Family is the only source of friendship which I can rely on but it is slowly slipping away from me and I'm just getting lonelier and lonelier. I can talk to people and i do associate with "groups" of people but I cant class them as friends when I mask my true identity to fit the environment and people around me all the time. Even the things I love doing are losing value and all I want to do is lie in darkness and fall asleep.

I’ve had major depressive disorder, PTSD, and borderline personality disorder for 6 years and the most effective treatment I ever received was cognitive behavioral therapy. My favorite therapist worked with me on cognitive behavioral therapy and radical acceptance of the current situation I’m in and I’m 100% sure that it saved my life. The ability to stop and look at things rationally and logically when you’re in the middle of an emotional crisis is incomparable, I’ve been off meds for 3 years and while I definitely still struggle, these strategies have stuck with me and keep me going. I also recommend getting a pet if you feel like you can handle it and are ready for them long-term, you’re never lonely and always have to get out of bed to care for them whether you want to or not.

I used to escape from depression into work and sex, it actually does work for me quite well, but as others have said the main goal is to find something that really works. It all boils down to whether or not one could re-program the mind to work for you and not against you. Most people find meaning in family and its generated problems that comes with it (raising a child and so on) but as I see more and more people opt-out this option so having more spare time is actually destructive for the mind. Ultimately we should just learn how to live or experience a more meaningful life without less outside stimulus

With out OCD schedules in modern life and work it's important to get some sun on your face. It's important to walk in a place where you safe and free from people that spew their judgemental garbage. It's good to find someone that doesn't just or try to control and just be goofy sometimes. That inner child is screaming, crying and needs attention. I find when I was bad I was looking in judging myself against a stupid set of standards our sick society has places as goals. I remember when people were judged by when they went to far the ones that were really nice people would step up and loudly proclaim that they were being an ass and that they were the problem not the person they were just ripping apart the little part of them that was holding on. I'm not talking about the stupidity of today but like telling yo mama joke in front of a man's mother while he's tied up "depression". It's sometimes like a stress test for the mind in this word with a psychotic prick making up the rules. I used to hate myself now I just don't give a F*** what anyone thinks since I'm the one that is in this body and they are like a disease trying to infect me with their own insanity that is aggressive like someone made them a god. Just get out of your own head and get some sun and help someone but not someone that will not appreciate it and they will give you the esteem from the look you get when they realize someone cares about them also.

Yes and no. There are ppl whos lives are full of unmet needs yet they dont struggle with suicidal thoughts every day. Most ppl live out bland, noneventful existences in fact but are relatively, somewhat mutely contentish'. Yet ppl who have what would seem as all ones needs met can still feel flat, despondent and completely disaffected. They have recently used electro stimulation on different parts of ppl who have depressions brains and have discovered stimulating these parts alleviated depression almost instantly, similarly with a form of ketamine and psychedelics. So to reduce it to merely unmet needs is pretty reductive.

For a healthier life sit on a chair, back straight, eyes closed and observe the sensations of your incoming--outgoing breath at the entrance of the nostrils for around 5-10-15 minutes or more. Don’t fight your thoughts. Slowly the mind will relax. No deep breathing needed.

My reason to do so is my childhood experience that when I showed sad feelings I nearly immediately got criticised for having them or was blamed for the circumstances that caused them. When I was really young my mother would even threaten me when I was crying. She said: Why are you crying? You have got no reason to cry. Stop - or I will give you a reason to cry! Later with friends I made the experience that when I showed signs of being depressed I either got showered with useless advice or they left (because they had only been interested in the friendship as long as I was able to give them attention and energy). So putting on a mask always has been the best option - and develop the skills to detect false friends in an early stage of friendship and getting rid of them.

depression and anxiety is like the worst disease you can get

I had a awesome upbringing. No traumas. I was 16 sitting in Algebra class. It got cloudy outside and began to rain. All of a sudden a wave of sadness came over me and I started to cry for no reason. I had to leave class and go home because I had no idea what the hell was going on. I had to be hospitalized at age 16. There were no troubles in my life. I just kept hearing in my head, why do we live when we’re going to die anyway? Long story short, my hormones were out of wack. Same thing happened after the birth of my two daughters. I was experiencing depression, not being “depressed”. So my point is make sure you get hormones checked if feeling really down.

The thing that really saved me from my depression were not specifically the medicine and therapy I received, but selling my house, getting a steadier financial situation and moving from the depressive evironment I was living in.

This part, struck deep abt 28mins in. 👉🏼"Cognitive Rigidity, the key problem with depressed people is that they think things and make the mistakes in actually believing in themselves. " "Without the ability to learn how to go outside of urself, and reality test - all u can do is be a prisoner of ur own thoughts, and if ur own thoughts are depressing - U ARE IN TROUBLE!" This has been my issue since my 1st teen trauma at 14. I have suffered more traumas afterwards. Now I'm in my 40s and I'm in this mental loop because I don't have the tools to help myself. I can't mask it any longer. I masked it with marijuana as a teen, I masked it with alcohol as an adult. Pulled myself away from alcohol. I just want to stop this madness, I'm sure all who have depression want to. My brain is acting like it doesn't want to work past this loop of my own thinking at this point. 😢 I have been a prisoner of my mind for a very long time. I want to be free, so I can live the life God has for me. I want to find what will work for me specifically. So I am actively trying to figure this out. And pray that I can free myself before it's too late. 🙏🏼

I think of my depression like a bug inside me; eating. Can’t kill it, it always comes back, it’s always there. It’s taken everything from me, and it wants more. True, real, clinical depression is something I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy. I hope I get better, and if you’re empathizing with me, I hope you get better too.

the biggest moment in this video was his mention of teaching problem solving skills and social skills to very young kids.

Most of the things he mentioned in this video are great for preventive purposes but it gets very hard once someone has entered the clinical depression cause these things become 100x harder to apply when you don't even care if you live or die 😔 One more thing i would like to disagree about is you can still have a sense of humor even if you are depressed like somedays i survive just by laughing something out instead of crying over it ..most depressed people also use humor as a defense mechanism.

By a long margin the best talk on depression and how to manage it that I have ever heard. Dr Yapko is a truly brilliant academic and his presentation should be required listening for all clinicians and their patients.

The most important decision you will ever make in this life is where you will spend eternity. Are you 100% sure that you have a home in heaven? The Bible says that you can know. If your belief is based on anything other than complete faith in the finished work of Jesus on the cross, you do not understand God's way to heaven. The Bible says that we are all sinners. When God created Adam and Eve, He made them perfect without sin, but they chose to disobey God and became sinful in nature. This sin nature was passed down to all humanity. Romans 5:12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned: Our sin separates us from God. Romans 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; A holy, righteous God cannot allow sin into heaven. Sin must be paid for and God's price for sin is death, but not just a physical death, but a spiritual death which means separation from God forever in hell. Revelation 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. In the Old Testament when man sinned, God required the sacrifice of a perfectly spotless lamb as a substitute in the place of the sinner. The blood of that lamb was only a temporary payment for their sin and so this had to be done often. Jesus Christ, God's Son took on flesh, was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life and offered Himself as that perfect, spotless Lamb and shed His blood as payment for the sins of the whole world. John 1:29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world. Jesus loved us so much He WILLINGLY came and allowed wicked men to spit on Him, mock Him and scourge Him until He was unrecognizable. They stripped him naked, thrust a crown of thorns on His head and nailed His hands and feet to a cross. He hung in agony for hours bleeding, thirsting, struggling for every breath. He died innocently in our place so that we could be saved from going to hell. It was His blood that satisfied the just demands of a holy God. God will not accept anything else. There is no greater love than that! John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. The good news is that Jesus didn't stay dead in the grave. He came back to life 3 days later just like He promised and He still lives today! Matthew 28:5 And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified. 6. He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay. Jesus did all this because He wants to give you the FREE gift of eternal life in heaven with Him! You cannot do anything to earn your own way into heaven. You can't work for it, be baptized for it, go to church for it or try to be good enough for it. It is a FREE gift that God is offering to anyone who will simply receive it by faith. Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Ephesians 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9. Not of works, lest any man should boast. God said there is only one way to get to heaven, but it is not hard. You must repent, change your mind and admit you are a sinner headed for hell. You must believe that Jesus died and paid for your sin with His own blood on the cross, was buried and 3 days later rose from the dead. Then you must simply call on Him and ask Him to save you. Romans 10:9 that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 13. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. None of us deserve God's mercy and grace, but let me warn you that if you reject His FREE gift, you are already condemned and when you die, you will suffer the torment of burning in hell for eternity in a lake of fire where you will be forever separated from God and all that is loving and good. John 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. Revelation 20:15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. Please don't wait. Don't take the risk of putting it off until another day, repent, turn to Christ NOW wherever you are at because you aren't guaranteed to live another day on this Earth. Believe God's Word, ask Him to save you and He will! ---------------------------------------------------------------- If you would like more information or don't have a church to attend, we livestream our services and would love for you to join us.

I have watched so many lectures recently on depression, a bunch of great one's like the one by Robert Sapolsky. This is so close to actual depression, and so much more invested and close to actually working practice, it is amazing. Really pure gold for me as a psychology teacher.

I didn’t listen for entertainment purposes; I’ve been hobbled by depression since I was 8. I’m now 72, see 2 therapists, am maxed out on psychotropics, and this is the first time I have heard actual practical steps toward helping me out of my “reflexive style.” Here I am, in Tucson Arizona, and I had to listen to the entire lecture twice-because it was so impactful.

Something I've been struggling with in recent years is not feeling like anything, and that phrase, like "emotions pass, consequences stay" has really resonated strongly, thank you.

"Patterns of self- organization", thank you for sharing this information, you seem to have some good insight into this. I agree depression is contagious. I've loss my house to a tornado, then loss my house again to a house fire, and then went through a messy divorce where he tried to kill me and add in my father died when I was 13. Yes, I've had depression but I'm doing better now.

Thank you for your very true and kind words. I do feel the same about being human like you do. I personally find comfort in the idea of the early Christians (who partly believed totally different things than Christians do today). They believed that this world was a fallen world existing under the power of evil - only a shadow of the heavenly realms. In their eyes God was never almighty but the benign power fighting for human beings against the evil destructive forces that torture humans and lead them to destructive feelings and actions. God showed humans a way to enlightenment, to see this life and this world as it really is and to escape this world and its forces to enter again into his realm after death. Every time I feel deeply unhappy in this world - I always have had the feeling that I don´t belong here - I think of it as a prison world from which I am going to escape one day. I wish you all the best for this life here!

Medication masked my feelings and kept me from being able to realize I was surrounded by abusive people. It made it so I was able to be around, and attract, abusive partners, and tolerate toxic work environments. Then I wondered why my trauma was compounded. Medication kept me from recognizing that I was in dangerous and toxic situations that I needed to leave. Which is what caused my depression in the first place. Both of my parents were in deep denial about their own lack of self esteem, and treated us kids like extensions of themselves, whom they thought very little of. And I was the youngest, raised in abuse and neglect by parents who had zero parenting skills, and then proudly let the older siblings raise the younger ones, never stopping constant bullying and sexual abuse. Gee, I wonder why I was depressed? But I was gaslit constantly and told that it was only me. Everyone else in the family was fine. I became scapegoated as I was the only one willing to admit that there was a problem. I was the physical manifestation of all of our family problems. Since the family had no problems it all had to be my fault. And I couldn’t figure out why I was depressed. After all, I was constantly told, we had such a wonderful mother, had a pool in the backyard, lived in California, I was an attractive blonde, so everything was wonderful. If there was anything wrong it was that I was supposedly “spoiled” and “ungrateful,” as clearly I had a magical childhood. I even repeated this to people. I had a perfect childhood. It wasn’t until adulthood that the cracks started to appear. Other siblings had “breakdowns,” which they treated with supplements or blamed on genetics. One was simply dehydrated. One blamed her problems on her bad marriage. It wasn’t until recently when my parents both passed away that I realized that I had had a bad mother. And that our family was toxic. Weird how my “chemical imbalance” is going away now that I’m getting away from my toxic family! Now I’m finally going off of SSRIs, learning HEALTHY coping techniques, seeing how my own behavior has been toxic as well.

He says something so important in this video: while labels FEEL empowering, the last thing you want to do is define yourself according to your “unchangeable” history. Love this! As a teacher it is important to me to stop labeling and start providing a step like process for a student to redefine him, then, herself as successful. To often people who have had very little or no education and experience in psychology use labels to define students. I see so many students even tell me, I can’t help it… I am label.

I have a husband with Parkinson,s decease. Having to be at home constantly is so very hard. I was accustomed to going out daily, just for a break. I don,t drive now, after my husband had an car accident. My daughter helps, but wants to control me. This is hard as I like to be independent. You have just told me the answer. I should have left my husband years ago, however I am eighty five! You have helped me to think of something, I could do! You are brilliant Sir.

I was having a hard time getting into this lecture, but there are a LOT of great insights here. I just reserved one of his books from the library. I am guilty of having unrealistic expectations. I can rationalize away getting myself to exercise. I have gotten so bad that I don’t even want to leave my house. I do work on things. A lot. I’ve learned a lot. It’s the practice of any of it where I get stuck. Finding a good therapist is really hard. I need someone at this man’s level and that’s an unrealistic expectation.

It gave me a lot of hope that things will be fine , this is the one thing that I heard throughout the trip : Everything is alright . The main reason for the trip was my severe depression and it definitely helped me ( although it's not gone ) . Before all I could do was lay in bed .

Most comments here are written by those who suffer from the disease, where as I do not. I wake up, live and then fall asleep each day at peace. I have always maintained an excitement for life and find navigating through the challenges fairly uncomplicated. Unfortunately, my partner, best friend, and love of my life...is the exact opposite. She emphatically struggles with the state of her mental health. We are nearing 20 years together and I have a unique perspective of this disease by riding shotgun with someone who suffers similarly to the rest of you. When our relationship first began, naturally I thought she's crazy and said foolish things like "just calm down" or "why are you acting like that?" On top of that, I gave crap advise like " just don't care about what other people think of you!" These are the types of things we are all conditioned to say, but are not helpful... In time I realized if it were that simple, she would have already done so. As more and more time passed, I began to pick up on her triggers. Discovering what these were played a huge role in helping her maintain an even keel in regards to her emptions. I also learned, to shut up and listen. By listening for hours on end, she began to feel more comfortable telling me her thoughts and troubles. That sense of trust also helped the situation. I know, that no substance or person (including myself) can fix her and it is NOT fair. It just is, what it is. I have learned there are actions we can take to help ease the situation and develop hope towards the prospect of living a fulfilling life. Be empathetic, mindful, compassionate, loving and most of all accepting. Her illness does NOT define her, it is simply a part of who she is and I wouldn't trade her for the world! Take care everyone.

Growing up I never thought I would be someone who would ever get depressed. I had a nice childhood and I saw myself as mentally very strong. I've dealth with difficult stuff like getting bullied, I lost my dad to cancer when I was 16 as well as my grandpa just a year before that for the same reason. After all these things happened I still considered myself a strong person and I still had never felt any sort of true depression. I felt like I dealth with these things in a very healthy way. Now this is where I wish I could have someone explain to me what happened. Because at the age of 18 I over worked myself and became burned out at school, so I had to stay at home to get better. I went to therapy and my doctor prescribed me anti-depressants for my burnout. I was extremely naive back then so I just completely trusted my doctor without any questions. After I took the FIRST anti-depressant pill, I woke up in the middle of the night and had my first ever depressive episode and panic attack. I had suicidal thoughts that I never had before in my entire life. Now we're 8 years later and I'm still dealing with this depression trying to get better... I just want to know what caused my depression. Was it the anti-depressant? This has literally ruined my life.

I've always been anxious but it's now to an extend where I can't sleep and I'm nauseous day and night , no appetite etc but I'm HAPPY cause I have my babyboy..I'm just anxious and scared of losing him, or him losing me.

Absolutely. Rockefeller did not care about the masses when he made sure, back in the early 1900s ... the medical system would use pills and other methods to stifle what the body is trying to tell us. Go with your gut! Those chemicals are no good for the body and the body was never meant to have them in them. Nature is the best healer in every way. Whether it be grounding and being Barefoot outside, connecting with animals or children and other high vibrational beings... connecting to your Source Creator and recognizing that we have ancestors angels and guides that are always waiting to speak to you when we listen, which comes through meditation. The mind is a computer brain that has been subconsciously programmed without our knowledge. Doctors have no damn clue most of the time about anything, they're not here to heal, they just suppress. I'm grateful that you had a reaction to those pills because they do not belong in the body. Try some energy healing, cranial sacral therapy... energy test anything that goes in your body. I never heard of a pill for Burnout LOL think of how funny that sounds! Why wouldn't he say to start putting yourself first, start saying no to others at boundaries to family and friends that do not have your best interest at heart, do things that bring you joy, eat a pure diet, eliminate heavy metal toxicity, parasites and nanoparticles in the body.. eat a diet that feeds the brain properly, no packages, cans, or wrappers.. stay away from canola and other seed oils... you are likely a high vibrational being such as myself and any man-made junk, even seedless food which was altered by man... does not agree well with the body.. Foods carry a vibrational frequency, words also.. the world around us has been deliberately created without our knowledge to keep us negative, sick, and focused on feelings of black and limitation. So.. how do you speak about yourself? How do you speak about others?. we are all energy frequency and vibration. What we work with and manifest in the metaphysical Realms will come to fruition in the Physical realms, not the other way around They don't want us to know how powerful and Sovereign we are.. detach from the society we were born into as much as you can, that is where true Freedom lies. You do not have to work hard, you can make money work for you, when you release and trust and surrender to the universe and let it bring to you what is supposed to flow in, recognizing that everything is just meant for lessons.. whether it be people or situations... the peace is indescribable.

@@Sarahs-we3iu you do not need to take that medication. Anxiety is not a diagnosis, it's the fact that we are believing the thoughts we think without realizing we can change them in a split second. Thoughts become things. So once we gain control of our thoughts we can change everything around us, including our vibrational frequency, and our cellular health within. Thoughts alone can heal your body and can heal others, Placebo effects are real but it's actually much more than that. Learn about vibrational frequency, through Wayne dyer, Abraham hicks, Jake Ducey, any of those types of people. And get to know that your body will always speak to you by whatever it's revealing to you. There is actually no such thing as loss, nothing is ever lost because we live in a spiritual realm but we think all there is is the physical. And you will absolutely create whatever you think. If you think something is going to happen you actually bring it to fruition, what you fear, you will create the situation to bring to you exactly what you fear. You actually are that powerful, people were trained since before they were born to believe they were victims and things are happening to them, when in reality, things are actually happening FOR them, either to make them stronger, to help them evolve and grow.. gratefulness for every situation that shows up will bring amazing things to you. There is nothing that is bad and nothing that is good, it is only perceptual shifts that are needed. You can find resources all over KZread For What I'm saying. Doctors do not know what they are doing because they have been indoctrinated and they are only "practicing medicine", remember.. on you. They have no idea that you are energetic being, a beautiful strong light that will get dimmed anytime there are toxic substances around you or in you. There are always side effects. Get out in nature, get barefoot, get grounded, put on high vibrational music, what you surround yourself with and what you see you will absolutely become. Ask your angels and your guides and your ancestors to guide you. Your guardian angel is always there.

I’ve had depression for a long time and I was skeptical after his first “thesis statement” when he said “yes, yes, yes yes” to depression being treatable and preventable. But had to listen to the whole thing because he has studied it for 40 yrs. Turns out I agree with everything. My depression is a result of the exact processes he described. I feel like depression is a condition that is a result of how I think, but not a description of what or who I am. I am not depression and I don’t “Have” depression, but I am prone to depression as a result of how I process information and what stories I choose to tell myself and choose to believe. This is a relief and I’m excited to try this new approach. Rumination is useless unless it leads to an action.

Jesus loves you so much, so much that He died on the cross for you. He is the answer to everything and is our only blessed hope in this fallen world. He wants to save and heal you and have a personal relationship with you. Make Him your personal Lord and Saviour today. Tomorrow is not guaranteed and the pre tribulation rapture and His return is imminent! ABCs of salvation: Admit you are a sinner and have made mistakes. Repent (turn away) from your sins. Believe that Jesus is Gods’ Son, died on the cross for you and from rose from the dead on the third day. Confess Jesus as The Lord of your life and commit yourself to a life of following Jesus and serving others. Get water baptised and receive the gift of the Holy Spirit who will help you to do that. Get a KJV Bible, start by reading the gospel of John then the rest of the Bible. You will learn all about God, His love for all of His creation, how to obey Him and hear His voice and how to overcome everything until we go home to be with Him forever in heaven. Romans 10:9-10 KJV [9] That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. [10] For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

Nick Lloyd, Develop your mental muscles from within. Detox the mind. Reduce negative thoughts with a simple practice. Your breath is directly related to your mind [brain] causing negative thoughts-anxiety. For a relaxed life sit on a chair, back straight, eyes closed, be as still as possible and observe the sensations of your incoming--outgoing breath at the entrance of the nostrils for around 5-10-15 minutes or more. Don’t fight with your thoughts. Slowly the mind will relax. No deep breathing needed. Anytime of the day or night before sleep sit or lie down on your back and observe your breath. Stillness brings internal peace. Like me, make this a lifetime daily habit to have a good life. Best wishes Shyaaam Sir. -Counsellor. Strictly avoid being constipated.

This is the best explanation for a path to recovery that I have ever had the privilege to learn from.

Keep going and remember that it will get better. That helped me a lot. That and the learning how to love the small things. You’re never alone. People go through depression all of the time. Stay close to what makes you feel good. Be it the smallest thing. Love to you all x

I've learned from having depression most of my life that people avoid you because they can't deal with you when you're having an especially bad day. Even people who themselves struggle with depression. It just magnifies the isolation and loneliness. And the people who allegedly know you are surprised if you develop an addiction or engage in dangerous behavior or start feeling suicidal. Human contact can not be replaced.

It seems like a vicious cycle to me. I've found that quite a few friends and family members will listen but can't seem to really empathize. We isolate because people are scared of we who are depressed and think it WILL be contagious. When truthfully, so many of us would just like someone to take us out to lunch or just come over with some soup and a hug. I wish more people would understand that it's hard enough for us to get out of bed, much less socialize. A good, caring support system is so important. Unfortunately I don't have one.

@@amg726 Sometimes I think it’s also important to accept that empathize and communicate can also take a lot of energy for some people, even for those that doesn’t seem to suffer. Everyone have a lot of problems on their hands and it can be tough for them to juggle everything. Not even mentioning that without effective communication from all parties, some ppl probably doesn’t even know what to do in the situation, esp. when they have never been taught about it. For example, when we want someone to take us for lunch, they probably don’t know that that’s what we wanted.

@@langletprolet8378 Sure, I agree! I was talking about friends and family who DO know that you're depressed. And also sometimes even when we do express the need for companionship, they don't seem to get it. Perhaps you're right that some people just don't have that much empathy.

@@amg726 Yes, unfortunately that’s what I was trying to get at. Which is why the advice on this lecture on realistic expectations is very, very important. I’m trying to be honest, sympathy is easy, but empathy is the opposite. It takes experience, time, teaching, etc. It’s easy to say “We’re here for you, you’re not alone keep fighting,”, etc. especially on the internet but acting on it is in another level. For example, it’s easy to feel empathy on the passing of a loved one, cus almost everyone knows how it feels. But depression is very unique to each one, and made harder when most ppl are not taught on how to help properly. While I have some symptoms of mood disorder, it is my sister who definitely has a higher level and risk factor. I always try to have fun with her and accompany her, but I gotta be honest, it’s super difficult when the going gets rough when her mood and lack of stress management has taken a negative effect on her academic life. It takes a lot of patience especially cus I have my own problems to deal with. I have hope that it can get better, but still very much unsure if I have helped properly or even enough.

Hello 👋

Isn’t it true that during times of depression it’s easier to care for another than for ourselves!? And the magic is that, in caring for another we also care for and become aware of our own needs! Giving support and help to another can feed our souls. And leave us feeling empowered and important!
