extreme depression

has anyone here ever been through extreme depression? if yes are you still suffering from it? how are you coping? if you got out, what did you do? what helped, what didn't?

EDIT: thank you all for responding. dont know if any of you remember but years ago i tried 2 times to kill myself and ended up in the hospital both times, (only the old school peeps might remember, vivid boy might). since then i've been on anti-depressants and things got better, i guess the circumstances which were causing my depression didnt change, i had just learned to deal with it better. however now i think it's back =/

i've recently moved and things have been...up and down. the past few days were the worst, i would literally spend every single moment thinking and feeling like i'm in the worst hell imaginable. think of what its like to feel utterly lonely, completely lost, no one to talk to, feeling like nothing has any meaning or purpose, nothing can make you happy, and feeling that constantly in your mind, 24/7...thats how the last few days have been. i feel trapped as if i'm in some sort of prison with a life sentence all by myself on an island and just can't get out. it's really weird and hard to explain. i find that the more i think the worse i feel. my thoughts inevitably wander towards questions about life and meaning and all that deep shit i have no answers to, which just makes me feel that much more helpless. and thats the worst part...the helplessness to change my situation, to really change the way i feel.

so today i decided that im just gonna shut off my mind...or at least spend as little time using it as possible. and i'm already feeling better my mind is my worst enemy i think, and the less i use it the better i feel. so for now thats the plan im sticking to. im just gonna feel what i feel and not try and dwell too much on shit that happened in the past, recent or distant. and i think i'll be ok.

thank you all

wow.

How about you dont edit my posts? CUT CUT CUT CUT

or as i said afterwards, see a doctor.


Can we not hurt peoples feelings anymore?

Go to your doctor.

Keep your mind and body occupied, make long-lasting goals that are realistic for your station in life, take up a new hobby, talk to new people, reach out to your close friends and family - chances are excellent they will understand or be able to help you to understand. Above all, keep in mind that - unless you have a long history of depression - you *will* get over whatever it is that you are feeling, and you *will* feel good about your life again sometime soon, you just kind of have to grit your teeth and ride it out for a short while.

And this too shall pass, etc.

The doctor won't be able to help you!

that is all you need. get off your ass and go exercise. it's hard to be depressed when you're exerting yourself physically. you also have a better chance of improving your situation by not sitting around in your room all day. you've probably associated your current environment with your depression as well, so changing that environment allows you to change your mood. and if you eat a bunch of sugary, salty, fatty, processed foods, your mood will be shit no matter who you are.

Or file sharing..



man i had a good joke but i dont want to offend some people, i could care less about getting banned.

A diagnosis is what's needed, several and take the majority opinion and the internet isn't the place for that. Misdiagnosis of depression over the years for people just being 'Genuinely Unhappy' and then sending them on their way with a script ended up causing a lot of people, myself included a lot of grief in the long term.

If people give you a script be very wary, the medical solution for depression is usually to fill a chemical imbalance in the brain, some people get unlucky and just get it. Others with long term drug use find a big vacant hole up there which just doesn't get filled with the bodies natural chemistry and long since stopped manufacturing it due to introducing it artificially. Filling it back up with more prescription chemicals doesn't inspire the body to manufacture its own and as a result your brain will have a chemical dependency up there, the lack of up there will result in depression.
That's your classic chemical imbalance depression, your local heavy pot head and e-tard can tell you all about it... maybe

There is also psychological depression caused by extended emotional trauma which is a much more involved treatment to actually fix over time to get over it and move on with life, sadly, that too often just gets filled with a script, slap on the ass and out the door.
Not a shrink, wouldn't even give advice there.

Then there are people who are just plain 'Genuinely Unhappy', for whatever reason, that also gets misdiagnosed as being a clinical brain imbalance and treated with drugs.
Been there, done that and to some extent still quite upset about it because it doesn't really fix anything at a personal growth level, though I have to admit the drugs did wire up my brain in some really odd ways in terms of long term memory retention. But, back to the subject of personality development, its something people have to come to terms with on their own- specifically Loss and Failure, which in their own way are just as important to learn about in the life experience as are successes and measurements of gain over time.
There is a lot of hype about success and gain as a measure of net worth, very little time is given to consider the value of loss and failure, what was learned from it and how not to repeat it.
As a result, the world is often full of people that have no foundation in managing that area of their life, instead it builds up over time and eventually manifests as a psychological problem due to repeating the same mistakes over and over, without and management of the situation. Turning 'Unhappy' into severe depression.


Not addressing it to anyone in particular, just my 2cents of experience on the matter.

What the fuck?

when people were still hunting and gathering in the pre-industrial world, there was no such thing as depression, or suicide. that's because they spent all day in the sun working and sweating and eating real food. try to realign your lifestyle along those lines as much as possible. processed foods and sedentary lifestyle is a proven formula for poor mood.
