I need help...can someone give me advise on how to tell my dad and step mom i have this, when ever i try to say something i usualy get talked down to like im a piece of shit(mainly my step mom) im 15 and have had these feelings for years and dont know how ive made it this far.
@TheReviewer24 I'm 24 and have suffered for years, and while my mum and dad know I have suffered from depression, they still have no idea what it is and think it is just feeling sad and being lazy. I've come to watch this video to find things I can say to them to explain what it is and what I have been going through. I'm going to write them a letter describing how it is an illness, I think that will be the best way, and suggest you could try that?
@TheReviewer24 I talked to my girlfriend about it, she had the same beliefs as most people and wouldn't listen, thinking I was weak. I finally persuaded her to look at a few websites explaining depression, one was 'ways to insult someone with depression' (google it). It wasn't meant to show her how horrible she had been that she had had the same thoughts or said what was listed, but it really hit home because it proved to her that her misconceptions were wrong. Take care, contact me if you wish.
Clinical depression is very serious. It doesnt go away w.out help. Hospitalization, meds and/or therapy are acceptable treatments. Only recently was I told of the actual differences in reg. sadness vs. depression. I'm lucky that I got the help I needed when I did. U think it can't happen to u, but life is not always controllable. There is strength in getting help- it doesn't make u weak. U may have nothing left to lose.
I am depressed. I know if I had just one friend in the world it would make me feel a lot better and change my life. But I don't because I can't make friends. I have always been an outsider. What did I do wrong to deserve this pain and loneliness? I just wanna die...
I'm crying right now, as i do each day without exception. I have Asperger's Syndrome and i don't fit in. Never have. Besides, people used me for my high intelligence, and i have always giver rather than receiver, which caused me to have my distance with people and then i became a complete outsider. I want to die, i have planned everything. Hopefully i will be gone soon in a few days.
@MrElephantMemory Have you sought out professional care for your depression...Sometimes things in life can turn around very quickly...keep that in mind...People with lives they are very satisfied with can suddenly lose everything, and those who have lived in darkness for a very long time can begin to get better....But yes, navigating despair, especially when it is long-term, is soul crushing to say the least. Good luck to you, and remember that perhaps our sufferings are part of a larger picture
@mathiasgandy Yes, i tried medication assisted treatment, but it didn't work. The problem is i have a photographic memory and i remember almost everything happened in my life, which contains some very unpleasant events. I mean, they are stuck in my head and even if i'm listening to a favorite song or watching a good movie, these pop up and disrupt my pleasure. Loneliness doesn't help either but i cannot trust people. Anyway, thanks for your understanding and good luck to you, too.
Why is this so prevalent in the western world????? Because we have no real problems to worry about? Because we eat processed food and don't exercise on a regular basis?
Can someone explain why this is so prevalent because I know someone who says they have bad days all the %^&*()) time and they have nothing , I mean nothing to worry about.
I just don't get it. I lost loved ones, miss out on opptys but I don't dwell on sad things and I am healthy. Why can''t everyone manage life the same way?
depression... why? cant do anything worhtwhile with my time... im failing some of my classes.... it will put me back at least a half year... but i cant get myself to make it up... i cant make myself get up... cant go to sleep... 3 am... cold... alone... sweaty... unmoving... unresponsive... unable... what can i do? nothing to do... just enjoy the suffering... enjoy the pain... enjoy the anguish... nothing else to do...
Some people think Jesus is all you need to get over depression. Ive had Jesus since i was 5 years old and yet i cant get over this state of depression.
There's a small and excellent online depression support group called Depression Hangout that is always open to anyone who is struggling with mental health problems (not just depression). It's run in its own chaotic way by its members who meet regularly in the chat room and it's a great place to seek and provide help and support, make new friends and even just have a laugh. (We all need that too!) To join just go to depressionhangout-dot-blogspot-dot-com.
I have no talents. I have no friends. My father is dead my mother suffers from depression. My brother is anti social and never talks to me. My sister is into politics so she never thinks about me. As soon as i get home i go to my room and get on my computer all day. My emotions are pretty much gone i don't care about anything. I don't care if i die but i wont commit suicide. I don't ever hurt myself. I have adhd so all my hobbies are pretty much garbage. Medication does not help.
@Allanpullay I've gone thru depression my dads going thru depression (has been since he was 18). I've dealt w/ death in my life 2 my bff's mom died of cancer, she was like a mom 2 me & my bro hates me. When I felt nothin, life=pointless, but I've gotten thru it all. I've talked 2 pple & I've thought of endin everythin, but now I'm in college, I got2 jobs, I got some amazing frienz who r there 4 me & I'm on the road to becoming a lawyer. If u try & keep trying you'll be able 2 get thru it!
Great video. I've currently been diagnosed with a clinical depression for the 2nd time. To those lucky enough to never fall ill with this horrible disease, it can pretty much be described as being zombie-like. Nothing matters. My fridge is empty - so what. The trash is piling up around me - so what. Some days I never even get out of bed, and I haven't been in school since November because I've been slacking with my medicine and messed up my sleeping pattern.
ugh i hate depression i keep thinking i am selfish because i cant seem to be happy even though alot of people have it way worse and i felt so bad after trying to commit suicide and i am too scared to tell my friends about it because i dont want to trouble them -.-
i have deprssion too i never had a happy childhood, i always get yelled at my parents, im alway quiet at school i never get any attention, my communication is bad, i always get pressure alot
being depressed is just an illusion, i've also been there. What pulled me out of the misery was just 'opening my eyes'. I learned the things that they don't show on TV. I now started changingproject(.)com and I finally understand what life is all about. People should ask themself where the depression comes from, it's all about our mind and science already revealed that everything is connected to eachother and that we create reality by thinking, thoughts with powerful emotions become reality...
A girl that I write with said that she hates depressed people because they hate life and people with like cancer wants lo live more and longer. I told her that I don't have anyone that are depressed because it's like a disease. Most people that have had it a long time don't want to have it and don't choose to have it. I do agree that people should complain less and be more positive.
Medical point of view on the negative thought and depression is that they don’t know how it starts and they don’t know an exact cure. Okay! I know they try to suppress everything with pills. The doctors have to eat too lol big no! pills cannot cure depression, they only suppress the symptoms! There is no medicine out there that would ever cure any emotional or mental disorder. You have to cure the root of the problem. Why did one’s negative thinking start? When? What caused it? look in the root!
we live unnatural lives in an unnatural world eating unnatural stuff, no wonder we all get depressed, im depressed too, finally after years it's acknowlodged after being called lazy and stuff for years i started to even believe it myself. why just everybody just shut the fuck up and look to themself for crying out loud, people who tell people what to do are always assholes

I suffer with severe recurrent depression, anxiety and OCD and take Venlafaxine 300mg, Mirtazapine 45mg, Buspirone 45mg and Carbamazepine 600mg, yet still I go down. Depression is real, it’s a horrible debilitating illness which affects daily life to such an extent you are unable to function. But I remain strong, I'm training to become a doctor, getting help is a sign of strength, not weakness. You wouldn't stand there all-day trying to lift a huge stone, would you??
Depression is not a weakness of character! If we could get that into our own heads and care less about what other people think we could get on with healing much faster. The stigma exacerbates the illness so dramatically.
Kingcaras1234 it's a medical thing wrong with your brain how can u say somthing so hurtfull people suffer and die like me I'm not sad I have clinical depresion I get random waves of extream sadness these are not American probloms these are not white rich kid probloms these are not emo probloms it's one of the
You took the words right out of my mouth. We are the same, except I'm a girl, 20, who's never had a boyfriend either. My grades have been suffering, I have no motivation anymore, and I've pushed my friends away by being so irritable over just little things. They just don't get it, but I don't do it on purpose.
its very difficult, and it feels somewhat comforting to know im not alone.. though i hate that there are others out there feeling the way i do. if u are in university, i strongly recommend visiting counselling center if ur school has it. ive been seeing a psychologist thru it and am doing therapy, she is extremely kind and it feels really good just to talk to someone who understands. i also saw psychiatrist from school and he prescribed medicine which i just started.. see how it goes..
as i was diagnosed with clinical depression just a few days ago.. i hope you all the best, and i know u dont do it on purpose, cuz thats exactly how it is with me, but that is what my thoughts are bent upon, all my thoughts.. and thus, conversations always lead to my views on existence, with which others simply aren't open minded. im sure ud agree with this view of mine: happiness is the absence of negative emotions.. that absence can be found in death. ive shared that idea.. no one liked it lol
I really know how it feels like, and I'm only 16. Like you, I've been told that I'm talented in art or something similar, but I just can't seem to get happy sometimes. I used to be an A/A* student in my subjects, but I'm failing in all my grades. Life seems so empty and meaningless. Don't worry, you'll never be alone in these situations.
If you are depressed, know that you are not alone.

we don´t know really what is it but "pure hell" is what I described to my doctor, I have depression for4/5 years and it doesn´t go away it´s like a cancer wich feeds of your brain..
what the hell? said depression isn't anyone's fault. everything wrong in the world, as well as everybody's lives, is, was, and always be my fault. I've been carrying around all the world's problems all my life, and my b-day is coming up on the 11th, which i'm going to be 38.
depression isn't anybody's fault? that's crap, because everything is, was, and always be my fault. I'm the reason the world is as messed up as it is, It's all due to the fact that I wasn't aborted like I wanted. I hope everybody who reads my post hates me and demands my death. Thing is, I've been feeling this way for many, many years. Around 20 to be exact, like you care
Really good video, a much needed one too. I've suffered with this affliction for most of my life. The feeling dead inside bit is the one that resonates with me, I feel like this most of the time. Most of the time I just learn to cope.....til it bites me on the ass again. I'm going to the doctors tomorrow because I know all the signs when an episode is coming again, I know them like the back of my hand.
yea but wut r u suppose to do if u been having suicidal thoughts and then when u finally try to go get help and get on medicine, you find out you have to get put on a waiting list to be seen , and you dont have health insurance to go to a doctor to be seen right away, and you dont have alot of money to put for a doctor to be seen and you have no one to help you =(
I don't care about living or even dying anymore. I stopped trying to kill myself a long time ago. I can't sleep normally. I stay up as long as possible, then crash from lack of sleep. I am too stressed to sleep on my own. I can't concentrate on anything. I'm not passionate about anything. I don't love or hate. Every day is just grey and blah.
the only thing im passionate about is doing weights, getting as big as i can. but even then each night i realize how incredibly insignificant getting big actually is.. i just need a girlfriend, and to get layed.. but what girl wants to hang out with a boring cunt whos been depressed pretty much his whole liffe.. lol
5 HTP, smoke sum weed and be more wilder , Your not depressed because if you were, you would definantly not be lifting weights. Go to the movies till your broke, meet sum girl , listen to music 24/7
At least you are passionate about something... I don't think you are suffering from depression... just normal ups and downs. Not getting layed is the problem
@Infiniteuphorix Hello, I know how you feel. Lifting gives me something to focus on, or distract me, but it's a goal and something I enjoy. I say keep doing it--it's not insignificant. Girlfriends aren't always the answer either, at least for me I have a lot of relationship problems. take care
@gorwell97 its funny looking back on this post of mine about depression. i must of been in a bad way to actually post something on a depression video.. i have a gorgeous gf now and i cant be much happier really. does make all the difference having someone to share your life with. take care ;)
5 HTP IT WILL help you sleep foreal, Im going through sum crazy stuff , but we all are gonna to make it out because life is beautiful and life really exist. stay strong mate, I love you because , You share grief lookin for help I learned to be humble with Jesus in these times.......MUCH LOVE
ye trust me i know how u feel i been ther i stoppd eating for so long coz of it bu u now therz many things to do that help i joined a dance class to get my mind of things and gave myself aims to acheive in order to have smething to look forward to rather than to think lifes shit :) xx

My Mom Committed Suicide when I wasn't even 2 years of age. My Dad blamed himself for what happened and started drinking and continued until his death in 1984. My Brother tried to commit suicide, and my other brother has battled depression over the years.
Myself? I've had 5 major bouts with depression and I can tell you that it SUCKS!! If there is anything good about it I suppose it would be that the quite generally last from a Month and a half to no longer than 2 Months. But, It sucks.
It's not whether people would be better off without you, it's about being better off without having to feel so tortured every day. Anti-depressants don't help, but it keeps the doctor thinking he's helping. If it weren't for my two children, I would have been outta here 9 years ago. There are times it gets so bad, I rationalize about my kids. They'll do just fine. Natural suicide is now on my agenda. Get ill and let it kill you. No one has to know it was through neglect. No stigma for the family
i've been depressed, I did some drugs, and frankly i can't remember a thing. I am sucidal as well, but that's really not the point. The idea that people would be better off without you is usually just plain false. You might be an emotional sinkhole now, but the truth is you'll be a bigger one dead. Still, life is a choice everyone has to make for themselves.
im 14 and ive been feeling the way i do for a number of years. it runs in the familly. but i dont know if i have depression or if its just my dissorder (borderline personality disorder) i dont think is the dissorder cause im allways like i am. ive been thinking about suicide for a few months, i feel like everyone would be better without me. like my life is pointless, so why not make right of it.
14 is far to young to be making those decisions. I had a mental breakdown at around that age, mostly from smoking to much weed but other things as well. Sucide runs in my family too. I'm 22 now, and my life is still hard but I'm getting on. I can't tell you what to do, everyone has to make their own decisions, but you know that your loved ones will be worse off with you dead than alive. As you grow you will natuarally become more independant.
I feel dead inside. Can't cry and dont care about anything. Lost interest in everything I love. When I wake up after 11 hours sleep I develop a stress headache and am tired for the day and anxious even though I feel happy for 5 minutes after waking up. I only begin to feel great when its time to go to bed, I sleep bad and I'm back to square 1 again.. I'm too nice for my own good, I find it hard to say no... I Cant focus at my course, I just stare blank all day. I've been like this since I was 12
this is hard for me when i feel like crying i keep it in so no one sees me crying but when theres no one around i dont feel like crying but i still want to but somethings keeping me from crying
I have a problem. I've been suffering from depresion for a long time now and not many people know about it, just my mam and 2 friends. I want to start feeling better but nothings working, i've tried going out more and hanging out with people, but being in a crowded place full of happy people make's me feel shit, because im the only one who feels like shit. I cant take any medication for it either because i suffer from epilepsiy and mixing the medication could cancel one of the other out.
Thanks, i think my hobby's are what are helping i've recently been out skating too, and its cheering me up, exersise is suppose to be a good way to make you feel good about yourself, so i figured i'd start doing it, and i do feel a little cheerier, thanks for taking notice, i know its not much but i'll sub to your channel for the kind words
Its the summer to, i tend to cheer up more in the summer in the winter i go into a type of hibernation. going to see my nuro on the 1st and i been drinking a bit to much but i havent got the money to do anything else, thinking of bumming around France but i dout that will pan out, i think i Sub to your channel as well good luck
Things should turn up, why dont you try getting one of those sun lights, theres a type of depression whats caused from lack of sun light, its wierd i know, but its supposed to work. May aswell give it a try, good luck with everything, and thanks.
Yes i thought of that but its also the weather, i like to go for country walks as well which make s me feel better though my poor dog has only three legs so i have to walk slowly sometimes.
Have you ever thought of doing a gig, are you part of a band? maybe you could do something like that, we put on a gig over a month ago and we were looking for musicians. i live near Canterbury Kent by the way
I dont really play for money, i wouldnt say i'm that good anyway, i just play for fun, sorry to hear about your dog. I just recently got put on a new type of anti-depresion, i hope this stuff kicks in lol, i've heard it can take upto 3 months for it to really take effect.
I did get put on Prozac for a while even though i have epilepsy but it made me a little to happy because i did the un british thing of talking to complete strangers with a smaile on my face.
As for my dog well it was was his breed that got him in trouble because he likes to chase things like rabbits etc and can just disapear and not come back for quite a while, hes a jack russell by the way but he pretty much stays close to me now, roads were the problem, also killed my grandma on a zebra crossi
man thats harsh, loosing a loved one is hard, my granda drank herself to death till her liver fail'd, as for my mother she's hell bent on doing the same thing, jack russels can be a handfull though, i hope i end up walking up to straingers like that lol, i'd probably get my face smashed in round here though lol
oh god this video explains alot about how i feel tbh .....its horrible not even being able to get up in the morning ,you feel so useless , just feel like your in the way of other peoples life's relie'n on them all the the time ....feel like a fcuk'n enfent .... i set up a vid about depression to help others aswell ...it has a link on the information section for a downloadable e-book if any one is interested....
Sorry I have no idea what you want... if you're so curious about references, surely it's not too hard to look at the links in the side bar. Or at the end of the video. It is from these sites that I got the information. Not sure what else you want... harvard format referencing?
Read Explaining colours to a blind man. Not only will it enlighten many as to what living with a mental illness is like, it also gives comfort to those sufferers who think there is no hope and that they are alone. It is very informative, sometimes shocking but also very funny in parts. All in all, a good read and highly recommended.
Ive been put on citaopram for my depression but i still feel like total shit, i was told it can take up to six weeks to start working though. Suicide is an easy escape and one which realy appeals in my darkest hours
Theyve put me up to 20mg now and another drug called lorazepam to help me control my severe anxiety. Im extremely messed up and have just started my journey to recovery.
Hmm. If it's starting to work then fair dues. I think its more horses for courses: I've tried Prozac and Citalopram and quit both due to their side effects on my overall mood.
Do whatever it takes man, but for those out there still drinking whilst suffering illness: for the love of GOD, QUIT!
We all know how them thoughts can very easily turn into actions when drunk.
I dont know if i am depressed or not, but all the time i am just questioning who i am, why are we here. and the answer is allways the same thing. There is no point to life but to suffer. I feel every one is just against me, I dont know if this is depression, or just something every one goes through at one point in time.... (by the way, no i am not religeous, wont even consider it.)
excellent video. i have been dealing with this most of my life i need to show this video to my family so they can understand. thank you for posting this.
Does anyone know the name of the song playing in this video? i have heard it before i just cant remember.
I suffer from clinical depression. I feel so alone at times I dont know what to do anymore. If anyone can give me a suggestion I would appreciate it. Please dont mark it as spam.
I suffer from depression... when first diagnosed with it I thought my doctor was talkin out his ass. But I took the prescribed medicine and noticed a huge difference. However since November when I lost my health insurance I have been unable to afford it... yesterday all I could think about was suicide and how I've come to a point where death seems like a better answer then living. I'm better today but I know that depression is real... prior I thought it was just all in my head.
but i know what one day i will get out of it .. so plz .. do not think of suicide. i know you will come to a point where you cannot even think.. you just want to die ... at that point .. try to sleep, sleeping means escaping from what ur in, after u wake up ull bexome a bit better
hello... to all who are experiencing clinical depression or any sort of depression... I know its the hardest thing ever... everything seems blackened, dark, dim, sad.... i ve been experiencing it every 4 months since 4 years... every 4 months i go into clinical depression for 2 weeks... i always think of suicide
i have had major deppretion since i was 12 and i'm 13 now. it has gotten worse i have had 3 theripests and i still see one of them. the guy who perscibes stuff will be on vaction for about 2 months so i was wondering what should i do to deal with it?
I'm not a doctor, psychiatrist or psychologist, but if you're experiencing major depression, I'd suggest talking about it with people. Maybe you could see another doctor. Or you could see a psychologist and have therapy.
dude same problem here same age too ive even contimplated killing myself at times i took an overdose of sleeping pills i hope rly hope i get better soon
Depression hurts and if u don't actually suffere from it u will never know. It's a painful feeling to fell isolated and alone in such a big world full of people. It'a painful to feel sad all the time and not knowing why and how to stop it. You would have to walk through someones shoes through out those dark and lonely times
Not alot of people know what it's like to feel sad and low every day of their lives and for those that do I'm sorry. God bless you for highlighting such a sensitive issue.
Remember that when you are trying to help someone who is depressed--the thing that person needs to use to seek help and treatment, their brain, is the very thing that is being effected by the depression. You wouldn't be angry at a diabetic for not producing insulin. Patience and compassion--especially if you yourself are depressed--is necessary. You have to remember that you WILL get through this but GET HELP.
Yeh and it can be similar to diabetes in terms of not producing enough of a certain chemical. I don't produce enough seratonin which promotes a feeling of well being in the brain. As a result im anxious and depressed. I also have OCD and ADHD/ Aspergers Syndrome traites. I am on sertraline but the medication is too weak in terms of the dose.
Completely disconnected from everything, and everyone. That's how I describe it. The thing that helped was being encouraged by friends to take baby steps toward treatment. The worst thing someone could do is to shock you or "tough love" you into getting help by telling you you're ruining your family, marriage, kids, etc... to make you aware of how bad things are.
Omgoodness i can only imagine how bad it would feel to be told "get a grip, lighten up, snap out of it" - ooer... yeah that's not the way to go about it at all
I have clinical depression and now I'm on Prozac...

@TheReviewer24 I'm 24 and have suffered for years, and while my mum and dad know I have suffered from depression, they still have no idea what it is and think it is just feeling sad and being lazy. I've come to watch this video to find things I can say to them to explain what it is and what I have been going through. I'm going to write them a letter describing how it is an illness, I think that will be the best way, and suggest you could try that?

I am depressed. I know if I had just one friend in the world it would make me feel a lot better and change my life. But I don't because I can't make friends. I have always been an outsider. What did I do wrong to deserve this pain and loneliness? I just wanna die...

Why is this so prevalent in the western world????? Because we have no real problems to worry about? Because we eat processed food and don't exercise on a regular basis?
Can someone explain why this is so prevalent because I know someone who says they have bad days all the %^&*()) time and they have nothing , I mean nothing to worry about.
I just don't get it. I lost loved ones, miss out on opptys but I don't dwell on sad things and I am healthy. Why can''t everyone manage life the same way?

There's a small and excellent online depression support group called Depression Hangout that is always open to anyone who is struggling with mental health problems (not just depression). It's run in its own chaotic way by its members who meet regularly in the chat room and it's a great place to seek and provide help and support, make new friends and even just have a laugh. (We all need that too!) To join just go to depressionhangout-dot-blogspot-dot-com.

I have no talents. I have no friends. My father is dead my mother suffers from depression. My brother is anti social and never talks to me. My sister is into politics so she never thinks about me. As soon as i get home i go to my room and get on my computer all day. My emotions are pretty much gone i don't care about anything. I don't care if i die but i wont commit suicide. I don't ever hurt myself. I have adhd so all my hobbies are pretty much garbage. Medication does not help.

Great video. I've currently been diagnosed with a clinical depression for the 2nd time. To those lucky enough to never fall ill with this horrible disease, it can pretty much be described as being zombie-like. Nothing matters. My fridge is empty - so what. The trash is piling up around me - so what. Some days I never even get out of bed, and I haven't been in school since November because I've been slacking with my medicine and messed up my sleeping pattern.

being depressed is just an illusion, i've also been there. What pulled me out of the misery was just 'opening my eyes'. I learned the things that they don't show on TV. I now started changingproject(.)com and I finally understand what life is all about. People should ask themself where the depression comes from, it's all about our mind and science already revealed that everything is connected to eachother and that we create reality by thinking, thoughts with powerful emotions become reality...

Medical point of view on the negative thought and depression is that they don’t know how it starts and they don’t know an exact cure. Okay! I know they try to suppress everything with pills. The doctors have to eat too lol big no! pills cannot cure depression, they only suppress the symptoms! There is no medicine out there that would ever cure any emotional or mental disorder. You have to cure the root of the problem. Why did one’s negative thinking start? When? What caused it? look in the root!

Depression is real, it’s a horrible debilitating illness which affects daily life to such an extent you are unable to function. But I remain strong, I'm training to become a doctor, getting help is a sign of strength, not weakness. You wouldn't stand there all-day trying to lift a huge stone, would you??

Depression is not a weakness of character! If we could get that into our own heads and care less about what other people think we could get on with healing much faster. The stigma exacerbates the illness so dramatically.

as i was diagnosed with clinical depression just a few days ago.. i hope you all the best, and i know u dont do it on purpose, cuz thats exactly how it is with me, but that is what my thoughts are bent upon, all my thoughts.. and thus, conversations always lead to my views on existence, with which others simply aren't open minded. im sure ud agree with this view of mine: happiness is the absence of negative emotions.. that absence can be found in death. ive shared that idea.. no one liked it lol

It's not whether people would be better off without you, it's about being better off without having to feel so tortured every day. Anti-depressants don't help, but it keeps the doctor thinking he's helping. If it weren't for my two children, I would have been outta here 9 years ago. There are times it gets so bad, I rationalize about my kids. They'll do just fine. Natural suicide is now on my agenda. Get ill and let it kill you. No one has to know it was through neglect. No stigma for the family

i've been depressed, I did some drugs, and frankly i can't remember a thing. I am sucidal as well, but that's really not the point.

Still, life is a choice everyone has to make for themselves.

I suffer from depression... when first diagnosed with it I thought my doctor was talkin out his ass. But I took the prescribed medicine and noticed a huge difference. However since November when I lost my health insurance I have been unable to afford it... yesterday all I could think about was suicide and how I've come to a point where death seems like a better answer then living. I'm better today but I know that depression is real... prior I thought it was just all in my head.

I'm not a doctor, psychiatrist or psychologist, but if you're experiencing major depression, I'd suggest talking about it with people. Maybe you could see another doctor. Or you could see a psychologist and have therapy.

Depression hurts and if u don't actually suffere from it u will never know. It's a painful feeling to fell isolated and alone in such a big world full of people. It'a painful to feel sad all the time and not knowing why and how to stop it. You would have to walk through someones shoes through out those dark and lonely times

God bless you.
Not alot of people know what it's like to feel sad and low every day of their lives and for those that do I'm sorry. God bless you for highlighting such a sensitive issue.

Thank you. It's nice to have validation. I wish I had cancer instead cause then people would at least have some sense of compassion.

yeah its a pity that people don't really understand that it is different from just being down in the dumps. Can't just get over it.

Important information. Too often there is a stigma placed on mental health issues which shouldn't exist.

Remember that when you are trying to help someone who is depressed--the thing that person needs to use to seek help and treatment, their brain, is the very thing that is being effected by the depression. You wouldn't be angry at a diabetic for not producing insulin. Patience and compassion--especially if you yourself are depressed--is necessary. You have to remember that you WILL get through this but GET HELP.
Great video.

Yeh and it can be similar to diabetes in terms of not producing enough of a certain chemical. I don't produce enough seratonin which promotes a feeling of well being in the brain. As a result im anxious and depressed. I also have OCD and ADHD/ Aspergers Syndrome traites. I am on sertraline but the medication is too weak in terms of the dose.
Should I jack it up?

Completely disconnected from everything, and everyone. That's how I describe it. The thing that helped was being encouraged by friends to take baby steps toward treatment. The worst thing someone could do is to shock you or "tough love" you into getting help by telling you you're ruining your family, marriage, kids, etc... to make you aware of how bad things are.

Omgoodness i can only imagine how bad it would feel to be told "get a grip, lighten up, snap out of it" - ooer... yeah that's not the way to go about it at all
