Depression how do you guys deal? - SIM-3221368 - Feb 21, 2023
People, who deal with severe depression and anxiety how do you deal? Meditation doesn't do very much for me. Music is a hit or miss as well.

I went to a therapist a few years ago and was diagnosed with some kind of depressive disorder. No longer have the funds to resume have begun trying alternative means of healing.

Don't you have free resources, aka going to a public therapist? I don't know if that's a thing where you live, but here you can visit the therapist for free if you don't want to go to a private clinic. Were you put on any meds before? What does your day consist of right now?

It's all mental in my opinion. I've dealt with addiction, depression, anxiety. You need to stop feeling sorry for yourself and just from a day to another change the way your mind thinks. Tell yourself your okay. Do productive things, find things that give you happiness such as playing a sport, gyming, finding a friend/mate that you can talk to, find ways to make money can be anything really.
I know that it's the toughest specially when your so low but you just need to tell yourself It's not going to get any worse can only get better from this point!

this could sound "basic" but it's actually a really good advice , try your best to get something positive out of this situation , you're in a shit position right? well the positive thing is that you can try your best to "get out" of it.
PS : it's not easy at all i know myself i've been in a "shit" situation for over 5/6 years and i haven't done as many steps forward as I wished I had

This post is perfect.
If you're feeling depressed, it could be a signal from your body and mind that you need to make some changes in your life. You likely listen to your boss at work because you respect them, so why not extend that same respect to yourself and listen to your body's messages?
Think of anxiety as excitement. When you're about to ride a rollercoaster for the first time, you may feel anxious, but it's actually your body expressing excitement. Try reframing things and exploring the true message of the moment.
I hope you'll take the necessary steps to improve your life.

RE: Depression how do you guys deal? - Trilloquence - Mar 5, 2023
I just recently started Sertraline im at 50mg at the moment doc wants me at 150, but thing is before starting them I'd have horrible anxiety, daily, panic attacks multiple times per day... since i've been on them my anxiety has been baseline not there... but for the trade of the brightness of life i'd want to call it.... I just don't really know how to explain it at the moment so will continue with increase as doc wants and see how things go... people say these don't really actually help help til 2+ weeks so...
Cheers,
~Trill
