i WAS happy before i watched this video.... this video made me depressed lol seriously this isn't making anybody any happier. Epic Fail to you Sovchr instead of making of a video of depressing facts any depressed person could just google why not instead make a video that MAKES depressed people happy again? It will be a daunting challenge but if you suceed you will help make the world a better place. It is said everyman has atleast one 1million dollar oppurtunity in his life... this is yours.
@monkey298 - This video is about raising depression awareness. This video is aimed at those who are not aware of depression. I understand your frustration, if you are expecting something else. However, I have spoke all over the Michigan area, showing this video to raise awareness. It has been well received, and raised a lot of discussion, which I set out to do. I hope to make a video like you mentioned in the future. Peace be with you.
My experience with depression had led to suicide attempts I would talk myself out of, a worse family situation, and a strained relationship with friends. In turn, my friends fell in depression, one even turned to starving as a self-harm. While I am now a young girl who dresses casual and always smiles, I temperarily fall into lapses of depression over night, but I have someone to talk to. It sucks when people ask why I'm so happy, not too many people seem to realize why happiness is so -c-
@SSgtCaps important. Too many people joke around about it. Although the experience was terrible, I'm glad I went through it. It has taught me a valuable life lesson that I will be happy to help others learn.
@SSgtCaps - glad to hear you have grown from it. Please share what you've learned with as many others as possible! You know how awful it can be. Spread the love.
I personally wouldn't recommend drugs unless as a last resort, or even a therapist. At the end of the day, it is you who is going to change yourself. Obviously different things work for different people but I would recommend looking into philosophy, spirituality or science. Widen your knowledge of different perspectives on life. Meditate on new ideas, and your own feelings. Get some exercise. Eat well. Find a problem to solve, big or small. The world really is your oyster ;) With love, Smiff.
There is always a reason. I was depressed for a long period last summer. I got out of it by really addressing why I was the way I was. It is no use to quash it or ignore it. It may numb for a while but it will no doubt reappear. I was dissatisfied with the world in general. I found myself thinking 'what's the point?' a lot. That and I was severely afraid of death. I addressed my fears honestly, I found myself an objective and a reason to continue on the path and take control of my life.
I have depression, I want people to understand it's not out fault. I don;t want to feel this way. I have tried suicide twice and been hospitalized recently for 3 weeks. Idk if it helped me at all. The thoughts of hurting myself are always there. I don't want to give up, life is worth living. But some days things seem so dark it consumes you and thats when you cant help but think maybe death would be easier. My advice is get help, it may be hard and a long journey. It has to get better.
If you feel brave and would like to help raise public awareness about this illness, please post your experiences with depression ... even with a fake account if you'd like.
