly feel for you. I would try the paleo or Gaps protocol. Or AIP if necessary. Most doctor only look at Tsh and leave free t3, free t4, reverse, t3, SHBG, and Antibodies out. Diet has really changed a lot for me and then supplementing with certain vitamins/minerals. Also, have your cortisol/female hormones checked with serum test. I research a lot online & have found so much information. My anxiety got so bad, I would have panick attacks. It was so unusual for me because I had always been a very calm, Happy person. I also have hashimotos, so I believe the anxiety came from this and me being hypothyroid. I can say this, after I got on the AIP/gaps for healing, I have not had any anxiety. I'm also cleansing with herbs. I hope you have the ability to see a functional medicine doctor, they can run tests and along with your research, you can begin to feel better. We are truly the only ones who can makes us better, no one cares more about you more than you do. I had to fight for myself and so I started doing a lot of research & working with my naturopath. Theres so much to it, it can feel overwhelming :/
But there is hope!
I love her and dax so much
Perfectly put it.
I love Kristen Bell with all my life😪😪
She is so bubbly and happy now, it makes me hard to believe she had anxiety and depression omg :(
I don't think she "had" anxiety and depression. She HAS them. She has to constantly manage.
I love her, she is so real
she's so amazing.
I used to be on medication but I was ashamed of it, and now I realize I don’t have to be
Great! Well said, Kristen ! Thank you.
I love her she is beutiful and honest person ❤
Wow. Im surprised. I love her more.
