Wait... Wouldn't it be the opposite... If you're feeling happiness all the time, how would you experience the other emotions?
Wouldn't it go the same way as depression? :(
Everyone needs balance in their lives.
I see what you mean if your previous video. If you're feeling depression here and there, it's "good" because... you get to experience the lowest point in feeling.... With that, you experience a wider range of feeling.
The one thing to be prevented at all costs is self harm. I survived suicide and now regret I ever tried. I knew a girl who did and now it's too late for me to help her. whatever you do colorme, don't harm yourself. It isn't fair that some people have massive egos and go through life hurting others, while we question our existence. I know I have many times before. I''ve been learning to forgive myself.
Actually, I listen to the videos and don't really watch because I like the sound of colorme's clear and intelligent speaking voice with depth. After being deeply suicidal for years and without hope, i've come to understand it's a mood. Like being in the mood for ice cream one day, and another day something else. A bad mood can pass. I can't promise one will go from depression to doing cartwheels, but there are moments of clarity one will experience now and then. It can get better.
Depression might not be a good thing, but because people who suffer from depression are so use to that feeling it becomes normal to them, And people are afraid of change in their lives. And i totally agree with you about being sad is normal.
I used to be depressed. Then one day I said to myself there must be a way for humans to know what to do with their lives. I asked what religion has real answers. Not feel ggo9d mantras. To make a long story short I ended up becoming a Catholic. Believe it or not it is all true. Jesus is God and he was here on earth and if you follow the rules you will be happy.
The hardest rule is no premarital sex. That is the rule that turns everyone off.
I was wondering if you'd put away your video camera for good or what. You're brave and honest about your depression and I believe that's helpful to people. There are such strong taboos against depression. In my own life, I found it a great relief to know I was not alone. Good to see you again!
Hey. Depression sucks, and sometimes we feel like we can't escape it. Well, maybe that's me.
I had to find a way to fight it, and I posted that way in a video I made called "let me help" maybe it can help in a period of darkness for you. Just check out my channel and watch it. I'm not like just trying to use your pain as a springboard for my fame, I just think it might help you feel a little better. There's no religion in it, there's no assumptions, its just there to show you something. :)
Hello again. I am glad you are feeling better. My hope is that you will continue to post videos and share your wisdom with others.Depression can be either good or bad. Our perceptions and beliefs have a lot to do with whether we develop healthy or destructive reactions.
i've dealt with depression off and on for years and in MANY different ways to the healthy to the not so healthy (you can take guesses from there :P) but my personal "savior" is industrial music particuarly gothic music. why? dunno just is. also writing (either in a journal or poem) or drawing works too.
I have found that much of my best poetry I've written over the years is done when I'm depressed, not completely depressed, (as I said before that is paralyzing), but just a bit depressed .... Elemental feelings come out of depression. In that sense it can be a revelation.
I personally back you 100%. It is ok to be depressed. If people want to read into that, it's their deal with their perception. For me all it means is there is NO WAY I am ever going to believe that shame has a right to top the sundae.
hey, colormeviolet. I'm happy to see you made a video again. :D I miss them a lot. but I feel bad that you feel depressed a lot. :/ or just are depressed sometimes. that must suck well hope you get better, and make more soon. plus I've been depressed too were I thought I lost all hope too. so if you ever want to talk about it with me I am more than willing to talk with you :] bye for now tho.
Hello. I appreciate your videos and perspective. I suggest taking a look at Vipassana Meditation. There are several centers all over the world. If you would like to learn more, let me know.
I love you, you green and purple haired, depressed, french speaking woman :) I hope and pray that today was a GREAT day for you!!!! thought of you all day :) the depression thing....been there, done that, bought the T shirt and wear it every fuckin day :) I'm not ashamed either :)
I think at my most hopeless time in my life, therapy really helped me. It took a long time but I feel like I own my thoughts and feelings now. I think your right that sadness is a part of life but we cant have it overrun us. Good candid video :)
Did indeed miss your videos. And like the hair, btw.
Glad the video helped, too. I seem to do my best work when I'm miserable, and often emerge stronger and wiser. One time, though, there was no redemption at all, just a PIT.
Feeling that no one truly understands contributes - only one part of it, but a significant part, I think. So know that you ain't alone, doll, and one glance at you channel confirms there are several hundred people who rather like the sound of your voice.
Good to see you back too but, there is a difference between feeling "sad" and being clinically depressed. When I've been clinically depressed in my life I was so paralyzed I couldn't even get out of bed,think,talk, or even feel it "will get better". Lost all hope is lost ALL hope, and that is a very dark place that exsists in our minds, and if a person has never been there they probably don't understand it. This is mainly said to others and not to you. I like your willingness to talk so freely.

But still, always strive to be in the middle.

No masterbation either.
